After retiring as a player Fenwick moved into football management. In 1995, he replaced Jim Smith as manager for Portsmouth.[8] After a poor first full season in charge, during which the club only avoided relegation on goal difference, an improved second season saw the club miss out on a play-off spot by one place, while they also eliminated then-Premier League Leeds United from the FA Cup.[9] Fenwick left Portsmouth in January 1998 with the club bottom of the Division One table.[10] Fenwick then followed Terry Venables to Crystal Palace, where he served as assistant manager.[11]
In a remarkable turn of events, Fenwick was canvassed by an Asian businessman and coerced to become the new public face of beleaguered non-league outfit Southall between 2000 and 2001.[12] It led to fellow Queens Park Rangers teammate Mike Fillery being installed to take charge of first team affairs, before both were ousted amid the debacle surrounding the club's ownership.[clarification needed][citation needed]
After managing
Since his managerial days in England, Fenwick has spent a considerable amount of time in Trinidad and Tobago, where he has enjoyed a great degree of managerial success – winning the country's professional football league on four occasions (2002, 2003,
On 19 December 2019, Fenwick was appointed as the head coach of the Trinidad and Tobago national team on a two-year contract commencing on 1 January 2020.[21] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he did not take charge of his first match until 31 January 2021, in a 7–0 loss to the United States, equalling the biggest defeat in Trinidad and Tobago's history.[22][23] Despite being favoured to qualify out of their first round group, Trinidad and Tobago had eight points from four matches, finishing one point behind Saint Kitts and Nevis.[24][25] On 11 June, Fenwick had his contract "terminated" by the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association.[26]
Personal life
Fenwick received a four-month prison sentence in September 1991 after being convicted of drink-driving. He served two months of his sentence.[6]
