If we were a club in a normalish state - ie. with owners who have been in place for some time who have an idea of where they are/want to be taking the club, then I would imagine a decision re: KR would be taken pretty imminently, and probably the one that most supporters in the poll appear to be calling for.
However, we clearly are not, and therefore other factors will come into play which may have as big an influence on the decision as what happens on the field on a Saturday afternoon. A lot may be explained by this upcoming change to the backroom setup:
If KR has been the driving force behind the changes - either wanting more of 'his' people, and/or getting dissenting voices within the backroom staff pushed out or choosing to leave because of KR - then this indicates the strength of his hand in the relationship with Tiger. In these circumstances, then KR is going nowhere, particularly while Tiger has at least one eye on the political/financial dealings of the business.
However, if this is a structure being put into place from above - be that Tiger himself, or a plan being implemented for/by other investors - then that is a different story. If it is KR people that are going, or others being brought in by the board to change the setup, then that severely weakens KRs position and could well mean that he is very vulnerable if the owners are looking at taking the setup in a different direction and have in mind an alternative man that could better fit that model.
It could of course be that one or more individuals have chosen to leave for other unconnected reasons - personal, career progression etc - in which case the changes have been forced on both KR and the board, but it will still be interesting to see who gets the main say on the people brought in.
If I was to take a stab in the dark, I would guess that the original driver for these changes will have been KR, maybe using his upper-hand in the 1-to-1 relationship with Tiger, and perhaps with dissenters choosing/encouraged to move on than stay under his regime, but with the increase in number and involvement of figures/Tiger's Allies into and within the boardroom (including some with major football backgrounds) then KR might find that his position starts to become a lot weaker very quickly over the coming months/weeks as they look to implement their own structure, particularly while performances fail to offer any argument for his retention.
It may be difficult to pick up amidst the shroud of excuses and finger-pointing that KR employs, but I think we will see a shift from the more bullish approach (in every sense of the word) of the summer to a more desperate, defensive individual over time, as he sees his position undermined from all sides. I just hope the whole scenario doesn't take too long to play out and our league status is not the price to be paid
