Lou Macari, Ossie Ardiles, Glenn Hoddle, Steve McMahon, Roy Evans, Colin Todd, Dennis Wise, Paul Sturrock, Danny Wilson, Paolo Di Canio. I'd say there is a few in there who are well-known to the average punter.
Half of those may have been well known as players, but we were their first foray into management. A big name may put bums on seats initially, but they're not a guarantee of success.

I still fail to see how your point that we get in managers that nobody knows stacks up...

People on the Adver articles are genuinely suggesting Hoddle is a viable option.

I quite like the sound of Hope Powell that Reg alluded to earlier, obviously knows the game well enough, and think of the positive press coverage that would come from that, it could work well.

I agree - a lot of those turned out to be very poor. I was simply disagreeing with the idea that we have a history of appointing unknowns. We don't - maybe we should...

other than the cost, and lack of control of the team, he could be quite good with the youngsters. no I'm not suggesting he's viable

Has he still got that yoof set up in Spain to supply clubs with young cheap kids to exploit?

Worth noting I believe Luke Williams and Martin Ling worked together at Leyton Orient for a spell.
