Árpád Medve (born January 10, 1917 , † November 16, 2001 ) was a Hungarian football player and coach.

Life

As a player, coming from FC Sturm Hauzenberg in the Passau area, he was the right runner at the Lower Bavarian TSV 1861 Straubing between 1948 and 1950 , but was not necessarily part of the regular formation. He was seventh and third with the club in the second-class Bayernliga , then called the Landesliga. Third place was enough to qualify for the 1950/51 first played southern season of the semi-professional II Division , which was subordinate to the Oberliga-Süd.

For the following season he moved together with his Straubing teammate Antoni, a striker, to Bayernliga promoted SpVgg Plattling . It was decided that they made the team's game there “even more imaginative and lively”, but this was apparently still not enough, because the SpVgg, contrary to expectations, was relegated as the penultimate.

With that, the Hungarian ended his playing career and stepped in the Bavarian Forest as a coach in the district league, which was the second amateur league, i.e. the fourth highest level of performance, with SC Zwiesel . In the following season he returned in his new role to the team of SpVgg Plattling, which had meanwhile been promoted back to the Bayern League. This time they managed to stay in the league with 9th place among 19 teams.

From 1954 he was for two years at TSV Straubing, still playing in the II division, where he succeeded Theo Otto. He first reached the sixth and then the 10th place. In 1956 he left Straubing, where he was succeeded by compatriot Emil Izsó, who was coming from TSG Ulm 46 .

Medve was poached by the league competitor SV Waldhof Mannheim , where it was hoped that he would bring the club, which had been relegated in 1954, back into the league. Under his predecessor Ludwig Günderoth , who came on an interim basis for Fritz Weidinger in March, the Waldhöfer were last sixth in the second division. Under Medve, the SVW was seventh in 1957, but in 1958, after four years, it was the first to secure a rise. 1959 followed the immediate relegation as the last in the league. But with the 8-0 defeat at 1. FC Nürnberg , the 7-3 at Karlsruher SC and the 9-1 against FC Bayern , the highest home defeat in the club's history to this day, the Waldhof fans were finally fed up with goals . 1960 followed with the by Saar 05 fetched Klaus sense , which should be developed for veteran, once again the first, just as promptly to rise again. This time a 7-2 at home against TSV Straubing caused enthusiasm. In the 1960/61 season he reached the 13th place with SV Waldhof and secured relegation one point ahead of 15th. The 23-year-old Werner Gutperle , who was to become an impressive entrepreneur in his next life, contributed to the success with 14 goals. Medve made room for Adolf Knoll , who was to lead the Waldhöfer back to the 2nd Division. Overall, Medev was the coach of the Mannheim team in 162 league games (77/31/66) and 12 cup games.

Medve moved to SV Wiesbaden in 1961, who was then relegated to the amateur camp as 16th after twelve years of uninterrupted membership in the II. In 1967 the club was supposed to be second rate for another year.

At the beginning of the Regionalliga-Süd season 1964/65 he joined 1. FC Pforzheim. In 1965 the club was 13th, in 1966 7th. In the middle of the 1966/67 season Medve was replaced by Heinz Ruppenstein , who, however, could not prevent the Pforzheimer from relegating with only three wins and seven draws from 34 games. Like their local rival VfR Pforzheim , who had already disappeared into third division a year earlier , 1. FC should never make it into second division again, even though they came close again in 1991.

At the beginning of the 1967/68 season he returned to Straubing for TSV, where he took over from Paul Buhl, who in the course of the previous season - in which Lower Bavaria was ninth of the then third-class Bayern League, subordinate to Regionalliga-Süd - the ex- FC Bayern coach Georg Bayerer had replaced.

Under Medve, the team from the penitentiary town came third in 1968: the Straubing team should never come that high again. In 1969 it was only enough for 16th place, two points ahead of a relegation rank. Under his successor Oswald Osadczuk, the Straubinger were 15th in 1970, but tied on points with SpVgg Helios from Munich, which ended up in 16th place, which was then relegated. There was then a play-off because the goal difference did not come into play in this case. Helios won 2-0.
