Has he been back to WR as an opposing manager for a league fixture?

pretty sure he has but when and with who...?

I don't think he has. The only time we've played against one of his teams in a League game was away at Notts in 2010.

He managed Burnley at Whaddon Road in the Michael Duff friendly of course.

Since leaving us he's managed:

Stoke
Sunderland (Assistant)
Burnley
Notts County
Portsmouth
Nottingham Forest
Bristol City
Birmingham
Shrewsbury

I'm sure there are more (I've not looked), but other than Notts (who he took over after we played them at home) this is the first time he's managed a team in the same league as us.

Not a league fixture but Cotts was manager of Bristol City when they played at Whaddon Road about 7 years ago in the JPT (or whatever it was called then) I’m pretty sure.
Think it was on Sky too. Terry Gornell scored for us I think.

Yes, I watched that game in a pub in Newcastle.
