Cup winning managers?

Simon Smith · January 3, 2014

Sure someone will know the answer.
Has a manager ever won the F.A.Cup in successive years with 2 different teams
Could Bobby M be the first or am I jinxing it to even think it?

Not sure if they were successive years, but Herbert Chapman did it with Arsenal and, I think, Huddersfield.

Dunno.

But the last 3 managers to win the cup are all called Roberto as it goes.

Maybe we can make it 4 on the trot and set a new record if he wins it in successive years with different teams!

According to this, Billy Walker has won the cup with 2 different teams. Forest and Wednesday. Not in successive seasons though.

And Roydo was right about Chapman.
