Has an English Manager ever won the English Premiership ?

[enoughfakefiles]

There`s only three teams won the premership.I was gonna say howard wilkinson but when he was the manager of leeds it was the old first division.

Howard Wilkinson did more than a decade ago though :(

Has it been the Premiership for more than 10 years then? :o

[Agrajag]

So would I be correct in saying that the only managers to have won the English Premiership would be 2 Scotsmen and a Frenchman ?

Nope, I think St Martin is the only non scot to win it (off the top of my head)

[bigboab]

No there was another Celtic manager won it too, I think. I cant remember his name, dutch. Vim something.

I also think a dutchman won it for Ranges. Dick something.

p.s. Something seems to be a common dutch name. Yogi something. :lol: :lol:

Kin ell no more beer for me :(

[Agrajag]

So why can&#39;t we get a decent Scottish Manager for the national team ? Is it just because we are that shite that they would rather do anything else instead ?

It would certainly seem that way :(

[Agrajag]

Do you think Celtic and Rangers spending less on foreign players and bringing through Scottish youngsters will help this in the medium term ? I am thinking of lads like Maloney, Pearson, Ross, Kennedy and several others. There must be the makings of a decent core of a team there. So in 3 or 4 years time with a few like that and a Manager like Moyes for example, we may actually have a team again. Maybe not great, but able to get into tournaments.

[Lamsey]

Yes, Rangers are doing very well with that excellent Youth Academy. As an old mate once remarked to me, they have brought through lots of good youngs Scots like Ross, Burke, and... erm.... yes.
