Sir Alexander Matthew “Matt” Busby, CBE, KCSG (26 May 1909 – 20 January 1994) was a Scottish football player and manager, most noted for managing Manchester United between 1945 and 1969 and again for the second half of the 1970–1971 season.

Born to Alexander and Nellie Busby in a two-roomed pitman’s cottage in the mining village of Orbiston, Bellshill, North Lanarkshire, Busby was raised a practising Roman Catholic of Lithuanian ancestry. Busby’s father – a miner – was killed by a German sniper during the First World War at the Battle of the Somme, while three of his uncles were killed in France with the Cameron Highlanders.

Busby would often accompany his father down into the coal pits, but his true aspiration was to become a professional footballer. In his 1973 autobiography Busby described himself as being as football mad as any other boy in Bellshill citing in particular the impression made on him by Alex James and Hughie Gallacher.

His mother might have quashed those dreams when she applied to emigrate with Matt to the United States, but he was granted a reprieve by the nine-month processing time. In the meantime, Busby got a full-time job as a collier and played football part-time for Stirlingshire side Denny Hibs. He had only played a few matches for Denny Hibs, but it was not long before he was signed up by a Manchester City side that was a couple of games away from regaining promotion to the First Division.

Aged 17, Busby signed for Manchester City on a one-year contract worth £5 per week on 11 February 1928, with the provision for him to leave at the end of the deal if he still wished to emigrate to the United States with his mother. He decided to stay and made his debut for City on 2 November 1929, more than 18 months after first signing for the Blues, when he played at inside left in a 3–1 win at home to Middlesbrough in the First Division. He made 11 more appearances for City that season, all at inside forward, scoring five goals in the process.

During the 1930–31 season, City manager Peter Hodge decided that Busby’s talents could be better exploited from the half-back line,^[3]with Busby playing the right-half role. In his new position, Busby built up a reputation as an intelligent player and a finer passer of the ball. In 1930, Manchester United made an enquiry about signing Busby from their cross-town rivals, but they were unable to afford the £150 fee that City demanded. By the 1931–32 season, Busby was firmly established in the first team, missing just one match that season. Indeed, Busby and Jackie Bray became such fixtures at wing-half that club captain Jimmy McMullan had to move to forward to keep his place in the team. In the 1930s Manchester City performed strongly in the FA Cup. They reached the semi-finals in 1932, and the final in 1933 before finally winning the tournament in 1934. However, from the second half of the 1934–35 season, Busby’s number 4 jersey was worn by Jack Percival with increasing regularity, and Busby was sold to Liverpool for £8,000 on 12 March 1936, having made more than 200 appearances for Manchester City.

He made his debut for the Reds just two days later, on 14 March, away to Huddersfield Town; the match ended in a 1-0 Liverpool defeat. Busby opened his goalscoring account a month later – his 47th minute strike helped his team to a 2–2 draw with Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park. Busby soon made the number 4 shirt his own, ousting Ted Savage in the process. He rarely missed a game over the following three seasons. This consistency earned Busby the Liverpool captaincy and he led the club with great distinction.

Busby made only one “official” international appearance for Scotland; he played in a 3-2 British Home Championship defeat to Wales at Ninian Park, Cardiff, on 4 October 1933. He also made seven appearances for Scotland against England during the Second World War, winning just one of them, but these are considered unofficial.

During the Second World War, Busby served as a football coach in the Army Physical Training Corps, and the experience resulted in Liverpool offering him the job of assistant to their then-manager George Kay. However, the experience also forged Busby’s opinions about how football should be played and governed, and when it became clear that they differed from those of the Liverpool board, their chairman Billy McConnell allowed Busby to pursue alternate employment.

After Manchester United had tried to sign Busby from Manchester City in 1930, he became good friends with United’s fixer, Louis Rocca; their relationship was helped in part by the fact that both were members of the Manchester Catholic Sportsman’s Club. United were in desperate need of a manager to take over from club secretary Walter Crickmer after the war and a board meeting was called in December 1944 so as to ascertain who that new manager might be. Knowing that Liverpool had already offered Busby a job, Rocca convinced the United board to “leave it to [him]” and immediately wrote a letter to Busby, addressed to his army regiment. The letter was vague, referring only to “a job”, just in case it fell into the wrong hands, namely the Liverpool officials.

In February 1945, still in uniform, Busby turned up at Cornbrook Cold Storage, one of the United chairman James W. Gibson’s businesses at Trafford Park to discuss the contents of Rocca’s letter with the chairman. Busby requested that he be directly involved in training, pick the team on matchdays and even choose the players to be bought and sold without interference from the club directors, who, he believed, did not know the game as well as he did. Such a level of control over the team was unprecedented in the English game, but the United chairman was in no position to argue. Busby was originally offered a three-year contract, but managed to secure himself a five-year deal after explaining that it would take at least that long for his revolution to have a tangible effect.

The contract was signed that day – 19 February 1945 – but it was not until 1 October that Busby officially took over the reins at Manchester United. In the interim, he returned to the Army Physical Training Corps, whose football team he took to Bari, Italy, in the spring of 1945. There, he took in a training session for a football team made up of non-commissioned officers led by West Bromwich Albion’s former half-back Jimmy Murphy. Impressed by the Welshman’s oratory skills, Busby engaged him in conversation and offered him the job of assistant manager at Manchester United, which Murphy accepted there and then.

The two men immediately put their mark on the side, leading them to the runners-up spot in the league, behind Busby’s former employers Liverpool, by the end of the 1946-47 season. Manchester United were runners-up in the league in 1947, 1948, 1949 and 1951, and won the FA Cup in 1948, before winning the league championship in 1952. By this stage, the side, captained by Johnny Carey, was beginning to show its age, and a new set of players had to be found. Busby, who had achieved a great deal of success in spite of his lack of previous managerial experience, was expected to spend large sums of money on high profile players. Instead, he gradually replaced the older players with players as young as 16 and 17. These included right-back Bill Foulkes, centre-halves Mark Jones and Jackie Blanchflower, wingers Albert Scanlon and David Pegg and forward Liam Whelan. Among them was Duncan Edwards, judged by many to be England’s finest player of his era, and capped by England at 18 – setting a record for the youngest-ever full international that remained unbroken for more than 40 years.

Busby managed the Great Britain team at the 1948 Summer Olympics. The team reached the semi-finals, but lost 3–1 to the eventual runners-up, Yugoslavia.

During this period, the team picked up the affectionate nickname the Busby Babes, because of the youthfulness of many of the players he fielded. They won the league in both 1956 and 1957, and were runners-up to Aston Villa in the 1957 FA Cup Final. The young side was so successful that centre-forward Tommy Taylor and goalkeeper Harry Gregg were United’s only major signings over a spell of four years.

Busby and his team began the 1957-58 season full of ambition for an assault on the Football League title, FA Cup and European Cup. On the way home from a European Cup tie against Red Star Belgrade on 6 February 1958, their plane crashed on the runway at Munich Airport. Seven players and three club officials were among the 23 people who were killed at the scene; Duncan Edwards died from his injuries two weeks later, while two other players were injured to such an extent that they never played football again. Busby suffered multiple injuries and twice received the Last Rites, but he recovered from his injuries and left hospital after nine weeks.

He was not aware of the extent of the Munich tragedy until some weeks after the crash, as doctors felt he was not strong enough to know the truth until then. He reportedly told his wife Jean that he felt like quitting the manager’s job, as he had feelings of guilt over the disaster (he had gone against Football League officials wishes by pressing for Manchester United’s participation in the European Cup, and had not felt able to challenge the aircraft’s pilot about taking off in heavy snow), but his wife urged him to carry on with his duties in honour of the players who had died.

After the crash, Busby built a new side around Munich survivors including Harry Gregg, Bobby Charlton and Bill Foulkes. He also brought in players from other clubs – these included David Herd, Albert Quixall and Denis Law. Northern Irish forward George Best was scouted for Man Utd by Bob Bishop and signed to the club’s playing staff by chief scout Joe Armstrong.

In 1963, Busby had successfully rebuilt United as he guided them to a 3-1 victory over Leicester City in the FA Cup final. They were league champions in 1965 and again in 1967, with only a defeat on the final day of the 1967-68 season stopping them from recording a rare championship hat-trick.

The biggest success of his career came on 29 May 1968 when the team won the European Cup. He retired as manager a year later but remained at the club as a director, handing over managerial duties to trainer and former player Wilf McGuinness. When McGuinness was sacked in December 1970, Busby briefly returned to his managerial duties, but there was never any question of his returning as manager permanently. He carried on as a club director for 11 more years, before being made president in 1982.

Busby was awarded the CBE in 1958 and was knighted following the European Cup victory in 1968, before being made a Knight Commander of St Gregory by the Pope in 1972.

He died of cancer, aged 84, in January 1994 at The Alexandra Hospital in Cheadle, Manchester. Busby was made an inaugural inductee of the English Football Hall of Fame in 2002 in recognition of his impact on the English game.

Sir Matt Busby a true legend of football.

Over the last few years many sports through their coaching departments have tried to set up Mentoring programmes as part of their coach development strategy. They will tell you that they have had some success in doing this. The truth however is that by and large they have been a waste of time, money and effort.

That said I for one am a great advocate of mentoring. I have had a mentoring for twenty five years, though I never knew it, and certainly never called him a mentor. He was and is someone who I can go to and talk through any issues around my coaching, and use as a sounding board. Someone who I trust and someone who is always honest. It’s at this point I should perhaps give you the dictionary definition of a mentor, which is “a trusted friend or advisor”. Herein is the problem with most mentoring programmes that I have witnessed. Imposing a mentor or even trying to match one with a coach does not work. A successful mentoring relationship only exists when the mentor and mentee have a genuine affinity.

So in finding a mentor I would suggest that this is going to be someone you already know. It could be a more senior coach at your club if you are a new coach. If you are a more senior coach it could be someone you have worked with in the past. It must be someone you trust and respect.

The other thing that is crucial for a mentoring relationship to work is that it must have a purpose. That could be as simple as the coach just wanting to generally improve, or improve in a specific area. If there is no purpose then the relationship is doomed to fail. Lack of commitment from either party will also see the relationship doomed.

Next week I will look at the roles and responsibilities of a mentor and the pitfalls to the mentoring process.

Graham Lowe is a New Zealand former rugby league football coach and current CEO of the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles. He previously coached in Australia and England. He coached in the NSWRL, the premier Australian competition that has since evolved into the National Rugby League. He is renowned for taking New Zealand from international easybeats to compete with Australia for international supremacy.

Lowe was coach of Otahuhu during the 1970s. He has also had experience coaching in the Brisbane club competition (now the Queensland Cup) in the 1970s with Norths Devils

From Norths Lowe moved to Britain where he was to coach the Wigan RLFC. Under Lowe’s coaching Wigan would continue to be a power in the RFL. It was while Lowe was coaching that Wigan were able to secure the signatures of Great Britain players Ellery Hanley and Andy Gregory. Lowe lead Wigan to the 1986–87 RFL Premiership and would go on to guide Wigan to their first ever World Club Challenge win when they defeated Manly-Warringah 8-2 in front of 36,895 fans at Central Park. He would also lead Wigan to success in both the 1987/88 and 1988/89 Challenge Cup finals.

He then moved back to Australia to coach the team he had beaten in the 1987 WCC, Manly-Warringah, coaching them between 1990 and 1992 and bringing the Sea Eagles back to the finals in 1990 and 1991.

In 1996, Lowe coached the North Queensland Cowboys on a one-year contract before stepping aside for Tim Sheens.

Lowe’s representative coaching began in 1983 when he was appointed coach of New Zealand. He would relinquish the role in 1985 but returned to coach the Kiwi’s in 1985 and 1986. Under Lowe’s coaching the Kiwi’s won two and lost 5 games, mostly losing to the powerful Wally Lewis led Australians (NZ lost all tree tests of the 1986 Trans-Tasman Tests).

During 1991 Lowe was appointed coach of the Queensland Maroons State of Origin team, becoming the first and so far only non-Australian to coach in the rugby league showpiece. After being appointed Maroons coach Lowe suffered from health problems when a blood clot in his leg threatened to end not only his coaching career but his life. He recovered in time to lead Queensland to a 2-1 victory over NSW in the 1991 State of Origin series. He was re-appointed for the 1992 series but Qld went down to the Phil Gould coached Blues two games to one.

Graham Lowe also coached the Western Samoan side for the 1995 Rugby League World Cup.

In the late 1990′s he was a part owner of the Auckland Warriors. In 2008 he coached the Bay of Plenty Stags in the National Provincial Competition.

On 25 November 2009, Lowe was appointed the Chief Executive Officer of Manly Sea Eagles.

One of the fathers of modern coaching Mussabini was born in South Africa and was a professional Athletics coach in an era of amateurs in the early twentieth century. He was famously portrait in the film Chariots of Fire as the coach of Olympic 100 metre gold medalist Harold Abrahams.

Mussabini himself was a billiards player in his younger days, and by all accounts one of some ability. During his time as a billiards player he authored various technical and coaching manuals. He was also a professional sprinter for five years. His first professional coaching experience however was in cycling. In 1894 he coached Ben Harris to the first professional cycling championship.

He continued in cycling before moving into athletics. He coached South African sprinter, Reggie Walker, to a gold medal at the 1908 Olympic Games in London. He coached further gold medal winners at the 1912 Olympic Games in Stockholm. He was appointed as full time coach by Polytechnic Harriers from 1912 until 1927.

He brought a systematic approach to coaching, rather than just being a masseur. For example, he used the techniques of Eadweard Muybridge to photograph runners’ actions and techniques at the finish.

The 1920 Olympic Games at Antwerp he coached Albert Hill to two gold medals in the 800m and 1500m, and Harry Edward, third in the 100m. He coached Harold Abrahams to a gold medal in the 100m and silver in the 4x100m at the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris.

He was a man ahead of his time and he only truly began to gain recognition well after his death and following the film Chariots of Fire. In 1998, the Mussabini Medal was created, to celebrate the contribution of coaches of UK performers who have achieved outstanding success on the world stage. Amongst the winners of this have been Sir Bobby Robson and Sir Clive Woodward.

The statistics don’t lie. Don Shula is the most succesful NFL coach of all time winning 347 games over thirty three years. Yet as impressive as those statistics are they fail to tell the full story of a man who has influenced so much in sports coaching in the USA.

Playing Career

In 1951 Shula signed with the Cleveland Browns, but rarely got on the field. On March 26, 1953, he was traded to the Baltimore Colts in what was, at that time, the largest NFL player trade ever made, involving 15 players. The Colts traded T Mike McCormack, DT Don Colo, LB Tom Catlin, DB John Petitbon, and G Herschell Forester to the Browns for Shula, DB Bert Rechichar, DB Carl Taseff, LB Ed Sharkey, E Gern Nagler, QB Harry Agganis, T Dick Batten, T Stu Sheets, G Art Spinney, and G Elmer Willhoite. Shula and Taseff were teammates at John Carroll, with the Browns and with the Colts.

Shula played with Baltimore for four seasons before finishing his playing career with the Washington Redskins. In his seven NFL seasons, Shula played in 73 games, intercepted 21 passes and also recovered four fumbles.

Early Coaching Career

Shula’s first coaching position was as a defensive backs coach at the University of Virginia in 1958 where he coached under head coach Dick Voris. He stayed for one season before moving on to the same position at the University of Kentucky in 1959 where he coached under head coach Blanton Collier. In 1960, Shula entered the NFL as defensive coordinator of the Detroit Lions.

Shula played under both Paul Brown and Weeb Ewbank, a Brown disciple, who is also in the Hall of Fame. After Ewbank left the Baltimore Colts to coach the New York Jets in 1963, Shula was hired by Colts’ owner Carroll Rosenbloom to coach Baltimore. Shula’s hiring was controversial because he was thought to be too young at only age 33.

Shula took the controls and led the Colts to an 8–6 record in 1963. He was successful, compiling a 71–23–4 record in seven seasons with Baltimore, but he was just 2–3 in the postseason, including two losses in championship games in which the Colts were heavy favorites, the 1964 NFL championship game won by the Browns 27–0 and Super Bowl III, the game in which Joe Namath of the New York Jets guaranteed and delivered a victory.

The 1965 team lost a special tie-breaker playoff game in overtime against the Green Bay Packers while using running back Tom Matte at quarterback because of injuries to Johnny Unitas and his backups. The 1967 team failed to make the playoffs despite a regular season record of 11–1–2, losing the Coastal Division on a tiebreaker due to an 0–1–1 record vs. the Los Angeles Rams. The Colts’ only loss was a 34–10 setback to the Rams at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on the final Sunday of the season.

Head Coaching Career

After the 1969 season, Joe Robbie, owner of the Miami Dolphins, signed Shula to a contract to become Miami’s second head coach. As a result of Shula’s signing the team was charged with tampering by the NFL, which forced the Dolphins to give their first round pick to the Colts.[2] The decision was controversial because Shula and Robbie’s negotiations and signing were conducted before and after the official NFL/AFL merger, respectively. Had the negotiations been concluded before the merger, while the NFL and AFL were rivals, the NFL’s anti-tampering rules could not have been applied.

Shula’s Miami teams were known for great offensive lines (led by Larry Little, Jim Langer and Bob Kuechenberg), strong running games (featuring Larry Csonka, Jim Kiick, and Mercury Morris), solid quarterbacking (by Bob Griese and Earl Morrall), excellent receivers (in Paul Warfield, Howard Twilley and TE Jim Mandich) and a defense that worked well as a cohesive unit.

Pittsburgh was called “The Steel Curtain” and the L.A. Rams front line was known as “The Fearsome Foursome”) the Dolphins were known as “The No-Name Defense” even though they had a number of great players, including DT Manny Fernandez and MLB Nick Buoniconti.[citation needed]

In 1972 the Dolphins were unbeaten (14–0) in the regular season. They swept the playoffs and finished 17–0.

Shula changed his coaching strategy as his personnel changed. His Super Bowl teams in 1971, 1972, 1973 and 1982 were keyed by a run-first offensive strategy and a dominating defense. In 1983, shortly after losing Super Bowl XVII to the Washington Redskins, the Dolphins drafted quarterback Dan Marino out of the University of Pittsburgh. Marino won the starting job halfway through the 1983 regular season, and by 1984 the Dolphins were back in the Super Bowl thanks largely to Marino’s record 5,084 yards through the air and 48 touchdown passes.

For all his success, the Dolphins’ January, 1974 Super Bowl win over the Minnesota Vikings proved to be Shula’s last championship. Despite consistent success in the regular season, Shula was unable to win in the post-season, failing in 12 trips to the playoffs—including two more Super Bowl appearances—before retiring after the 1995 season.

His retirement following that regular season ended one of the greatest coaching legacies in NFL history. He set numerous records in his 33 seasons as a head coach. He is first in most games coached (526), most consecutive seasons coached (33), and Super Bowl Appearances—six, appearing once with the Baltimore Colts and five times with the Miami Dolphins. Shula had a 2-4 record in his six Super Bowl appearances.

Shula was the head coach of the 1972 Miami Dolphins, who finished a perfect 17-0 and won the Super Bowl VII 14-7 over the Washington Redskins. Shula’s 1973 team repeated as NFL champions, winning the 1974 Super Bowl over the Minnesota Vikings. The following season the Dolphins seemed destined to win a third title in three years, but the Dolphins fell to the Oakland Raiders 28-26, in an AFC divisional playoff game in one of the greatest games ever played. With 35 seconds remaining in the game, Kenny Stabler was in the process of being sacked by Vern Den Herder. Just before he was tackled, he threw a completed desperation forward pass to his running back Clarence Davis in the games final moments and in doing so ended Miami’s mini dynasty. The Dolphins team was decimated the following season by the creation of the now defunct World Football League and the loss of three of its star players – Larry Csonka, Jim Kiick, and Paul Warfield to the rival league. The Dolphin franchise has never been able to duplicate the success of those magical four years between 1971-74.

Shula set numerous records in his 33 seasons as a head coach. He is the All-Time leader in Victories with 347. He is first in most games coached (526), most consecutive seasons coached (33), and Super Bowl losses (4, tied with Bud Grant, Dan Reeves and Marv Levy). His teams won seven NFL conference titles: 1964, 1968, 1971–73, 1982 and 1984. Shula’s teams were consistently among the least penalized in the NFL, and Shula served on the Rules Committee, to help change the game to a more pass oriented league. He had a winning record against every coach he ever faced except Levy, against whom he was 5–14 during the regular season and 0–3 in the playoffs. He is honored at the Don Shula Stadium at John Carroll University, and the Don Shula Expressway in Miami. An annual college football game between South Florida schools Florida Atlantic University and Florida International University is named the Shula Bowl in his honor. The game’s winner receives a traveling trophy named t

Aim:

Develop Grip, Carry, Passing & Catching, along decision making skills and spacial awareness.

Set Up & Rules:

Game is played 4 v 4 with each team allowed a goalkeeper.
Teams score by passing the ball into the goal.
No players other than the goalkeeper allowed in the ‘goal area’.
Players may run with the ball and pass in any direction.
Defenders look to force an error or intercept a pass.
After a score the non-scoring team start with a pass from the goalkeeper.
All errors (knock-on’s, etc) result in a turnover.

Coaching:

Hold the ball in two hands with thumbs spread greater than a right angle in the centre of the ball with arched palms and elbows out.
Hold the ball out in front of and central with their body when running with the ball.
Communication between players – finding space.

Waves (6 v 3+3)

Aim:

To develop grip, carry, pass (north/south) and catch skills with support play and decision making

Set Up & Rules:

Players are divided into 1 team of 6 ‘attackers’ and 2 ‘teams’ of 3 defenders.
The defenders are positioned at each end of the channel, with the attackers in the central area (defenders are not allowed in central area). 3 balls are placed on the ground on each side of the central area. The coach passes a ball to the attackers from the side line to start the game: the 6 attackers attempt to score over one end of the channel. Defenders may move to challenge once the attackers have left the central area. When a try is scored, or the attack breaks down/is stopped or the ball carrier is touched 2-handed (a ‘tackle’), the attackers turn, collect another ball from the central area and attack the opposite end of the channel. The ‘game’ continues in this manner until all six balls have been used; attackers and defenders then rotate and the game continues. The coach may stop any attack for incorrect grip carry, (one or two handed), pass or a catch that hits a receiver’s shirt; all result in a turnover of possession.

Coaching:

Communicate with team mates; support ball carrier with good shape lead into space to receive pass(north/south); hands up to receive; catch ball away from body; good grip, centre body carries, pass in front of receiver; run at pace; head-up to scan/read movement of defenders; vary running lines to penetrate gaps/overlaps in defensive alignment; re-align quickly to attack in opposite direction.

David has coached individuals and teams at the highest levels in international sport and business for over 20 years, after spending 14 years in leadership roles in the education sector. A former hockey international, who made over 100 appearances for England and Great Britain, he coached Great Britain’s Olympic gold medal-winning men’s hockey squad in 1988.

A graduate of Loughborough University and a also renowned conference speaker, he is author of three books including The Spirit of Teams, which provides practical guidelines for promoting high performance in teams.

He was the National Coaching Foundation’s Coach of the Year in 1985 and 1988 and was awarded an OBE in 1989.

Without doubt his greatest triumph was the 1988 Olympic Gold Medal. Whitaker took a squad of unfancied amateurs and produce a stunning series of results that carried them to victory. He put the success down to planning and adopting a somewhat revolutionary thing at the time in that he pursued in particular the mental preparation of the squad. Somewhat ahead of his time he forged together a group on individuals that became invincincible every time they took the field.

He was however an experienced coach before 1988 having started his coaching career before he retired as a player. The pattern that emerged even then was one of being able to get more out of teams than others thought possible.

David Whitaker was a true innovator as a coach and worthy of the title “Great Coach of Sport”.

Last week I directed the RFL’s Yorkshire Talent Centre for three days with over a hundred of the regions top fourteen to sixteen year olds. I was remind a couple of times by a couple of the players of one of the characteristics that over the years I have seen in young players that eventually make it all the way to the top.

That characterisic is the ability and confidence to ask questions, seek knowledge and understaning and then be able to apply that to there game. Time and again I have seen this and is a characteristic that is common across all of sport.

Now, you young players out there thinking I’ll go and ask my coach a question and I’m sure to play for England, think again. It’s not just the question, what specific knowledge will you gain. Then more importantly do you fully understand what you have learned and equally importantly can you apply that learning and improve your performance.

That is not easy at all, and again from my experience the better players will have someone else other than the coach who they can look to for guidance and help. This “Mentor” is a crucial person in a player or indeed coaches development.

Ruckingball through it’s forums looks address this issue, so take advantage and seek out that knowledge to be the best you can be. ASK! ASK ASK!
