Ian Bogie

Newcastle United

Having developed his skills at the Wallsend Boys Club, Bogie signed for his hometown club Newcastle United as an apprentice in July 1984, turning pro in December 1985 just after his 18th birthday. A skillful, ball playing midfielder in the Paul Gascoigne mould he was favourite to take over from the Tottenham bound England star in the Newcastle team. However, after only 21 games for the Toon Army in which he scored one goal, manager Jim Smith's traded him to Preston North End in exchange for striker Gary Brazil; Smith valued him at £100,000 mark. Bogie was originally against the move, preferring to stay and fight for his place, but after much persuasion by both Smith and Preston boss John McGrath, he finally moved to Deepdale.

Preston North End

Having finally joined Preston, Bogie debuted in a home league match versus Bristol Rovers, a game that ended 1–1. Bogie did, however, endear himself to the Preston fans immediately with his silky ball-playing skills. His time at Deepdale was frustrating for Bogie, Preston, and the fans, with the club beginning to struggle. Bogie himself frustrated the fans with some indifferent performances despite his obvious ability. After two and a half years at Preston in which he played 91 games, scoring 12 goals, Bogie exercised his right to speak to other clubs at the end of his contract and in August 1991 signed for Millwall for a tribunal set fee of £145,000.

Gateshead

Bogie was confirmed as the new Gateshead manager on 4 May 2007. He initially joined Gateshead as assistant manager at the start of the 2006–07 season. He took charge in a caretaker role after Tony Lee was sacked at the beginning of March. Gateshead ended the season with a 12 match unbeaten run, with Bogie as assistant to Derek Bell for the first three and caretaker manager for the final nine of these games. This put Bogie and his players in a final position of ninth in the Northern Premier League Premier Division. In his first full season, Bogie guided the Gateshead team to third in the NPL during the 2007–08 season, which meant the team qualified for the play-offs. On 3 May 2008, Gateshead beat Buxton 2–0 and therefore were promoted to the Conference North. In the 2008–09 season he guided them to a second-successive promotion with a second-place finish in the Conference North, beating favourites AFC Telford United 1–0 in the play-off final, picking up the January manager of the month award along the way with his side playing some outstanding football during the campaign. He picked out a gem of a player in Lee Novak for a fee of £3,500 from Newcastle Blue Star. Novak won the Golden Boot Award and was bought by League One side Huddersfield Town for a fee that has brought Gateshead a North East non-League record fee of £150,000. His team retained their Conference National status in 2009–10, finishing above the relegation zone on goal difference (though this…
