John George Peart (3 October 1888 – 3 September 1948) was an English footballer who played centre forward for 13 different teams in a career which spanned World War I. After he retired, he became a football manager until he died in 1948.
Peart was a centre-forward who had a nomadic career. He played for eight league clubs in a career which spanned 19 years and every division of the English Football League. He also played non-League football in the Southern and Welsh leagues, as well as guesting for other clubs during the First World War. Peart was known as the 'most injured man in football', his worst injury being a broken leg in 1910 at Stoke, which kept him out of football for two seasons.[2] As a manager, he spent a further 25 years in the Football League, and took charge at Rochdale, Bradford City, and Fulham. He won two minor league titles with Stoke, won the Second Division with Notts County in 1913–14, and led Rochdale to second place in the Third Division North in 1923–24 and 1926–27.
