    I do Acido. What the fekkin ell do foreign coaches know about lg1? When I think of successful clubs in lg1 how many successful foreign managers/head coaches has there been? Only one i can think of is Gus poyet who was involved in English football as a player to be fair. Can any body name another one?

    Here's a list of successful LG 1 managers in recent seasons.

    17/18- 1st Wigan Paul cook 2nd Blackburn tony Mowbray p/o Rotherham paul Warne

    16/17 1st sheff utd chris wilder 2nd bolton phil Parkinson p/o millwall Neil Harris

    15/16 1st Wigan Gary Caldwell 2nd Burton Nigel clough p/o Barnsley Hecky

    14/15 1st Bristol city Steve Cottrell 2nd MKdons Carl Robinson p/o PNE Grayson

    13/14 1st Wolves Kenny jacket 2nd Brentford mark Warburton p/o Rotherham Steve Evans

    12/13 1st Doncaster Bryan Flynn 2nd Bournemouth Eddie Howe p/o Yeovil Gary Johnson

    11/12 1st Charlton Chris Powell 2nd Sheffield Wednesday Dave Jones p/o Huddersfield Simon Grayson

    10/11 1st Brighton Gus poyet (laiked in English football as a player) 2nd Southampton Nigel Adkins p/o Peterborough Darren Ferguson

    09/10 1st Norwich Paul Lambert 2nd leeds Grayson p/o millwall Kenny jacket

    08/09 1st Leicester Nigel Pearson 2nd Peterborough Darren Ferguson p/o Scunny Atkins

    Gotta love how stats can be manipulated to suit.
    How many foreign coaches were in the league in that time? Given the official stat is 10% it’s not many
    So stands to reason that in a league with next to no foreign managers in they can’t be successful.
    You could turn itround and say all English Managers/Coaches are crap cos when was the last winner of top league(Wilkinson I think)? But in turn who was the last English coach of a top team, with realistic chance of winning league.

    Not disagreeing with the what does a foreign coach know statement, just the use of the stats.
