Former Celtic manager Martin O'Neil has come out of retirement and is apparently job hunting (although the source is football insider so....)

Samson Siasia in DB as unemployed coach, is banned from football until August 2024. Suggest removal, restore if and when he returns to the game.

Terry Cooper (free scout in DB) has passed away.

DONE

(Not the Scottish Scouts though)

Here2Win79 · Post by **Here2Win79** » Fri Aug 06, 2021 6:44 pm

As the Scottish scouts are causing so much difficulty in that format, please see attached in uploadable to db format.

I have added dob where possible, otherwise left blank. I have cross checked to ensure no duplication with people in Apr 21 db.

Possible issues: I don't know whether these upload sheets use club long name or short name so that will need to be checked; where a club already has seven scouts on db I don't know whether this sheet would be rejected or mess anything up

Abilities and reps have been left blank for you

SteveHarle · Post by **SteveHarle** » Fri Aug 06, 2021 7:01 pm

It’s nothing to do with the format, the difficulty is we don’t have enough people on the team to pick it all up at the moment, lots to do preparing for next season

There is a staff member in the db called Robert Mendy, who is manager of "Mantes" with a birth year of "56" (ie not "1956" just 56). I presume he should be updated to be this guy, with the club being "Mantois":

OLD STAFF in DB, some unsurprising news, source is Transfermarkt unless linked

Igor Volchok RIP

Hasan Meric Uyan RIP https://www.hurriyet.com.tr/turk-futbol ... i-22265897

Marcel De Conte RIP

The Chairman of Vegalta Sendai according to Wiki is Tomohiro Sasaki; whilst I'm sure the Japanese diet is keeping 85 year old Akira Kyogoku hale and hearty, he can perhaps be removed from the db

This guy sounds interesting, but no longer required in db: Guillermo Héctor Álvarez Cuevas (born 8 September 1945 in Jasso), better known as Billy Álvarez, is the former general director of La Cooperativa La Cruz Azul S.C.L., former president of the Mexican football club Cruz Azul, former footballer,[2] and wanted fugitive. Álvarez Cuevas is currently wanted by Interpol in 195 countries on various crimes including multiple accounts of racketeering, money laundering, and extortion.[3][4][5] . On July 26, an arrest warrant was issued for Alvarez along with board directors Victor Manuel Garcés, Miguel Eduardo Borrell, and Mario Sánchez Álvarez for alleged ties to organized crime.[91][92] Alvarez subsequently resigned from his position at the club in August 2020 after 32 years as acting president.[93] Interpol is currently searching for Alvarez in 195 countries and as of June 2, 2021, remains at large.[94]
The current El Presidente of Cruz Azul is given on Wiki as Álvaro Dávila

I have my doubts that 86 year old Günay Kayarlar is coaching at Istanbulspor - Turkish sites that go through his career chronologically suggest he left there around 2004 to coach at Galatasary's academy although he seems to have left that post around 2017 and might have gone back to Istanbulspor

Na Mu Suk may still be the General Manager of Gwangiu at 84, but I think he can be deleted without impact

Kim Hyung-Byuk appears to no longer be chairman of Ulsan. Sources indicate he was replaced by Sum Jung-gai

Savvas Theodoridis RIP

84 year old Enjo Costamilan can be deleted from Caxias Managing Director position without any issues

The chairman of Seongnam is Eun Su-mi rather than Park Kyoo-Nam

Derek Wilshaw left Altrincham in 2019 and can be deleted

Istvan Sztani is retired. He left the club he is with in the db in 2001

John Jespers is referred to as a former secretary of Hoogstraten in a FB post so can be deleted

Mingshan Yin is no longer involved with Chongqing - their Chairman is Jiang Lizhang who apparently has an investment in Granada also

Here2Win79 · Post by **Here2Win79** » Sat Aug 14, 2021 7:52 pm

Eduardo Barredo "El Gemelu" can be removed as a manager. From the Spanish," At 81 years old, he continues to watch football every day and has a weekly section in a program (Game of two - "Connection Oviedo") on EsAsturiasTV, where he analyzes the day, mainly in relation to Real Oviedo."

The President of Al Hilal (KSA) is given as Fahad bin Nafil Alotaibi on wiki - incumbent in the db Abdual Rahman Saeed founded the club in 1957 so may have moved on to newer ventures or his 72 raisins by now

Alan Vest (see my vest, see my vest, made from real gorilla chest) is retired. "He finished his coaching interests with short spells at Inglewood Kiev and ECU Joondalup.
"I still keep tabs on what's going on locally, but these days I like most of all watching my grandson Christian playing juniors with Balcatta," he said."

Wiki gives the chairman of Vissel Kobe as Katsuya Ishiyama rather than a now 82 year old Haruo Nakano

82 year old Roberto Saporiti has not managed a club since 2009 and can be deleted

I might have already removed him on the Scotland page, but if not Alex Smith, on the board of Falkirk in the db, retired to Oz in 2018

Here2Win79 · Post by **Here2Win79** » Sat Aug 14, 2021 8:39 pm

Mark Godik retired in 2002 https://translate.google.com/translate? ... ch&pto=aue

Is unemployed manager "Hadj Mansour" in the db this guy: https://www.transfermarkt.com/said-hadj ... iner/25730 ? If so, YOB is out by 7 years although either way the db will retire him immediately anyway

I believe Chorley DoF Brian Pilkington has passed away, although the guy who passed was 86 whilst the guy in the db would be 80. https://www.chorleyfc.com/2020/02/07/li ... on-passes/

José Ricardo Fernández retired in 2011 from Celta

Augusto Reina, Caronnese, RIP. https://www.varesenews.it/2020/02/addio ... la/902312/

This Alessandro Innocenti has the same day of birth as the one on the db but is a lot younger and has a job - are they the same guy: https://www.transfermarkt.com/alessandr ... iner/13839

Leon Semmeling doesn't seem to be involved with football any more, and doesn't seem to be on the staff of Vise - see here to update: https://urslvise.be/staff/

Denis Maslov is President of Torpedo Moscow; I'm not sure if Boris Ignatiev is still on the board, wiki suggests he left in 2018

I think "Lufa Kadoch" might be this chap, who passed away in 2014. The birthdate matches and the name is close: https://www.maccabi-tlv.co.il/en/2014/0 ... 1940-2014/

I can't find any evidence that 81 year old Marijan Jantoljak is involved with Rijeka's coaching staff

Jan Jongbloed appears to have retired from coaching in 2010

Jesus Polo is no longer el Presidente of Leganes although the stadium is named after him. They have a chairlady, Victoria Pavón Palomo.

Mino Favini RIP

Kazuo Imanishi (Sanfrecce) is retired

Non-Player Antônio Lopes dos Santos Antônio Lopes 12 6 1922 1922 Brazil _NONE Club 1st _NONE _NONE General 1. Manager
can be deleted

Hernán Godoy is retired

Warwick Rimmer - oh how bitter his days in the playground must have been - seems to have departed Tranmere's academy a good few years ago as indicated by this article: https://www.theboltonnews.co.uk/sport/1 ... -tranmere/

Chan Hung Ping is the Technical Director at Lee Man (HK) rather than an unemployed manager

Egil Olsen is retired

Finn Secher Silkeborg >>> Kolding IF

Luc Verhalle - can anyone verify his existence? I found a linkedin from a person claiming to be manager of KFC Dessel Sport for the last 9 years (spoiler; he isn't) and this very intriguing headline, "Luc Verhalle, Kris Van Dijck's father-in-law, has responded to the scandal surrounding benefit fraud with an escort lady." Other than that I couldn't find anything verifying the existence of a football manager of this name

Valeri Nepomnyashchiy should have second nat Turkmenistan

Takaji Mori died in 2011. RIP. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Takaji_Mori

If someone with more knowledge of Spanish football can confirm if this guy is still in that role. I found an interview that suggested he held it at Coruna's peak, which was some time ago
Non-Player Eduardo López Beci Beci 13 12 1924 1924 Spain _NONE Club 1st Deportivo Spanish Second Division B1 General 1. Manager

Chairman Rijeka is in as an Italian called Gabriele - no surname. Based on wiki I presume this was Gabrile Volpi. However, " On 29 December 2017 it was announced that chairman Damir Mišković, through London-based Teanna Limited, acquired the majority stake in the club from Stichting Social Sport Foundation" - please delete Gabriele and make Damir Miskovic the Chairman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damir_Mi%C5%A1kovi%C4%87

Although Maurice Cooreman is shown as still with Gombe Utd on TM, Wiki shows he left there in 2014 and his last job was in Nigeria in 2017. It is likely he is unofficially retired. Recommend removal.
