terrytini Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I don't get the anti Sherwood comments. He isn't proven, but proven managers can fail at new clubs, and unproven ones can succeed. His record at spurs was good. He is a decent coach by all accounts. He has an edge to his character, so did Fergie, Shankly,Saunders, Murinho,and in their own way BigFatRon, Gregory,and Saunders. It can be a good thing, it sometimes is not. He seems to have an ego - see above times 10 ! Some of the names bandied around are so far fetched I cant believe they are serious suggestions. He may not work - I think he will (but I spent two years thinking Lambert would !) but he is by no means a daft or suicidal idea as some are suggesting. At worst we end up going down - and that goes for whoever it is, we have left it late. At best he could be a positive, attacking minded manager who keeps us up and grows into the job, bringing youth through to blend with the best of Lambert's buys. As it happens I always quite liked him from what I saw....not as a mate, but for his unschooled, natural approach to stuff around the games. good post Terry Whats good about it? That a man with 4 months experience was compared to four or five of the greatest managers in footballing history. People are so relieved to have got rid of Lambert they are happy to take anyone as they see it as an improvement. You should look again I didn't compare him to them. I merely said that having an ego, an edge, .....or if you like even being almost totally bonkers !!!.....CAN work. And by the wag there was a time when every manager had only had limited experience. Are you suggesting that in some way experience is by definition better ? Experience fails too. McLeish was experienced..? I just think given our circumstances which limit our possible choices he is a reasonable enough choice with potentially good points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I can't get my head around why fans are so anti-Sherwood. 28 games worth of experience, never bought a player, has no experience in building a squad, and he's an absolute bellend It's a far bigger gamble than we should be taking 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrUnKeNbUm Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I would be happy with Sherwood. No nonsense, honest when talking about his players. If they have had a mare then why bullshit about it.... I dont see a problem with that. On the other side if they have a great game he talks them up. They are fully grown men paid a fortune to have the honour of playing professional football. Take the rough with the smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dodgyknees Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 (edited) Sherwood, exactly the sort of appointment I'd expect from a club owned by Lerner. Cheap Average And exactly the sort of appointment you'd expect to see at a club which is in limbo. **** off Lerner. PLEASE.

smetrov Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Tim Sherwood currently the only manager under consideration by AVFC. No deal yet but could be in place for Stoke game http://t.co/oJz1KbQfRn Sam wallace, chief football correspondent the independant Well thats good were keeping it tight - I do think if he hanks about - plan b will be swiftly executed - Curbishley, Mcallister, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnmacf Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Odds on Sherwood have halved on SkyBet in the last few hours. 1/20 down to 1/10. Probably just signifies people believing it's done and thinking they are getting free money... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I'm surprised that people who used the 'we couldn't get anyone better' defence of lambert are now suddenly pissed off when we can't attract a top manager to the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony whatsisface at QPR could afford Sherwood - I doubt he is coming cheaply.

AshVilla Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Was Sherwood actually the Success behind his time at Spurs or was it Ramsey and Ferdinand Both of those are now at QPR so will not be coming here It will be Sherwood on his own with some thrown together backroom team mismatch like Lambert and Roy Keane Can't wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyh29 Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I think with right leadership we can turn this around.....Tim Sherwood reminds me of John Gregory, that southern swagger, that can galvanise the lack of self belief that is smothering us. if Scunthorpe is Southern where the heck do you live , Iceland ? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
