James "Jimmy" Hanson (6 November 1904 – unknown) was an English football forward. Born in Manchester, he played for Bradford Parish Church in the Cheshire Amateur League early in his career. In December 1922, someone wrote in to the Manchester Football News, recommending Hanson to Manchester United.[citation needed] After trials in the 1923–24 season, he joined United in 1924. Hanson played his entire professional career with United. In a match against Birmingham on 25 December 1929, he suffered a broken fibia, and the injury forced him to retire in 1931. During his United career, he scored 52 goals in 147 appearances.
