    Jim Iley was a useless cueball head

    They are already a month late in sacking him.

    We had better times than this under Iley IMO. I could not see on or off the pitch how things could be worse. Maybe they sell off the ground & we play at Rotherham? Would not rule anything out with these very lovely people.

    Ironically the no's currently equal his current win percentage!

    Once again the Bard:

    Is this a dagger which I see before me,
    The handle toward my hand? Come, let me clutch thee:
    I have thee not, and yet I see thee still.

    Jim Iley took a club and players who'd been languishing between bottom four and mid table of the fourth division with no money to two promotion challenges and the core of the side Clarke took up.

    He's done that before. I personally don't have a problem with it, saluting the fans isn't something he does.

    Think Conway s little black book of Austrian coaches may not have any more names in though so doubt we're getting rid!

    For the record, I was also previously in the "give him more time, especially with so many out injured" camp, but I can't see any other option right now than to let him go.

    Charlton have fired Adkins today. Won't have been a cheap move, but they have acted.
    Their fans too, think it was weeks overdue.

    To be fair, not many people can unite the bbs quite like he does.

    Iley also had most of his best players sold from under him whilst Ernest Dennis was in charge, to keep balancing the books. Things changed somewhat further into his tenure & then Geoff Buckle took over as Chairman in '79 & we saw Clarke appointed. New directors joined, with the likes of John Dennis coming on board & a new outlook ensued.

    Iley was heavily unpopular but his was kind of the John the Baptist to Allan Clarke, paving the way. Clarke was given the budget to sign the likes of Ronnie Glavin & the rest is history.

    Get rid and lets start on a different obscure European league to get managers from, I vote for Denmark, it worked for Brentford. Their teams are always functionally effective.

    Thing is, I'd far rather have him here than Schopp.
