    The possibility of Alex Neil's Norwich going up got me thinking about former Barnsley players who have gone on to manage in the Premier League. Turns out there are 6 of them. Can you name them all?? :confused:

    Yup, as you say, the obvious two. Of the other four, one you'll kick yourself with, two you wouldn't immediately think of, and one is very, very obscure and one I would never have known had I not looked it up.

    I'm guessing Danny Wilson is the kick yourself one

    Yes well done Tyke_67, they are the six! John Deehan is the one I thought was very obscure, great knowledge!

    John Deehan played a few games for us at the back end of his (playing) career late 80s early 90s under Mel Machin. Then became Assistant manager or Coach to Machin iirc.
