Bit of trivia

Of the current twenty Premiership managers, five were once employed by the same club at the same time. Name all five and the club to win Drewe Broughton's shooting boots that I sneakily stole from him after he joined.

 

[Hong Kong Blue]

Palace

Pardew, Dowie, Southgate, Coppell and I'll get back to you on the 5th.

Edit: 5th one would be Coleman

Crystal Palace

Coppell as manager with Coleman, Southgate, Pardew and Dowie as players

Was Coleman at Palace then?

Maybe it's just better on those of us from a younger generation.

There are only 20 premiership clubs to go through!

As the top clubs are managed by foreigners it was unlikely to be them, so you just had to think of the managers of all the bottom clubs and see what clubs they had in common.

Good question though.

If you wanted to make it trickier it should have been name the year - I'm guessing about 1993.

I would have said earlier.

It had me stumped for a while cos I had (nunconfirmed) Pearce, Dowie, Redknapp and Roeder all at West Ham at about the right time but I couldn't put another face in the picture.

Another chain of thought was Ferguson, Hiughes, Kidd, Mclaren, Robson but these are clearly way out!
