<P> There are 92 association football teams in the top four tiers of English football, all of which have a manager, or pair of joint managers, sometimes given the alternative title of head coach . The Premier League and the English Football League are the only fully professional football leagues in England . The Premier League consists of 20 clubs at the top of the English football league system . The remaining 72 clubs are split into the three divisions of the English Football League: the Championship, League One, and League Two . </P> <P> Some of these managers were appointed as caretaker managers prior to being given a permanent position; if so their caretaker appointment date is denoted in italics . Some managers listed have had more than one spell in charge at their current club or had spells at more than one club, however their time as manager is counted only from the date of their last appointment by their latest club . Only two managers have spent more than 10 years in their current jobs . This list includes every manager currently managing a club in the Premier League and the English Football League, in order of the date that they took up their appointment . </P> <P> Arsène Wenger, manager of Premier League side Arsenal since October 1996, is the longest - serving manager in any of the four professional divisions in English football . The second longest - serving manager at this level is Paul Tisdale, who has been manager of Exeter City (currently a League Two club) since August 2006, when they were a Conference club . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Name </Th> <Th> Nat . </Th> <Th> Date of birth </Th> <Th> Club </Th> <Th> Division </Th> <Th> Appointed </Th> <Th> Time as manager </Th> <Th> Source </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Wenger, Arsène Arsène Wenger </Th> <Td> </Td> <Td> 000000001949 -
