Question of the day

[spkennyuk]

Why? Is it not question of day, surely if you know you should answer and move on.

True but then i would have to set the next question and im not on the forum much at the moment.

A previous Celtic manager did 42 or 43 years and is the second longest serving manager. If that helps.

I think zag has the same answer as me from his hint.

I didn't get the chef comment...I'm only looking for the team not the manager himself as no-one would get that.

 

[zagatoes30]

Did Navcorr not already get the team? If not then my clue will make no sense

 

[Navcorr]

Thank Roux very much. Seemingly he took a short break so his tenure wasn't uninterrupted.

 

[midlifecrisis]

I'm not sure where we are with this and I set the last question...

Which football club had a single manager for the longest period in England?

 

[zagatoes30]

Pretty sure Fergurson was the longest serving post war manager so it must be someone who started prewar at least. In the early days I think there were a few who had 30 years plus behind them. Is it a midlands club I seem to remember Wolves and Villa had long term managers in the early years of the 20th C

Birmingham City?
They also never won a game during the reign of a Pope

 

[BennyD]

Dario Gradi at Crewe was long serving as well.

 

[Navcorr]

So we've gone from "a" manager to an "English" manager?
Hmmm … do I detect a side-step
Whatever, still no idea.

I googled it cos I was nearly right up thread and couldn't think, I'd have thought with all the clues someone would have bagged the answer by now

While we have all REALLY enjoyed the 6 June question, it is possible we have got everything we can out of this, and we should now consider moving on to another 'question of the day'....

Yes this question is proving to be a 'thorn in everyone's side. They also have the highest Ground in the top four leagues...

 

[zagatoes30]

Enough clues for even my small brain, stunned it is the highest ground in the football league though.

West Brom, Hawthorns

Hoorah, your go Andy to set the Question of the fortnight...

[zagatoes30]

OK, an easy one especially for those who made the trip to La Sarthe last weekend.

Alonso won this years race and is only the 5th F1 World Champion to do so, who are are the other 4?

 

[Navcorr]

Well, Graham Hill would be one, obviously.

 

[zagatoes30]

Well, Graham Hill would be one, obviously.

1 down, 3 to go - despite the name one is not related to Graham and another has a link to the answer to the previous question.

 

[daverichardson]

Graham Greene?

 

[zagatoes30]

Graham Greene?

Typical SM thought process, it made me smile but unfortunately not
