Howard Charles Slade (29 January 1891 – 7 April 1971) was a professional footballer, who played for Aston Villa, Huddersfield Town, Middlesbrough and Darlington. While at Huddersfield he won the 1921–22 FA Cup and the 1922 FA Charity Shield.[2]
Slade was working as a scout for Crystal Palace when manager Ronnie Rooke resigned, in 1950.[3] Palace appointed Slade as joint-manager with long-serving player, and Rooke's assistant, Fred Dawes. However the club had a poor 1950–51 season and early into the next campaign Dawes and Slade were removed from their positions.[3]
Slade reverted to his position as a scout and remained with Palace until 1955.[3]
