My sources tell me (other boards and twatter :hehe:)
It's going to be Bilic, but he's tied until January or Rubén Sellés if he can free himself from Reading.
I suppose it would depend on Riza doing a reasonable job in the meantime, winning the easier games and pulling us away from the bottom before January.
Saw something similar on the other board - isn't it a bit flawed as a plan as it relies on our team being self motivated to perform between now and whatever date someone becomes available and an interim manager without too much power or authority - sounds like a perfect storm so will probably be the route the three stooges will takeQuote:

15 games till 1st January that's a hell of a lot to trust a caretaker Manager, let's see how the next two go, that may give us a better idea on Riza.Quote:

The board have, once again, been slow to act. I hope they, and us, do not live to regret it.
If you told me that we would be in the current position as the international fixtures end, I’d have laughed in your face because I would have thought it would be too ridiculous for words even for this ownership. To be fair to Riza, I’d say he’s only made one bad error in his three games in charge, but what an error that was and, if he is going to make equally bad mistakes every third game until January we’re not going to pull clear of the mess we’re in. If we really are going to wait until January for Bilic (is he really worth it?), then I think we’re taking an enormous risk.Quote:

They're probably giving Riza a couple more games to see if the improvement is genuine or a fluke before making a decision on someone - I don't believe this waiting until January for Bilic nonsense. Most of these rumours are started on twitter by idiots
Actually, with skybet, there is not much in it at allQuote:

id stop looking at the odds, they're a load of nonsense
Yes probably right again lolQuote:

Agree and I'm leaning towards stupid and I'm sure that they do not reflect that the reason the candidates maybe underwhelming is the way they have treated the last 12 managersQuote:

Well at least they know how we feel most of the time now. The people who brought us Slade, Harris, McCarthy, Hudson, Morison and Bulut are underwhelmed? Who applied? Alan from accounts?
They are almost certainly laying the foundations for Riza being given at least until Christmas. Cheapest, easiest option, and that’s probably what they are after.Quote:

(This is how I think the club are thinking- if indeed they are thinking anything- which is debatable)
From the moment bulut was sacked I've been adamant riza is getting it. My posts in that thread saying I can't believe they were offering 10/1 for him to last 10 games. I still am convinced.
Maybe Colin from accounts?Quote:
