Wouldn't he be forced to sack Manning from above and probably put on notice

New coach selected, overseen by Adams and maybe a consulting firm (as we have in the past). Knapper slips out the door once a new Sd has been identified.

Would probably little to no incomings in Jan but maybe steadies the ship with the right coach.
