Martin Osborne Johnson CBE (born 9 March 1970) is a former rugby union footballer who represented and captained England and Leicester. He will become the new England team manager on the 1st July 2008 replacing the current manager Brian Ashton. Regarded as one of the greatest locks to have ever played, Johnson led the England side to a Grand Slam and World Cup victory in 2003. He toured three times with the British and Irish Lions, becoming the only man to have captained them on two separate tours. He also led his club Leicester Tigers to back-to back Heineken Cup victories and won the league six times. Despite no coaching experience, he was appointed team manager of the national England rugby Union side in April 2008.

The 2003 final between Australia and England was played at Sydney's Telstra Stadium in front of a crowd of 82,957. England won 20-17 after extra time thanks to a drop goal by Johnny Wilkinson in the dying seconds. Three days after the final, the new World Champion England team landed at Heathrow Airport in the early hours of the morning, emerging from their plane to a huge reception, despite the time. On December 8 a national day of celebration took place in the form of a massive victory parade in the streets of London.
