    He holds the record for the shortest managerial career, having signed a 2 year deal to manage Appollon Smyrnis in Greece in 2018, he was sacked after just one game, a 1-0 defeat to Larissa.

    He is a German citizen, having received citizenship in 2013, (his wife is German)

    Of the 7 clubs he has managed, excluding Appollon Smyrnis, he has achieved a 62% win rate in 4 of them, including Barnsley.

    Overall his win rate is 56%

    (Keep this to yourselves, we don't want the big boys sniffing around him!)

    "My collaboration with Apollo Smyrnis is ending today The president threatened me and attempted to influence the starting eleven as well as the substitutions to be made during match-day. It's impossible for me to work under these conditions"

    The name Alsatian comes from the German French border area of Alsace-Lorraine; however, the original name of the dog is German Shepherd dog. These two names have caused confusion over the years as some people think it's a different dog breed. But in fact, the Alsatian and German Shepherd Dog is the same breed of dog
