William Gordon Thompson (10 August 1921 – 26 December 1986)[1] was a Scottish footballer who played in the Football League as a wing half for Portsmouth and Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic.[2][3] He went on to manage clubs in England and the Netherlands.
Life and career
Born in Glasgow,[1] Thompson played for Scottish junior club Carnoustie Panmure before joining Portsmouth.[2] He was a member of Portsmouth's championship-winning team of 1949 and 1950.[1] His only goals for the club came on the last day of the 1949–50 season, playing as an emergency centre-forward. Needing to beat Aston Villa to ensure they stayed ahead of Wolverhampton Wanderers on goal average, Thompson scored twice in a 5–1 win.[4] He went on to play in the League for Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic and in non-league football for Guildford City.[3]
Thompson took over as manager of Guildford City towards the end of the 1955–56 Southern League season, in which they won the title.[5] In May 1957, he was the pick of more than thirty applicants for the post of manager at Third Division South club Exeter City,[6] but lasted only until January 1958, when the club announced his departure by mutual agreement, though Thompson himself said he had been sacked.[7] A few days later, he was appointed manager of Southern League Worcester City, leading them to victory against Liverpool in the 1958–59 FA Cup and remaining in post until 1962.[8][9]
He went on to coach abroad, including in the Netherlands with Sparta Rotterdam from 1963 to 1966[10][11] and HFC Haarlem from 1970 to 1971.[12][13]
