They've retained Craig Forsyth - I always thought he was a decent left-back, don't know why we sold him.
Basically this says Marco Silva might be off to Valencia. These people still attract big jobs despite failing it seems.
Happens a lot in politics too - and in Education. I've worked with teachers who were entirely useless at, and unsuited to, the job who rather quickly moved up the ladder. One or two who even bacame school inspectors...
