Scruffy Jim has a problem.
If they sack ten Bob it will, having extended his contract cost them a hell of a lot and make him and Ineos look stupid.
If they sack him, any new manager will want money for the January transfer window and a firm promise of money next August. (January is never a good time to buy and as they can't sell, do they have the money ?)
Plus, which top manager would sign without those promises ? Which top manager would take on the poisoned chalice ?
They could go with the cheap option of Van Nistelroy whose unproven, further it would show they are skint and that no top manager wants the job.
Which ever option is taken the manager still has the problem of the team. It simply isn't good enough, it is just a mis-mash of average but costly signings. Which brings us back nicely to Scruffy Jim and Ineos. They oversaw the 3 summer signings and to put it mildly, they overpaid for average players. Scruffy and his team failed badly, very badly.
It's great isn't it.
