We have arrived at the point where a change at No10 is about as noteworthy an event as a change of manager (coach?) at Stamford Bridge.
At least at Chelsea there does always seem to be a more honest and earnest debate every time about whether the whole problem goes a lot deeper than the person with the high viz, high stresss role at the top.
I suppose Starmer has actually faced a fate similar to Arne Slot at Liverpool. He ought to have had a bit more 'in the bank', but was ultimately undone to a greater extent by the erosion of his bond with die-hard supporters, rather than results on the field which, whilst not great, were not entirely calamitous.
It's not so much that the fan base fell out of love with him as that they discovered that they had only really cared for him when he won.
And it just so happened that a really attractive alternative had just become available...
