I read that as Neil Lennon when I glanced at it. Though that was an odd choice.

I'm tempted to say five beautiful women, but as I'm rather tempted by the idea of facilitating a discussion between five great football managers, I'll say:

Herbert Chapman
Matt Busby
Peter Doherty
Bill Shankley
Johann Cruyff

With Ian Holloway for light entertainment!

Graing. You wouldn't want me anywhere near. I've got the table manners of a Neanderthal.

Anyroad, my go:

Odysseus
Richard Feynman
Primo Levi
Walter Sobchak
Cicero

For entertainment, I'd have Coldplay: roasted on a spit by Ralf Hutter until they turned a light shade of ochre, at which point he'd say in a emotionless man-machine voice: "Now it's all yellow isn't it? That's what you get for plagiarism you bunch of foppy Kitsons."
