Is that text speak? Thought you'd be a bit past that grandad!

As for the longest manager, I don't know the answer, but would hazzard a guess that Billy Davies is the shortest! Boom Boom!!

Probably one from the early years when pressure from Chairmen, the press and fans wasn't quite so harsh!

I'd hazard a guess at Sudell, but don't quote me.

According to Payne & Rigby Sudell wasn't Manager, although he was Chairman from 1888 to 1893.

Without doubt the longest serving Manager that North End have had was 'The Committee'.

As far as I can see 'The Committee' was Manager from 1888 to 1919, came back from 1932 to 1936, had a rest and then did 1937 to 1949.

There must also be a case for 'The Committee' being our most successful manager and, should Simmo retire, Deggsy might want to bring him [her?], back again.

Jimmy Milne 1961 - 1968 just creeps in to your 50 year criteria.
