Career
After leaving the club in May 1909, Parry along with the then Liverpool captain Alex Raisbeck joined Scottish side Partick. Parry played for Wales on 14 occasions making his debut against Ireland on the 23 March 1901 in a British Championship match. After leaving Thistle Parry went into coaching and got a post in South Africa but moved back to Oswestry to take up a role with Oswestry Town.
Parry then, like many others, was affected by the Great War of 1914/1918 where he was badly gassed, but he returned to his passion after the war taking the managerial post at Rotherham County, who later merged with Rotherham Town to form Rotherham United in 1925.
Parry then took up coaching roles with the more impressive clubs of Barcelona in Spain and both Eintracht Frankfurt and 1. Football Club Köln in Germany before returning to the British Isles taking up a coaching role on the Channel Islands.
Parry"s association with the Anfield club was to be reunited when he took up a coaching role at Liverpool quite some time after leaving in 1909. He died in nearby Bootle.
Parry"s brother Thomas was also a Wales international: the two brothers played together for their country four times.
