Mysterious Missing Managers 14:02 - Sep 2 with 5022 viewsArnoldMoorhen

All this talk of managers got me thinking about managers of the past who seemed to be doing, or have done, a good job, then they seemingly disappeared and weren't considered again.

I mean, I could Google, but it might take an age to find out, and the TWTD hive mind might know, why on earth weren't the following offered jobs? Or did they choose to retire?

I'll start with:

David O'Leary

Brian Little

Alan Curbishley

I remember when Billy Davies and Iain Dowie were being properly talked up in the mid 2000s... That went well.

Billy 'The Poison Dwarf' Davies
Good manager but always falling out with the chairman over a lack of funds

Perhaps he fell out of love with it?

I believe he used to do all the video stuff for his team, cutting all the footage and preparing the team

He had some very detailed set piece routines from memory

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Alf Ramsey?

A miralce worker with Ipswich and England. Short stint at Brum then ignored by everyone until he was dead, then people (and Ipswich) remembered him again.

He thinks there is a conspiracy keeping him out of the game
