You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''John Aston''' (3 September 1921 – 31 July 2003) was an English [[association football|footballer]].

Like his son [[John Aston Jr.]], Prestwich-born Aston came through the [[Manchester United F.C.|Manchester United]] youth system and turned professional in December 1939. His debut for the club came almost seven years later, on 18 September 1946, against [[Chelsea F.C.|Chelsea]]. Aston was a strong, tough-tackling [[defender (association football)|left-back]] who also played as a [[centre forward]] for his club on occasion. He won 17 [[England national football team|England]] caps between 1948 and 1950, all at left-back, and featured in the [[1950 FIFA World Cup]]. He played in the [[1948 FA Cup Final]] triumph over [[Blackpool F.C.|Blackpool]] at [[Wembley Stadium (1923)|Wembley Stadium]]. He was forced into retirement in 1954 after contracting [[tuberculosis]],<ref>((cite news |first=Ivan |last=Ponting |title=John Aston |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/obituaries/john-aston-37022.html |work=The Independent |date=30 August 2003 |accessdate=21 April 2023 ))</ref> having scored 30 goals in 284 appearances for Manchester United. Because of the tuberculosis, he had to have a lung removed; he was offered treatment in Switzerland or North Wales, and chose the latter due to its proximity to home and family.<ref>((cite podcast |url=https://www.manutd.com/en/podcast/detail/utd-podcast-series-3-episode-123-with-john-aston-jnr |title=John Aston Jnr – "Bobby, Nobby & 1968" |website=UTD Podcast |publisher=Manchester United |first=Sam |last=Homewood |first2=Helen |last2=Evans |first3=David |last3=May |date=21 June 2022 |time= |access-date=21 April 2023 ))</ref>

Aston returned to the club as youth team coach in the early 1960s and was then chief scout under new manager [[Wilf McGuinness]] in 1969, and had a three-year spell in the position before being sacked along with McGuinness's successor, [[Frank O'Farrell]] in late 1972. Aston was also reserve team manager when McGuinness was manager, although McGuinness became reserve team manager again after he got sacked as manager in December 1970.

Aston died in July 2003 at the age of 81.
