Jack Dyson (8 July 1934 – 22 November 2000) was both an English first-class cricketer and a professional footballer.
He started his sporting career as a footballer and spent four seasons with Manchester City during which time he played 62 matches and scored 26 goals.
A right-handed batsman and handy offspinner, he made his first-class debut in 1954, playing with Lancashire.
[4] Dyson was a controversial figure throughout his career, he was a free spirit and it ended up costing him his job at Lancashire.
In 1960 the Lancashire committee charged him with "a serious breach of discipline and an act of insubordination and insolence to the captain".
