Former Blades as Managers

[Silent Blade]

The great Herbert Chapman?

3 titles with Huddersfield and 3 with Arsenal. Also manager of Leeds City when they got thrown out of the League for financial irregularalities in 1919.

2 with Huddersfield, he left for Arsenal after Huddersfield won the 2nd league title

 

[Silent Blade]

Is that Alf Ringstead?

No, George Raynor who played a County Cup game for us in the early 1930s and later managed Sweden that reached the 1958 World Cup final. Also managed Juventus, Lazio, Coventry and Doncaster (all four were short spells)

 

[Swinton Blade]

Michael Brown had an unsuccessful spell at Port Vale before going into punditry.

Tbf at least he had a go at management, unlike Mills, Redknapp and Carragher who went straight to Punditry.

 

[Swinton Blade]

Paul Peschisolido had a spell at Burton a few years back and Kachura had a few jobs

Dean Hammond is manager of Filey Cubs under 8s 2XI Reserves

They are bottom of the league

pommpey

Publicising that is not fair on Filey Cubs under 8's 2ndXI reserves.
Rumour has it the captain and vice captain are running the team, Hammond is just a figure head there to draw in finances with his charisma and footballing knowledge.

 

[benn5712]

Jim Gannon.

Yeah true. Too many ex-Pros go straight into the comfort of pundrity now. Can’t fault them for it though.

 

[Zipwire]

Chris Wilder.

Halifax, Northampton and Oxford as well as a stint as assistant Bury.

wonder what happened to him

 

[coaxingstar71]

Chesterfield has been a bit of a hotbed for former Blades.

As well as Joe Shaw and John Pemberton, both Frank Barlow and Jack Lester have managed them.

Heard he’s got an option of free cocoa and biscuits at camp for a year if he gets sacked. New Akela’s not happy with arrangement
