Warren Feeney was managing in Bulgaria a few years back.
Yes that's one of mine but I've also thought of another one so at least two more to get.

Has he gone yet?
From the BBC match report: "Defeat means Parker has now won only one of eight games in charge of Bruges."

Ooh good question. I’ve traveled deep into the recesses of my mind and can only find one other than Feeney and that’s Ivan Golac who played for us and managed Partisan Belgrade. I will keep thinking of that other one all day

Kevin Bond managed in Hong Kong.
Harry Redknapp managed Jordan.
Guessing Scotland doesn’t count as abroad because a few have managed there…
Edited as realised none of the above are European mainland teams!

What did Kevin Bond manage to do in Hong Kong? Practice collecting brown paper bags?

Did he manage a team with alternative views? Half of them were socialist worker ecologists and the other half were in the BNP with shares in oil and tobacco.

Claus Jorgensen manages an under 15's side in Denmark??
Yes that's the second one. Golac played nine games for us on loan. One more to get.
Neil Masters doesn't appear to be the current manager but his Wiki website has him in 2003 at Rygge FK so that makes 4.
The other one of mine was probably alongside Ted MacDougall one of our most illustrious players ever who went on to achieve legend status elsewhere. He left us in 1937 as a 17 year old for £3000 to Man Utd having scored 12 goals in 20 odd games. After the war he went on to play a record number of games for Utd and scored a then record number of goals scoring 5 in a FACup match. Won League Championship and FA cup medals played for England and scored four goals against Northern Ireland.
I am referring to Jack Rowley.
He left Man U to be player manager at Plymouth and along with other clubs he managed Ajax in 1963/64.

I know Parker is known for his sartorial style, but arguing over a bra seems a bit above the belt...
Seems like he's really working on that rapport with the players again.
They clearly adore him, his tactics and style of play.

It’s interesting how clubs ignore all the glaring evidence of his style of football and relationships with stakeholders and keep appointing him.

It’s only his third job.
Not sure you can lobby that at either Fulham or AFCB, something has to actually happen a couple of times before you can see a pattern emerging.

When all is said and done, Parker was employed by Demin to do one thing last season: get promoted. He / we did it and Demin was able to sell the club for 100m off the back of that.
There will be desperate Championship club owners coming Parker's way in future who won't care about dull football, fall outs and media comments, if he gets them that promotion.
