Charles George Wright (born 11 December 1938) is a former professional footballer and manager. Born in Scotland. He gained the name "wonder boy" after a great trial game for Morton against Queens Park (B Division 1955/56). He continued with his juvenile team Glentyan Thistle, playing in the Lord Weir Cup Final at Cathkin Park in June 1956. He was signed by junior team Glencairn Thistle to serve an apprenticeship before moving to Rangers.^[2]

Charlie even headed overseas in Germany and Hong Kong whilst fulfilling his national service where he served within the Border Regiment. He was selected by the Hong Kong national football team to face against Peru during his service where he saved a penalty in which his performance earned him an accolade for "Player of the Year" by fans.^[3]

Wright was caretaker manager and then manager of Bolton Wanderers in the 1984–85 season. His first game as full-time manager was a 2–0 win against Plymouth Argyle. However, he was quickly replaced by ex-Liverpool and England defender Phil Neal.^{[citation needed]}
