Celtic's first genuine coach was the venerable Jimmy Hogan who had earned a great European reputation in Austria. He came to Celtic in 1948 (at an advanced age in his late 60s) and did effect some changes in Celtic's outlook. Unfortunately, many Scottish players seemed resistant to coaching. The only two who went on to become coaches themselves were Johnny Paton (Arsenal) and Tommy Docherty. Hogan's greatest success was in converting Bobby Evans (a utility forward)_ into a world-class wing half.
George Paterson, left half in the Empire Exhibition Trophy winners of 1938, returned as a coach in the early 1950s. |
