This really is a good opportunity to get the right manager.
RDM has a history of short term jobs and we need someone to work on a long term basis.
Eleven games in and with our current midfield it is a stretch to think we could reach the play offs, so to some extent the new man will get some breathing space as long as he can demonstrate improvement, better tactics and some good results.
I hope Dr Tony is going heed some knowledgeable input before making his choice.
If we go the young up and coming manager route, I think he will need the support of a very experienced backroom staff to handle the pressure that goes with an ailing 'big' club.
Otherwise Steve Bruce and Mick McCarthy are the sort of manager we can expect.
I really don't want a foreign manager for us in this league.
