This Dowie situation reminds me of what happened in the early 80's

edited November 2006 in General Charlton
Mike Bailey had just completed a successful season as manager and got us promoted from the old third division. Michael Glikstein doesn't come up with the money that he promised for transfers and Bailey packs his bags for Brighton. What do we do? We get Alan Mullery as manager who had just been ousted by Brighton. He lasts until November and when he walks out we appoint Ken Craggs as Manager who promptly signs Alan Simonsen and takes us on the relegation roller-coaster until he's sacked in March. Up steps the legend that is Lennie Lawrence who saves us from relegation on the last day of the season and the rest, they say, is history.

Let's hope we don't have another season like that.
