The season is over now. Ideas of planning for the summer with a new manager asap are nice in theory, but forget the reality of what our club is now and who is driving the ship. We'll be a circus whether Ismael is sacked now or in two months, and at this point we're only getting chancers and desperados in. We had a chance of attracting a top name this time around due to our league position - next season we'll rightly be favourites to go down unless the budget massively increases along with boardroom competency.
Nobody who cares about their reputation is going to want to touch us. There will still be tons of applicants as it's a championship club position, but it'll be another gamble at best, and the same people will still be running the show above the manager regardless.
Until Venky's leave this is just rearranging deck chairs on the titanic. They have to go before we have any hope of recovery.
