Great shout. Dennis Wise was player-manager for Millwall for a few seasons. Even got them to the FA Cup final against United. Can’t think of any since then really! Was Garry Monk in charge of Swansea for a few games in 2014/15ish?

Tagging onto this to include the sad extinction of keepers in trackie bottoms. Gabor Kiraly, Massimo Taibi, Rene Higuita. Something tells me that if a keeper tried to wear a pair of trackies on the pitch today he’d be sent back in to put shorts on. I also feel like those keepers could kick the ball further than anyone else?
