Joseph A. Bradshaw (1860–1933) was an English football manager who managed Stoke.[1]
Bradshaw was born in Stoke-upon-Trent and took over from Harry Lockett as Stoke manager in June 1890.[1] Stoke had just finished bottom of the Football League for the second time and failed to be re-elected, instead joining the Football Alliance.[1] Whilst Stoke had struggled to compete in the League they found the Alliance easy ending the 1890–91 season as champions with just two defeats and re-claimed their place in the Football League.[1] But halfway through the 1891–92 campaign with the team struggling, he left his position to be replaced by Arthur Reeves.[1]
