GENTLEMAN Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Sherwood is very much like Pearce all talk but utterly useless at actually producing the goods Sherwood is mentioned in the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaCas Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 .....it may have the desired effect, but is it right and is there a much more intelligent solution.what would a "much more intelligent solution" look like exactly? it was a question, not an answer......I have commented many times, i don't know the answer, just questioning the rationale behind changing managers every 5 minutes.That's an absolute cop out! So people are wrong to want Sherwood gone, you've got no alternative solution but you suspect that a much more intellgent the answer is out there? If it were up to you how long would you keep Sherwood assuming no win on Saturday? Spurs, MC? Everton? Watford? when would enough be enough for you?? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 If the board haven't made up their mind about Sherwood then they are even more clueless than I feared.Surely the only reason he's still here is that Villa are still searching for/negotiating with his replacement?

Lambert had just under 3 years before Sherwood. Although Sherwood has only had coming up to 9 months, he is averaging less than a point a game in his time here, so if he doesn't improve soon we are going down, unless of course we bring a better manager in.We only change managers, because we are so crap at getting the right one in. Last season Moyes and Pullis were available - we missed em - this season wever already missed big sam.Houllier, Mcleish, Sherwood - all looked very risky appointments even when they were made - Lambert looked slightly better but in the end couldn't cut it. IMO 3 ot the last 4 managers were doomed before they started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watford? when would enough be enough for you??Personally I'm not convinced that there is any alternative manager that can sort this mess out. Packing the squad out with untested premier league players was a massive gamble, we went down this route with with Lambert with the whole young and hungry plan which we seem to have replaced with the foreign and look good statistically plan. Both of which are a bit shit IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El-Reacho Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 If Bosnia Herzigovina were to knock Ireland out of the Euros in a couple of weeks does anyone think Lerner may go to the only manager who's brought him any success in football cap in hand? O'Neill's stock is nowhere near as high as it was when he left us so it could be as good a gig as he's likely to get again.Any takers?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Richard Posted October 21, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2015 Anyone mentioned the AVST statement ? http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/aston-villa-supporters-trust-liken-10300280 Aston Villa Supporters Trust liken the club's struggles to pantomime season in statement 20:03, 20 Oct 2015 Updated 20:03, 20 Oct 2015 By Mat Kendrick AVST have issued a statement following Aston Villa's worrying start to the season 109 shares 2 comments Aston Villa fans at Villa Park Aston Villa Supporters Trust have issued a statement in response to the club's worrying start to the Premier League season. A return of just one win and one draw in nine league games has left Aston Villa with four points and 19th in the top flight table. They are calling for the board to make public their position on manager Tim Sherwood's future and remarked "Pantomime season does not start for another two months." The AVST also refer to "infighting" at the club and have demanded that it stops. Here is their statement in full The AVST feels it is important to comment on some of the recent goings on at Villa Park. A dreadful start to the season sees us yet again faced with a relegation battle and the club starting to be cut adrift in the relegation places. Regardless of our individual views on who should be held accountable for the position we find ourselves in, the AVST wishes to remind those involved at all levels of the club that their first duty is to our loyal supporters. To provide them with a team they can be proud of and to show the ambition that a club of our stature deserves. Villa Park For two weeks now there have been stories leaking out of Villa Park, seemingly from both the manager and the club, and the AVST demand that this is brought to an end. Pantomime season does not start for another two months. It seems there is a clear decision to be made and this should be at the forefront of the minds of our board. Do they believe Tim Sherwood is the man to take us forwards and do they believe it is appropriate for him to do so? If the answer is yes to both, then they need to publicly back their man and ensure that everyone starts pulling in the same direction to get us out of the mess we find ourselves in again. If not, then this cannot be allowed to fester. An immediate change needs to be made in order that a replacement manager can have the maximum amount of time to arrest our slump. We have had enough of the infighting. It is time for the club to take decisive action, one way or another. AVST 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if he brings Keane with him I would take him back if he brought Robertson with him - he hasn't been the same manager without him.

KJT123 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I think he will definitely be sacked on Saturday night if we fail to beat Swansea. The AVST calls for either him to be sacked or for the board to come out and offer support to TS. It's obvious that Fox is thinking about it otherwise we would've released a statement by now.
