During the 1928–29 season Nelson Football Club played as a professional team in the Football League for the eighth time. After playing without a team manager during the previous season Jack English was appointed to the post in the summer of 1928 following the club’s successful re-election application. A record of 17 wins 5 draws and 20 defeats giving a total of 39 points helped Nelson to a 15th-placed finish in the Third Division North above Rotherham United on goal average.
