Football League STIMSON LEAVES THE GILLS Posted on: 10.05.2010 Mark Stimson has left Gillingam Football Club, following their relegation from Coca-Cola League 1. A 3-0 defeat at Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday confirmed their relegation to the bottom tier just 12 months after they won promotion via the Play-Offs. Stimson took charge at the Priestfield Stadium in November 2007 and guided them up to fifth in the League 2 table, last season. They beat Rochdale in the Play-Off semi-finals before facing Shrewsbury Town at Wembley. Simeon Jackson's 90th minute strike secured their promotion. The Gills have managed just 12 wins this season and were the only side in the whole of the Football League not to win away from home and three wins in their last 11 games proved disastrous. www.football-league.co.uk/league1/news/20100510/stimson-leaves-the-gills_2248206_2048365
