For now, at least. But generally, there's a better track record for coaches sticking around when they have been brought in under their general manager. For example, Schmid was let go by Doug Hamilton, who came on board after Schmid but stuck by Steve Sampson, the guy he brought in. Lalas let go both Bob Bradley and Steve Sampson, but did not fire Mo Johnston after appointing him.

Lalas backs Yallop

Then again, Lalas didnt fire Mo for a few reasons, two of which being the fans writing en masse in support of Mo, and (IIRC) Yallop not wanting the job. Mo was pretty much what Lalas had.
