Sack him, but only if we have a replacement to take over immediately. In the Summer it was clear they wanted Rafa out at any cost and that was the only focus, then they set about the managerial process. I think if we have some miraculous reinvention against Blackburn, and irrespective of the result, we actually for the 1st time put in a half decent performance, then the owners may give him another month, but otherwise surely he is 'dead man walking'. Sound out the Hiddinks / Pellegrinis before any sacking, or otherwise it will be Martin O Neill, and the press will praise the appointment as the next Messiah.
