And one of these is none other than former Blackburn star David Dunn.
The retired midfielder made over 300 league appearances for Rovers across two spells at the club.
The two were teammates at the club for five years between 1998 and 2003, when Dunn left for Birmingham City.
Dunn retired from playing in 2016 after a short spell with Oldham Athletic.
He went into coaching and spent time at his boyhood club Blackburn before moving onto Blackpool.
Dunn went on to manage at Barrow, but only lasted 22 matches. He was most recently a first-team coach at Port Vale last year.
