Managerial Career
Spiegel began his career as a manager in Hapoel Petah Tikva in the mid-1980s . After several years he moved to Maccabi Tel Aviv, which won the State Cup. After problems with some of the players and a 10–0 defeat to Maccabi Haifa, Spiegel was fired. In 1989 he moved to Bnei Yehuda, which won the Israeli Championship in 1990. In 1993, he moved to Maccabi Haifa. The team won the Israeli Championship that year without losing a single game the whole season. Under his lead, Haifa won the State Cup twice, in 1995 and in 1998. In 1999, Spiegel returned to Bnei Yehuda and after one unsuccessful season with the club he moved to Ironi Rishon LeZion for two years.
In July 2007, after an absence of five years from the Israeli football scene, Spiegel was hired by Beitar Jerusalem as its general manager. That year, the team won the Double. In August 2008, he retired.

Famous quotes containing the word career:
“The problem, thus, is not whether or not women are to combine marriage and motherhood with work or career but how they are to do so—concomitantly in a two-role continuous pattern or sequentially in a pattern involving job or career discontinuities.”
—Jessie Bernard (20th century)
