Robert Walker (English footballer)Robert Walker (Newton Heath footballer) – Incomplete disambiguation. The current title is ambiguous with Robert Walker (footballer, born 1884), and the only information know about this footballer is that he played for Newton Heath. We don't know his years of birth or death, or even whether he was English, as the current title assumes.
The former Newton Heath FC was renamed to Manchester United F.C. in 1902, after this player's time, so it seems to me to be an anachronism to use Manchester United as a disambiguator ... but if editors prefer to use ManU, I'll go with that as better than the current incomplete disambiguation.
