• Keep There are bits and pieces for him, [1] (little note about charging admission), There is enough information in two books; the first (Dean, Rod (1991). Coventry City: a complete record, 1883-1991. Derby: Breedon Books. ISBN 9780907969884.) and the second. (Brassington, David (1989). Singers to Sky Blues: The story of Coventry City Football Club (2 ed.). Buckingham: Sporting and Leisure Press Limited. ISBN 9780860234524.). Which talks about the manager and his time at the club. There are probably newspaper articles to consider during his time at the club for the period. Just because the article is a stub doesn't mean sources do not exist. WP:OFFLINESOURCES do exist.

• Keep as he seemed to have an important role in the History_of_Coventry_City_F.C.#1883–1898:_Singers_F.C.. There's 300+ hits for "J G Morgan" in the Coventry area on the British Newspaper Archive. James George Morgan died 24 May 1935 aged 79. Apart from his time at Coventry FC, he seems to have been quite active in the Coventry area: Deacon of his local church; charitable work for the local hospital; helped set up the local football challenge cup; associated with Coventry engineering industry; and also cycles and motorcars. Most of this was mentioned in his obituary. The latter I'm assuming from "Coventry's Motorcar Heritage" but I don't have full access to the book Piecesofuk (talk) 18:53, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
