If you work for a prize **nt like Levy this is what you have to expect .
Just an aggressive runt with a chip on his shoulder which everyone else has to pay for seemingly .
Nah... not quite. If Sherwood made top four, he would've finished out his 18-month contract. The whole thing was about Top 4 and the high-risk gamble that blew up in all our faces.
But Sherwood made it clear it wasn't about top 4; he was just told to score more goals....
Oh, he did say it was about top 4 as well, didn't he? Oh, it's hard to keep all his contradictory statements together - I should've started a book with them in, to keep track of them all
Nine managers in 16 years. Despite what a few deluded people might suggest, thems the numbers I think.I don't understand why anyone anywhere ever, for even a single heartbeat, thought Sherwood would be in charge next season.
Glorified caretaker. Always was. The only annoying thing is that because levy had to massage his ego he'll now go on record as one of x amount of permanent managers sacked in x amount of years.
Unlike say Houghton or Pleat for example.
I genuinely believe those numbers are more a reflection of the lack of managerial talent than it is of our trigger happy nature.Nine managers in 16 years. Despite what a few deluded people might suggest, thems the numbers I think.

I also think generally we've gotten stronger year on year with the odd hiccup.
I don't care if we change every year as long as the upward curve remains.
No, it would have been a different debacle. Remember Pleat?If he had been announced as caretaker manager from the outset this debacle would never have happened. If he had succeeded he would be given the permanent position and if failed it would have been expected. Poor management in my opinion.

While I don't think Sherwood is ready for first team management at a top club I really don't understand all this bitchy animosity towards him. He's honest, humourous, committed... I like Tim.Right out the Redknapp school of being a **** he is. Savvy in a way that as just like the aforementioned he is in favour with the media as a result of his motor gob.
Upward curve - what graph are you looking at? Cos if it's one showing our league finishing position increasing from 4th to 5th to 6th over the past 3 years, then upward curve is actually a bad thing!I genuinely believe those numbers are more a reflection of the lack of managerial talent than it is of our trigger happy nature.
