.
William Ambrose Wright was born in Ironbridge, Shropshire, the son of an iron worker, and his love of soccer almost coincided with his discovery of how to walk. As a lad he played regularly with the other lads on the ash tips near his home.
At school his talent began to blossom and it was soon apparent that young Billy had that extra something which marked him down as a footballer of well-above-average promise. And even more imporant, there were the obvious signs in his temperament and make-up that marked him down as à future leader,
