unusual facts about Jimmy Hogan


Otto Nerz

Nerz studied a large number of league and cup games in England, as well as in Austria and Italy, and sought advice on coaching and tactics from internationally-respected coaches such as Jimmy Hogan, Hugo Meisl and Vittorio Pozzo in a quest to improve the standards of the German national team.


Frederick Wall

Notably, Wall refused on behalf of the FA to offer wartime financial compensation to famed Anglo-Irish coach Jimmy Hogan, on the basis of the latter's perceived co-operation with the Central Powers during the First World War (Hogan had coached Hungarian side MTK Budapest whilst interned as an enemy alien during the conflict).
