'''Herbert Bamlett''' (1 March 1882 – October 1941) was an English [[association football|football]] manager and [[Referee (association football)|referee]].
In 1909, Bamlett refereed the [[FA Cup]] fourth round tie between [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] and [[Burnley F.C.|Burnley]], but called the game off with only 18 minutes left and the score at 1–0 to Burnley due to heavy snow. United won the rearranged game 3–2 and went on to win the FA Cup for the first time. He also refereed the 1914 match between [[Scotland national football team|Scotland]] and [[England national football team|England]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Red Life Managers |url=http://www.btinternet.com/~c.beirne/managers.html |archive-url=https://archive.today/20121015175736/http://www.btinternet.com/~c.beirne/managers.html |archive-date=15 October 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref> At the end of that season, at the age of 32, Bamlett was appointed to referee the [[1914 FA Cup Final]] between [[Liverpool F.C.|Liverpool]] and Burnley.<ref name="Butler">{{cite book |last=Butler |first=Bryon |title=100 Seasons of League Football |year=1998 |publisher=Queen Anne Press |location=England |isbn=1852915951 |pages=392 }}</ref>
That same year, Bamlett took over as manager at [[Oldham Athletic A.F.C.|Oldham Athletic]], where he stayed for seven years before moving on to [[Wigan Borough F.C.|Wigan Borough]] (1921–1923) and [[Middlesbrough F.C.|Middlesbrough]] (1923–1926). After taking a break from the game, he was named manager of [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] in April 1927.<ref name="Butler"/> He remained there until 1931, when his contract was not renewed following United's relegation. The club lost 12 consecutive matches that season and was strapped for cash after the death of owner [[John Henry Davies]].<ref name="Butler"/><ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2020/jan/18/ole-gunnar-solskjaer-not-right-manager-manchester-united|title=Ole Gunnar Solskjær is not the right manager for Manchester United|last=Wilson|first=Jonathan|date=18 January 2020|work=The Guardian|issn=0261-3077}}</ref>
