Title: english managers abroad... Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, November 15, 2007, 18:53:06 David Platt had a brief stint at Sampdoria
Title: english managers abroad... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, November 15, 2007, 18:59:09 There's been a fair few....eg Bobby Houghton who was memorably complicit in Shitty's drop through 4 leagues in 4 years.....took Malmo to the Euro cup final.
Howard Kendall and Ron Atkinson both had spells in Spain. David Platt controversially had a go with Samp. Gordon Milne....had a few clubs and was successful in Turkey where Souness did a stint. Daddy of the lot was George Raynor who took Sweden to the 58 WC final. Is it important as I think of some more if it is? Title: english managers abroad...

I almost made the very same mistake Title: english managers abroad... Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, November 15, 2007, 19:19:19 I think if they've managed in English football then they sort of qualify as an "English" manager abroad.

I think we all know McMoan's whereabouts, but the presumption is that football in the penal colonies isn't top flight. Hence why no-one has mentioned Terry Butcher. BTW if you're not a Swindon fan WTF are you doing on here? Title: english managers abroad... Post by: Simon Pieman on Sunday, December 2, 2007, 23:10:18 I've been reading about Willy Garbutt, so I thought I'd dig this thread up again.
Apparently he created the blueprint for Italian football coaching. |
