SACKED Ipswich Town boss George Burley broke his silence today and said: "My successor will be getting one of the best jobs in the country."

The one-time Blues and Scotland right-back, who cleared his desk last Friday morning, said: "Saturday was strange for me, so strange. For the first time on a Saturday since 1971 I didn't have anything to do. It was a very funny feeling. I was lost."
