The last English manager to lift the FA Cup is Harry Redknapp, currently at the helm of Premier League strugglers Queen’s Park Rangers. In 2008, Redknapp led Portsmouth to the glittering silverware, beating Cardiff City 1-0 in the final. Before him, Joe Royle, then in charge of Everton, was the last English boss to lift the FA Cup in 1995.
