whether that\u2019s the complete lack of communication with the fans or leaving Riza and the players in limbo over his future,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a feeling amongst supporters that the current inertia is putting the season in jeopardy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRegardless of who comes in, it needs to be decided quickly. We have already lost one relegation six-pointer [against QPR],\u201d Reynolds added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Riza, who thinks he has delivered a \u201cgood audition\u201d, has been tight-lipped on his future and stressed that it was not his responsibility to make any decisions about the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But with the club\u2019s silence comes increased speculation as to who may take charge permanently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are Cardiff&#8217;s options?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Finding the correct candidate who is willing to take charge of a club struggling at the wrong end of the table is always a challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fit must be right, and the board would have to be sure that any new appointment would be able to hit the ground running at such a congested point in the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Steve Cooper has been ruled out despite his availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Slaven Bilic, most recently in charge of Saudi outfit Al-Fateh, is available and has Championship experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other managers that have been linked include former Preston boss Ryan Lowe and Steven Schumacher most recently at Stoke City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether these options would be better fits for the Bluebirds than Riza is debatable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He has been at the club since June, initially in a coaching capacity, and knows the squad well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His first month in charge proved that he can get results. A successful December could lead to him securing the job on a permanent basis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The uncertainty surrounding Omer Riza\u2019s job as interim manager
