Till the end of the season!

Unless we lose the next 4 matches, in which case he'll be dumped for someone else.

And on the BBC they finish with a question :

Will Shakespeare make the grade

Will Shakespeare indeed. Where's the respect?

Makes sense seeing as they hadn't bothered to think about replacing CR till after sacking him. I do wonder about our owners.

But when the blast of relegation blows in our ears,
Then imitate the action of the tiges;
Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,
Disguise fair nature with hard-favour'd rage;

Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,
Hold hard the breath and bend up every spirit
To his full height. On, on, you noblest Foxes.

Henry V - by the other Shakespeare

I think it would be disrespectful to be talking to other managers while you still have one. And possibly against LMA agreements.

You may think that, but it doesn't mean it's not standard industry practise.
