Completely forgotten about Thommo - the complete opposite of a shrinking violet. One of the few to be player & manager on separate occasions - can only think of:

Thommo
Hancock (managerial career best forgotten)
The mighty Marshall of course

Any more for any more - think Gary 'Glitter' Hatto might have been caretaker briefly

Cannot remember Gary Hatto being a caretaker manager. Mick Wadsworth was a player/caretaker manager
and imo should have been given the job proper. He wasn't and swiftly departed to go on and manage and coach
many clubs at a higher level.

Hatto has been caretaker manager, i think it was when Sharpe resigned. Remember going up to Horden Colliery in the FA Cup on one of Wello's special coaches !!. Hatto was caretaker that day, and yes we lost in traditional Blues fashion. The highlight of the day being Mick Forshaw falling over the wall
