If we get a new manager it’ll be someone who is desperate for a job and will be happy with no funds for transfers. It’ll also have to be someone who plays a long ball philosophy as bringing in a footballing approach will mean relegation as the current squad won’t be able to do that.

The other thing to worry about is that there is an increasing list of ex managers who a prospective manager will ring to sound out the job. I imagine the likes of Warnock, Harris and McCarthy will warn anyone else to stay clear, as Ferguson pretty much did to Solskjaer.
