Frank Brennan was a tough centre half who moved to Newcastle United from Airdrieonians
Frank Brennan was a tough centre half who moved to Newcastle United from Airdrieonians for 7, 500 in 1946. He made his debut for the club against Millwall in August 1946 and appeared on 351 occasions for the Magpies between 1946 and 1956.
Brennan moved into management after his playing retirement, initially with North Shields between 1956 and 1962, then in Singapore and Trinidad. He returned to North Shields in 1967 and helped them to victory in the 1969 FA Amateur Cup. He was appointed manager of Darlington in August 1971 but stayed in the post for only three months before joining South Shields in a coaching role in 1972.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Frank Brennan, a formidable centre half who made his mark in football history. Born in Airdrieonians, Brennan's talent caught the attention of Newcastle United, leading to his transfer for £7,500 in 1946. His debut match against Millwall in August that year marked the beginning of an illustrious career with the Magpies. Over a decade, Brennan graced the field on 351 occasions for Newcastle United, leaving an indelible impact as a tenacious defender. However, his contributions did not end there. Following retirement from playing professionally, he ventured into management and guided North Shields between 1956 and 1962 before embarking on coaching roles abroad in Singapore and Trinidad. Intriguingly enough, fate brought him back to North Shields in 1967 where he played a pivotal role in their triumph at the prestigious FA Amateur Cup of 1969. This achievement solidified his reputation as both player and manager. The photograph captures Frank Brennan during his tenure as manager of North Shields on May 12th, 1972. It serves as a testament to his enduring passion for football and dedication to nurturing young talents within the sport. Frank Brennan's legacy remains etched within football folklore—a true icon whose influence transcends borders and generations alike.
