Add in Gary McAllister and Andy Thorn.Terry Butcher or Don Howe
We're like a managers graveyard. Does any other club have such a poor record for managers success after they've gone?
I'm struggling to think of anyone who's done much since leaving. Suppose Coleman could be one but I think his 'success' is more down to the fact there's not a lot of competition for the Wales job and he's got Bale.

Strachan has done ok...took saints to FA cup final and Celtic into Europe (ok that's not difficult) and of course is the Scotland manager. But you right having CCFC on your managerial CV is usually the kiss of death to your career. Next step reporting occasionally on sky from some wet, windy conference stadium

Reid Dowie Neal Adams Boothroyd never again managed teams anywhere near our size despite having managed other clubs close to our size. Strachan did OK at Celtic & Scotland but failed at M'Boro BigRon spent some time at Forest before joiming the race equality commission.
Strachan is overrated. The media and neutrals love him because he gives great sound bites.
The cold hard truth is couldn't get Scotland through the easiest ever qualification round for Euro16. Even Iceland with a 300k population qualified for it!
Celtic is no big deal. And he screwed up his time with Middlesbrough.
Great player though.
Ooh, I've got a list:
1. Strachan
2. Butcher
3. Neal
4. Reid
So managers automatically are a success at Celtic are they?
Again you forget Southampton.
Come on - a "par" result at Celtic is to win the league. So what he did was no big deal.
Fair play he got Southampton to an FA cup final. But so have hull, Wigan , Stoke, Pompey, Cardiff, millwall.... In recent years.
Hence my point that he's overrated. Not terrible. But just not all that.
