Dugald Livingstone (25 February 1898 – 15 January 1981)[3] was a Scottish football player and manager.
He played fullback for Parkhead, Ashfield, Celtic, Dumbarton (loan), Everton,[4] Plymouth Argyle, Aberdeen and Tranmere Rovers during his playing career before going into management.
[6][7] During his managerial career, Livingstone took charge of the Republic of Ireland from 1951 to 1953, before managing Belgium,[8] guiding them to the 1954 FIFA World Cup and notably was in charge for the thrilling 4–4 draw with England in the group stages.
Some supporters and staff were at first concerned that his tactics were in total contrast to those of his predecessor George Martin, but these doubts were laid to rest when he guided the team to FA Cup victory in 1955.
[9] It was largely believed that Livingstone was unhappy with the amount of influence the board had on first team issues (although he never stated this).
