Give him the NLD

Why put in a new manager,even caretaker, to get a royal pumping and instantly be on the back foot. Let Frank take the loss then sack him and give the newbie an easier match to begin with.

I think Levy as a 30% share holder still is going to still have a bit of sway , he will know how perilous this situation is and hopefully he still has enough sway to convince the new lot frank needs to go, I can imagine the call now "you sacked me and you got the team relegated in your first season, if you don't act now that is what is happening"

My worry is there is some kind of boardroom dispute that sees us want to get relegated to dilute Levys shares and buy them up on the cheap and hope to bounce back to the PL the season after.....
 
What's the saying?

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it"

Think that could well be the case with Vinai and Lange here. Vinai, especially, has put all his chips on Frank and got the board to spend a lot of money on him, his staff, his players, etc.

Sacking Frank is tantamount to killing his project. And in turn, his cache and reputation within the leadership of the club.

Before it was basically just Levy doing Levy things and Uncle Joe didn't give AF. This time I think Vinai has clung on to Frank for dear life in an attempt to save his reputation with the board rather than doing what's best for the club and sacking him.

If Frank lasts until the Woolwich game there has to be some ego bullshit going on. It makes such little sense from a football perspective.

No.

If we had a board that weren't incompetent/wanting relegation they'd remove him now so the new guy has a whole 2 weeks to train and get his ideas across

Well actually he would've been sacked November if they knew how useless Vinai and Lange were
