However in the Official history of Grimsby Town by Dave Wherry, he is only listed as a coach from Nov - Dec 1954 (when Billy Walsh was manager). There is a gap between 1st March 1955 when Walsh departed and 15 March when Allenby Chiltern was appointed. The book does not say who was in charge for the 3 league matches during this period, but as Berkessy left in Dec 1954 because he could not get work permit it is probably not him. Can anyone confirm if Berkessy was ever manager of Grimsby 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.   ~ Alfred Lord Tennyson

How different it is today in football management. You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time
