If he doesn't work then we will simply move him back into obscurity and take someone else's manager again.
Rinse and repeat until we find one worthy of our great name.

Koeman would also cost a £3m-plus 'transfer fee' but Everton are refusing to give up
Everton are set to land Ronald Koeman with a £7million-a-year double-your-money offer — and the promise of massive transfer funds.
Goodison chairman Bill Kenwright is confident he will have Southampton manager Koeman in place by the end of the weekend.
Everton ’s principal shareholder Farhad Moshiri will play his trump card with the promise of a £100m transfer kitty PLUS an expected £65m from the sale of Romelu Lukaku AND plans to build a state-of-the-art new stadium.
It is a financial package Saints simply cannot match, and will prove a crucial factor in getting Koeman to indicate he is ready to take on the job of getting Everton back into the top four .
Farhad Moshiri's Everton blueprint includes leaving Goodison for a brand-new stadium
Moshiri will have to pay Southampton compensation - upwards of £3m - for the Dutchman, but has made it clear money is no object to his plan of taking the Blues back to the top.
Kenwright and Moshiri refused to give up the chase for the 53-year-old, even when he seemed to decline their initial approach .
They made Koeman their number one target as soon as they axed Roberto Martinezin the final week of the season.

Multi-millionaire businessman Moshiri had identified Sevilla coach Unai Emery as an alternative.
And even if Koeman is their man they could still do business with that Spanish club, with an offer to their sporting director Monchi to fill a similar, newly-created role.
Sevilla's Unai Emery is a fall-back option if Everton are unable to land Koeman
Koeman has no objection to the sporting director model and if Saints give their blessing he is expected to arrive on Merseyside with his agent Rob Jansen to thrash out details of a deal over the weekend.
His first job will be to persuade England internationals John Stones and Ross Barkleyto stay, with Stones a target for Chelsea and both Manchester United and Man City.
Koeman would also have the budget to offer bumper wages to in-demand Barkley and Stones
He will be promised funds to give both men a major pay-rise.
Lukaku is likely to leave, but his potential £65m fee will be reinvested in another striker and Koeman has proven at Southampton that he is adept at replacing stars who move on.
Fair pointGiven the nature of the Spanish league, that is hardly a stick to beat him with!
And where did he finish each year in the Spanish league?
This mercenary talk makes me laugh. It's a job for God's sake! He's a manager of the club that employs him, he's not a fan. If his success attracts the attention of other clubs it's up to his current employer to keep him happy. If that means more money than so be it. Players are offered bigger wages to make them want to stay so why should it be any different for a manager? If anything it's more important to keep the manager than the player. Koeman proved that at Southampton when the RS bought half of his team yet he maintained the standard.I'm not that arsed.
It's not a marquee signing by any stretch if he comes, but it's decent enough.
One thing though, what he has done to Southampton here! remember this if he is successful, as he is obviously a complete mercenary and now has a pretty long list of clubs under his belt already, we are his 9th club!
We're not loving them eitherMust admit he wasn't my first choice, but I am warming to him. There is only one Country in the Universe that hates 'Jermins' more than we do
and that is Netherlands. Herr Klopp judging by his latest forays into Europe is obviously after building the Fourth Reich in Liverpool
As the saying goes, the bigger the paycheque the bigger the problems. He's about to experience pressure to deliver he hasn't as a Manager to date.The most he got to spend was 15m euros on a player?? Thought Long cost more
