Depends on how many caps those earlier Southend managers had because it's quite a bit less than Swindon's.

15 of the 38 men to manage Swindon on a permanent basis have international caps.

Vizard (Wales, 22 caps)
Harris (Scotland, 1 cap)
Page (England, 7 caps)
Mackay (Scotland, 22 caps)
Macari (Scotland, 24 caps)
Ardiles (Argentina, 52 caps)
Hoddle (England, 53 caps)
McMahon (England, 17 caps)
Quinn (Northern Ireland, 46 caps)
Todd (England, 27 caps)
Wise (England, 21 caps)
Sturrock (Scotland, 20 caps)
Malpas (Scotland, 55 caps)
Wilson (Northern Ireland, 24 caps)
Sheridan (Republic of Ireland, 34 caps)

If you count caretaker managers then 43 more caps emerge (unless I've missed someone?)

Mike Walsh (Republic of Ireland, 4 caps)
Ady Williams (Wales, 13 caps),
Paul Bodin (Wales, 23 caps)
Noel Hunt (Republic of Ireland, 3 caps)

Either way, it's an impressive haul for a lower league side

It's also kind of funny that our manager during the one Premier League season plus the man who achieved our first second tier promotion (Head), the League Cup success (Williams) and Anglo-Italian fun (Ford) had a combined total of zero caps between them!

Purely off the top of my head but how do Newcastle do?
Even just Keegan, Dalglish, Gullit, Shearer & Souness must bring up a fairly good number

I think that Chelsea will be ahead of us re managers & international caps. Yuck.
Lamps OBE will have pushed the numbers up.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

In my pathetically sad haste. I started compiling.

Chelsea are either first or second thus far purely on the modern era appointments.

A few are helped by people like Mark Hughes.

A few bigger teams had surprisingly low totals. I think West Ham were one.

I'm over half way and Swindon are Top 20-25 if I recall correctly.

They hit the mother load with Shilton. Fletcher was a biggy too.

Plenty of examples with clubs with 10+ capped managers but didnt win many and then other clubs only having 4 or 5 managers with caps but they earned loads which shoots them up.

Someone who has not failed repeatedly before.
Someone with a plan.
Someone with some charisma and leadership to show the fans as well as the players.
Someone with a clear identity on the pitch.
Someone who improves players and not make them worse.
Someone who plays players in position.
Someone who doesn't talk crap in post match interviews.

Probably too much to ask for though.

Give it to a young manager with passion and a plan. Not some has been.
