Managerial career On 25 March 1938, Baggett managed Greece for a single 1938 FIFA World Cup qualification game against Hungary. Greece lost 11–1 in Budapest, a record defeat for the country that still stands to this day. Three days later, Baggett was in charge for an unofficial friendly against a mixed team from Kispest and Szeged in Hungary, resulting in a 2–1 win for Greece.

Following the German invasion of Greece in 1941, Baggett fled the country, settling in Turkey. In the same year, Baggett was appointed manager of Galatasaray. Begget stayed at Galatasaray until 1945. Under Begget's stewardship, Galatasaray won two Istanbul Football Cups.

In December 1945, Baggett was appointed manager of Greek club Panionios. In 1947, Baggett left Panionios to return to England, being replaced as manager by Georgios Roussopoulos.
