Joey Barton, Fleetwood.

Paul Cook - where is he now?

Graham Alexander - I think he is in work, isn't he?

Grezza is at Salford City, so non-league.

Trying to think of others - Paul Cook is at Wigan

Remembered Mellon is at Tranmere and I think John McGreal is managing somewhere too?

The two obscure ones used to be Mark Yates and Derek Adams. Either of them still around?

Between you, you've all six names, but missing 3 of the Clubs ....

Barton ( Fleetwood ), Mellon ( Tranmere ), Cook ( Wigan ), which leaves Clubs for McGreal, Adams & Yates ....

Relieved of his duties at Orient ( National League ) in November 2017, as far as I'm aware, he's not gained a new post ...

Adams used to be Plymouth. Surely he's moved on by now?

[Edit] OK, I cheated and checked on Google. He hasn't moved on - in fact, he's "only" been there 3+ years. Which is a long time in management.

McGreal Was at Colchester last season but I’m not sure if he’s still there. Managers get sacked so often these days it’s impossible to keep up
