TheBaldOne66 768 Posted September 22, 2022 Here I am in Oman watching a game on Arab tv and they show a great former City player who’s now managing one of the clubs, Youssef Safri, he’s in charge of Qatar SC. Got me wondering which other former players are currently in management, I can think of only Steve Bruce and Russ Martin but I’m sure there are others around the world, can anyone think of anymore?

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,726 Posted September 22, 2022 Carl Robinson has coached a few sides in the MLS and the Australian A-League, David Nielsen has coached in the top flights of Denmark and Norway, and Jens Berthel Askou has coached a couple of sides in the Danish top flight. I did have to Wiki those to make sure- I knew they were all coaching somewhere but didn't know exactly where... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Angry 2,088 Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Can’t believe nobody has mentioned Steve Bruce, he’s managed every single club in the football league and we only played his current team 5 days ago 🤣 And Jamie Cureton is player-manager at Enfield. Sorry, just seen Brucie was mentioned in the OP 😜 Edited September 22, 2022 by Mr Angry Idiot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alex_ncfc 687 Posted September 24, 2022 3 hours ago, TheDarkKnight said: No. He was player-manager at Hamilton, though. My local team. I'm not young enough to see him play as I stopped attending Hamilton matches when I left school. I do remember a young winger in my school daya, though. A certain Paul Hartley. Sure Alex Neil turned out for the reserves a few times for us or am I mistaken? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midlands Yellow 4,703 Posted September 24, 2022 34 minutes ago, TheDarkKnight said: Maybe he was registered? He was known as a player who wasn't the best, but he was a trier (back handed compliment), so I could definitely see him being registered.. just in case there was a spate of injuries. After signing Wildschut for £7m and seeing him training he had to register himself to be fair. That transfer business hammers Ricky and Naismith really.
