I had completely forgotten about Habib Beye. I even had to google him to remind me when he was with us. What a mad signing that was.

The MON years.
another player who was on huge wages and hardly kicked a ball for us
Thought he was a weird signing at the time, he was 32/33 years old when he came, so even if he had been a success, he had a very limited shelf life.

MON made some bloody peculiar transfers.

If memory serves we gave him a 4 year contract.

Whilst reading about Kevin Phillips taking over as manager of seventh-tier South Shields...

(see here: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/jan/28/kevin-phillips-south-shields-manager-interview-sunderland)

...I was surprised to learn that he took over from Graham Fenton!

This made me wonder which ex-players are currently trying their hand at management..? And are any of them doing well? (Any future Brian Littles out there?)

(And are there any other examples of one ex-Aston Villa player taking over the reigns from another anywhere? I can think of John Gregory replacing Brian Little, who himself replaced Ron Atkinson who was at Villa as a player but never appeared for the first team.)

Kevin Phillips has recently taken charge of AFC Fylde

Watford statement on Tom Cleverly:

"Watford FC confirms Tom will be in charge for the match at Coventry City and that the speculation over his position is just that - pure speculation"

He took over from Nathan Delfouneso who had been in temporary charge for the previous 5 games.

They've also appointed Glenn Whelan as caretaker manager.
