List of Scottish Football League managers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of Scottish Football League managers. It includes every manager currently managing a club in the Scottish Premier League and Scottish Football League, in order of the date of their appointment. The Scottish Premier League and Scottish Football League are the only two fully-professional football leagues in Scotland (although one SFL club, Queen's Park, maintain their traditional amateur status), and consist of 42 clubs in total. The SPL consists of 12 clubs at the top of the Scottish football league system. The remaining 30 clubs are split into three divisions: the First Division, Second Division, and Third Division.

Many of these managers were appointed as caretaker managers prior to being given a permanent position. If so, this is denoted in the "Caretaker appointment" column; if not, then the column is left blank.
