    Well done. That's 7. Coleman aint one as he had retired as a player before becoming a Premier League manager.

    Pearce is one of the caretaker managers and so is Lombardo.

    Neil Ruddock at Swindon? I know he was there at the same time as Roy Evans but I don't think it was at the time that Swindon were in the PL. It's still worth a guess.
