Ranked! The 20 managers who have taken charge of the most games
20. Bill Struth (1179 games)
A one-club man, Struth was appointed as Rangers' second ever chef in 1920. He'd previously served as the Glasgow outfit's assistant manager for six seasons, but stepping into the hot seat didn't prove a problem: Struth went on to win an incredible 18 league titles and 10 Scottish Cups during his 34 years at Ibrox. A portrait of the Leith-born gaffer hangs in Rangers' trophy room to this day.
19. Ignacio Trelles (1189 games)
A veteran of Mexican football who turned 101 in summer 2017, Trelles enjoyed no fewer than five separate spells in charge of the national team. Two of those stints encompassed the 1962 and 1966 World Cups, but his crowning achievement was at club level, where he led Cruz Azul to back-to-back league titles in 1979 and 1980.
Trelles also coached Zacatepec, C.D. Marte, Club amerika, Toluca, Atlante, UDG and Puebla during a career which spanned four decades.
