That image of McClaren is priceless.
The problem we've got now is McClaren's bargaining power now he knows Ashley is desperate for someone to replace Carver for the short term. Big bonus for keeping us up, naturally... but the issue is if he wangles in a contract that means it'll cost Ashley a fortune to sack him. That means we could be lumped with McClaren for the rest of this decade, which I personally can't see us having too much progress with.
So although he's better proposition to keep us alive than Carver and his appointment (or anyone's) must happen early this week... I don't have much hope for where the club will be in 1-2 seasons, regardless if we survive.
