    Reading through this article, I got thinking about an issue that campaigners on either side have missed - there's a dearth of players from the Premier League era who have taken up management. For the sake of argument I'll use our squad from the 1994-5 season to illustrate this:
    Erik Thorstvedt - Tufft IL (one season)
    Dean Austin - Farnborough Town (one season)
    Justin Edinburgh - Billaricay Town, Fisher Athletic, Grays Athletic, Rushden & Diamonds, Newport County
    Gheorghe Popescu - N/A
    Colin Calderwood - Northampton Town, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle (caretaker), Hibernian
    Gary Mabbutt - N/A
    Nick Barmby - Hull City (one season)
    Ilie Dumitrescu - various clubs in Romania and Greece
    Darren Anderton - N/A
    Teddy Sheringham - N/A
    Ronny Rosenthal - N/A
    Jason Dozzell - Ipswich Wanders, Leiston Town
    Ian Walker - Bishops Storford (one season)
    Stuart Nethercott - Maldon Town, Ware
    David Howells - N/A
    Andy Turner - N/A
    Jurgen Klinsmann - Germany, Bayern Munich, USA
    Kevin Scott - N/A
    Darren Caskey - N/A
    Danny Hill - N/A
    David Kerslake - Cardiff City (caretaker)
    Judas - N/A
    Paul Mahorn - N/A
    John Hendry - N/A
    Jason Cundy - N/A
    Stephen Carr - N/A
    Gerry McMahon - N/A
    Chris Day - N/A

    You're right HBIC. They don't need the money - or the stress.

    Erik Thorstvedt has plenty of stress in his life trying to protect his daughter from some guy who follows her around everywhere...
