John Johnman (7 June 1900 – 1975) was a Scottish footballer who played mainly as a right back, although he was also used at wing half.
The majority of his career was spent with Motherwell,[2] where he had a part in the team becoming established as one of the best in the country in the late 1920s,[3] eventually took over from Dick Little in his preferred defensive position and featured in the 1931 Scottish Cup Final which the Steelmen lost to Celtic after a replay.[4] [5] He was still with the club when they won the Scottish Football League title in 1931–32, but made no appearances in that season for reasons unclear (Willie Dowall, previously considered a forward, was selected instead) and departed at its end.
Johnman then played in England for two years – one apiece with Stockport County and Halifax Town – before returning north with Dunfermline Athletic.[6]
