My take when loads were calling for farke to be sacked was,

Who will we get in, will the new manager be better? will the new man be able to get better results with our current squad?

So it now seems the new manager will be either, Knutsen who on paper looks a very exciting, plays a high pressing 4-3-3 his teams score loads but he's never ever been tried at this level. Smith who has more Prem experience, did really well with Brentford then ultimately failed at Villa without Grealish. Lampard, an English legendry midfielder who on the whole seems like a hard working manager. He's got a bit of experience in the Prem but not with a team with no money. Look at what Tuchel has done at Chelsea, he's turned Chelsea into a winning machine with virtually the same players that Lampard had.

One thing's for sure its a tough decision one I don't think I'd like to make, lets hope the grass is greener without Farke and were not in the bottom 6 of the Championship in a years time.

I'll back whoever the board appoint.
