Yes. Seriously though great original question.

But looking back, not many of our managers have gone on to do much else. Saunders, O'Neill, Megson (did OK for himself), Mike Walker went to a bigger club but failed and came back.

If you look at the list we don't have a history of being a great proving ground for managers.
