This can only be good news, I like the quotes attributed to BP seems like a man who wants answers.
Just hope that his friendship with Holloway will pay off. As despite Arriba's thoughts I for one think he'd only be a good appointment for us.

well if we are to get holloway he will have to bring his wage demands right down, according to people at the club i have spoken to, holloway wages were well out of our leauge, quote]
Didn't the club come out and say last year that we couldn't afford Cureton or Thorpe, let alone both of them, and then what happened?

I think Power was refering to his knowledge of what Holloway was paid at QPR. Of course if the guy offered his services at a knock down rate it becomes more likely.

Mark Stimson just left Grays, why not give him a crack at league management. Hes more experienced then Iffy, hes done a good job for Grays, and im guessing he wont be asking for a highish salary

I reckon they've taken my apprentice style reality tv show idea into account. We'll have Iffy and Holloway taking part in crazy tasks by the end of the week.

I don't remember Iffy playing much this season. Good idea this I think, still hoping we'll get Holloway, I read he was on £180k at qpr which would be out of our league but not out of Bill Power's.

Look; Iffy took us to a position of relative success and fucked up royally... it's quite right he has to justify himself to the new money men... it's Powers money he'll be spending ffs.
Stop bumming Iffy and accept he played a significant part in our relegation and he has to front up to that.

Just to show fans can often get a bit carried away with the doom and gloom, and sometimes peoples opinion of a Manager based on a brief period can be a little "off": Note the Manager was involved in a Cup Final recently and the other has often been discussed on here as being the mastermind behind a low budget club doing so well http://www.royals.org/matdoc/131001.htmlCheer up people, we could be them
