For what its worth i think that tilly has to stay for the forseeable future and till the very least the end of the year.
Truthfully i doubt we will get relegated allthough current form is a worry. If tilly gets to spend wisely in january and we did get relegated then i think he would walk anyway.
The things that bug me with tilly are:
Lack of tactics or more importantly willingness to change tactics or formations early enough or at all.
Players that he cant motivate who become world beaters when they leave us. Harold mcdonald and hooper scored about 10 goals between them for blues and have 30 this season already. Why cant tilly get the best out of these players?
Willingness to accept that we are beaten by better teams or were not good enough. Its all "we were unlucky or "the referee robbed us". Its the same everytime we lose.
The other thing that annoyes me so much is tilly signs so much rubbish and pays through the nose for them. For me walker is diabolical as a striker and is conference quality at best. He must have seen him play. He has a heart problem and he still gives 100+k for him. Now i really like revel as he works hard , but for me if your a striker you have to score goals. 150k on a striker who scores every 6+ games is a waste. Thats 250+k on strikers who dont score. Thats not factoring in the likes of paynter etc.
Tilly must be one of the most wasteful managers in the lower leagues. Remarkably the players he gets for free or for small fees seem to work well.
In short i am losing patients with tilly's ineptitude and excuses, but i except that time needs to be given to put it right.
January will make or break tilly i hope it makes him, but i worry it could all end badly for a southend legend and a gentleman.
In answer to who i would like to come in , i would have to Aidy boothroyd as he has experience of championship and premiership footy on an extreme budget.
