81. Didn't know much from pre-2000 but the clues were a massive help. I had never heard of the Bradford manager but I did know who the Australian comedian was!

Tangled up in blue.

No disrespect meant to you ODF, but it annoys me when the BBC do this and put the brakes on at 1992-93. They must have so much in their archives but if it's not Premier League, they don't seem interested.

Perversely, therefore, I have created my own quiz which is to name all the managers from the 1991-92 in England's Division One.

They are all UK managers apart from one who was born in Ireland.

Some clues:
Sheff Wednesday and Man City both had player managers
Wimbledon had three managers, all well-known names, one a European Cup winner
Norwich and Coventry had two managers
Even Notts County get a mention!

Here are the teams in the order they finished:

Leeds
Man Utd
Sheff Weds
----------------
Arsenal
Man City
Liverpool
Villa
FOREST
Sheff Utd
Crystal P
QPR
Everton
Wimbledon
Chelsea
Spurs
Southampton
Oldham
Norwich
Coventry
-------------
Luton
Nottingham County
West Ham

They've also missed out Owen Coyle for starters.

Undoubted knowledge? Or just the application of common sense and using my brain?

I thought this, but then after googling him I realised he had played for the Republic of Ireland. Chris Hughton also misses out, presumably for the same reason.

Good point!
