From wikipedia:

In September 2000 Cottee was given a free transfer by Leicester so that he could take up a player-coaching role at Norwich City[1], however this did not last long as Cottee struggled to meet the demands placed on him. After being released by Norwich on October 31 of that year he took over as player-manager of Barnet, a team closer to his home in London. After winning his first game with the club 7–0, Barnet hit a run of poor form which left them facing relegation from the Football League. Cottee resigned on March 16, 2001[2], however his replacement, John Still, was unable to rescue the team from relegation. A week after resigning from Barnet, Cottee signed for Millwall on transfer deadline day. During this remarkable season, which was his last as a player, Cottee played for a different team in each of the top four divisions of English football in the same season[3], a rare achievement last performed by goalkeeper Eric Nixon in the late 1980s.

Correct.

One more to go, maybe not in the same calibre as the two above.

Mayo for Sam! Just don't ask me for a year
