Life and career edit
Marshall was born in Sheffield in 1929.[1] After playing youth football for Sheffield United and non-League football for Scarborough, he played in the Football League for Rotherham United, Scunthorpe United and Doncaster Rovers.[1][2][3]
While still a player, Marshall became caretaker manager of Doncaster Rovers between March and April 1962.[4] After retiring as a player, Marshall remained on the staff of Doncaster to act as a coach. Marshall later became assistant manager at Mansfield Town,[5] before moving to Sweden, where he managed IS Halmia from 1974 to 1979[6] and Landskrona BoIS between 1980 and 1981.[citation needed]
Marshall died in Sweden in August 2015 at the age of 86.[7]
