I hope so, we need to have plans in place already and a list of managers drawn up at the very least.
Hopefully Lerner and Faulkner will have learnt from last year and have plans in place already. Last year was strange as we seemed slow off the mark and got caught out, even though it was obvious for months that Houllier wouldn't be able to carry on. Similarly it has been obvious for months that McLeish wasn't working out for us, and plans should already have been made in advance of the decision to remove him.
I suspect that plans are fairly well advanced.
I would be very surprised if we are still managerless by close of business Friday.

But that is just me speculating, I am not an ITK person.
if its true that Faulkner was out in the states for 3 days last week with Randy you'd hope plans were afoot and I dare say Randy wouldn't fly in just to approach somebody so perhaps this could be sorted very quickly
