    That's my expectation. Someone without significant connections in the UK, potentially someone elevated from a much less desirable job to ensure that they don't have much leverage in their dealings with Tan.

    I'm going with someone with limited managerial experience, but major name recognition. Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink sounds about right.

    They need to sort out that Kazakh kid's work permit. I can't see anyone else doing that job.

    Because he's waiting for either Norwich or Shammers to lose their manager. He was promoted with both teams as a senior player and may fancy returning as manager.

    So Tan has given permission for chairman Mehmet Dalman to open talks with the man identified to replace Mackay. The target is a "household name currently working for a British club".

    This turmoil can only be good for us and our chances next week. Hopefully Mackay will put out a severely weakened team just to spite Tan :D

    The atmosphere could be very hostile when we go to Cardiff. Can only play into our hands.

    He will be gone by the time we play them - which I think is good for us.

    Certainly be hostile if Tan is at the match.

    Yeah, can only really be good news for us. Wonder who the 'household name' could be?

    Probably from the Championship. McClaren maybe? Although he's only just joined Derby so I doubt it.

    And the hostility will be added to from our end because of the presence of Harry Redknapp in the opposing dugout.
