Thomas Boyle (21 February 1901 – 9 January 1972) was an English footballer who played as an inside right or right half.
[4] He initially found it difficult to establish himself in the first team, but over time his form improved, particularly his heading, which was a factor in him being selected for the 1925 FA Cup Final ahead of the more experienced Tommy Sampy.
Boyle signed for Manchester United for £2,000, but failed to settle and spent only one relatively unproductive season at Old Trafford in which he made just 17 starts.
[4] In 1935, Boyle was appointed player-manager of non-league Scarborough where he spent a reasonably successful season before retiring.
[4] After leaving Scarborough, Boyle became the licensee of the Plough Inn in nearby Scalby, North Yorkshire.
