CHALLENGE: Name the English football league and Premier League managers

Was Alex Neil registered as a player when he came here? Im sure he was player manager at Aberdeen before joining us.

 

Hamilton Academicals

See my message above - I remember that rumour too

 

Yea Hamilton that was it, I knew it was something to do with A but could only think of Aberdeen not Academicals

 

Well I know the answer now but had to scroll through all the current EPL and EFL managers to find him so I won’t ruin the challenge for anyone that may genuinely know without looking it up

 

Ditto
Incidentally, he is one of what appears to be a quite common route into our academy and youth teams -- youngsters from London, to whom we are an attractive alternative to the highly competitive big club academies of the metropolis.

 

yes agreed

(It’s Luke Williams at Swansea who was also on the books as a youth player.)

Incidentally, when researching, I found a fair few ex Ipswich players as well.
