John Coughlin (born 11 April 1963 in New York) is a
former footballer and manager who currently manages Stenhousemuir. He was formerly a
player with Meadowbank
Thistle and Berwick Rangers until injury forced him out
of the game. He is a SJFA capped player from his time at Newtowngrange Star
He was assistant manager to Tom Hendrie at Berwick, helping them win
promotion in 1994, then they moved to Alloa
Athletic where they performed the same feat in 1998. That year
they moved to St Mirren and helped lead them to the
championship in 2000. He was appointed manager in December 2002 but
results faltered and he stood down the following November.
He took over at Berwick Rangers in May 2005. He won the Bells
Manager of the Month prize for his teams unbeaten league run in
August 2005 and also in September 2005. Another great run, in which
a new club record of 8 league wins in a row in December 2006 and
January 2007 saw John awarded the Manager of the Month award again,
and saw them move to the top of the league. In April 2007 he guided
Berwick to the Scottish Third Division championship, their first
title since 1979. It was Coughlin's third championship title but
the first in his own right.
However, following a poor start to the 2007-08
season Coughlin resigned as manager.[1]
John Coughlin is now manager of Stenhousemuir. He guided them to
promotion into the Second Division via the Third Division play-offs
beating Queen's Park in the 2-legged
semi-final and Cowdenbeath in the 2-legged final in
May 2009.
