Management career Gould joined Chelsea as assistant manager to Geoff Hurst in 1979, and briefly took charge of first team affairs when Hurst was sacked in 1981; Gould, too, left shortly afterwards. He began his managerial career with Bristol Rovers in the early 1980s but is most famous for his achievements with Wimbledon. He moved to the South Londoners in the summer of 1987 after their first season as a First Division club. His first season brought one of the most famous FA Cup victories in history, when his unfancied Wimbledon side beat Liverpool to clinch the FA Cup in the final at Wembley.

On leaving Wimbledon, Gould was recruited by QPR to work as assistant to manager Don Howe, having played under Howe at West Bromwich Albion. Fittingly enough, his short-lived spell at Loftus Road ended in January 1991 when he took the vacant manager's job at Albion. But he was unable to prevent them from suffering relegation to the old Third Division at the end of the 1990-91 season - the first time that Albion had slipped to such depths. In 1991-92, Albion just missed out on the playoffs in their first season as a Third Division club and Gould left soon afterwards to join Coventry, his former club.

His next stop was with the Welsh national team. He became national coach in June 1995 but quit four years later after their failure to qualify for the 1998 FIFA World Cup. Gould was not highly regarded by the Welsh fans, following questionable tactics and major fallings out with players such as Nathan Blake and Mark Hughes. A comical incident occurred early in the career of Robbie Savage when Savage jokingly threw a replica of Paolo Maldini's shirt into a disposal bin before a match against Italy. Gould initially dropped Savage from the squad for disrespecting Maldini, only to reinstate him the next day. Gould's final match was a 4-0 defeat to Italy in which he allegedly instructed Mark Hughes "not to tackle the Italians as they'll only dive".
