We have a great squad and we owe them a Head Coach who will bring out the best in them and allow them to flourish and enjoy a strong, exciting finish to the season.
"We are in the fortunate position of having within our Club a talented coach in Tim Sherwood.
"We believe Tim has both the knowledge and the drive to take the squad forward."
Sherwood is getting abused left, right and centre (much of it deserved I have to say), but let's focus for minute on the man who appointed him and reflect on the statement above. I thought the bolded statement was at best very optimistic at the time, given Sherwood's complete lack of experience; now it seems positively deluded.
How has Sherwood, at best out of his depth and at worst a complete embarrassment, come to be so highly regarded by Levy? Given Levy's track record of hiring managers is mixed at best, do you you trust his judgement in recruiting the next manager (or god forbid keeping Sherwood on)?
I think overall Levy has been a decent chairman but in this area I now have zero confidence in the man.
