There are some but not loads, especially in the modern era

But then history is also scattered with so called Top Managers, failing at their next club

I will make no judgements on Sherwood until end of Jan. He would not have been my first choice by a long way, but he has my backing for the minute, as any new manager would
I'm genuinely interested to find out who these "some" are (bcos I just go with the general impression that I have-and I could be completely wrong)

I was genuinely questioning anyone who thought tha


I seriously didn't want Hoddle (not even til the end of the season) but I'd take him now!

I'm giving Sherwood time, but if things don't improve I'd love Hoddle to step in until after the World cup.

Think he'd do a great job in the interim with our talented squad.

With this appointment Levy has checkmated both himself and Sherwood so it has to work out for both of them. If it doesn't and Tim is a monumental failure then he will struggle to get another top job and Levy will look like a horses backside for getting us into this mess and will probably fall on his sword. I too would have gone for Glenn until the end if the season with Tim as Assistant. Glenn is too good to have been out of work for this long and is sure to have learnt from his past mistakes. With technically gifted players such as those we have in our squad Glenn would do a great job in my opinion. However, once again Levy has made our bed, so we are going to have to lie in it for now and see how it goes....................

The Sherwood OUT brigade is way over the top. The guy's managed 3 games in less than 2 weeks; you are not going to see a fully functioning team until Sherwood is given time to implement his plans.

You can criticise Levy for sacking a manager mid-season after backing him with £110 million in investments but reading newspaper reports it is clear that AVB left for reasons off the pitch rather than on it - working relationships are important. If the chairman doesn't see eye-to-eye with his manager then the manager has to go because it will never work.

We are in a mess of our own making but first the situation is not dire; relegation is not a possibility. Second, there is still hope for this season and if not we can rebuild for next season. Teams fade away, we had a top team for 4 years that finished 4th, 5th, 4th, 5th.

We are in transition and we are going to have to accept that things are going to take a while to change. We have lots of new players, young players coming through the youth ranks and a young and keen manager.

Let's back this team because whatever you have said about Levy, he brought us from the dark days of Gary Doherty and Michael Brown to now where 5 points off 4th and a place in the Europa League knockout stages is not good enough.

I remember when that was what we aimed for.
Genuinely, I don't think there is actually a "Tim Sherwood OUT brigade" (yet); I think there may be a "Tim Sherwood should never have been in the position where he was the most viable candidate" brigade.

I can't believe there is a thread about this after 3 games?

Do you remember when we were shite and fighting relegation? Get behind the manager and judge him when he has a full fit squad

To be fair, the OP is taking the piss out of the knee jerkers.

I think we need to lower our expectations. Sherwood is out of his depth. He will give us more basketball end to end heart ripping football. What did you expect? Everybody, be prepared for 10th place.

It was clear yesterday the football triangles where players look to receive the ball was still missing. Holtby and Siggy were missing. Erickson intercepted a few and thus was not forward enough. Holtby was deemed by sherwood to be ball winner but failed. I thought soldado did ok but Adebayor was tired with poor movement.

The CBs were not up to stratch.

I think with sherwood that is what you get.He is absolutely living up to my expectations.

What i fail to comprehend is why no capoue.????
I like the statement "be prepared for 10th place" - I reckon we could be in a scrap for 7th

Ffs get a grip! He has had 3 games with hardly a first team squad to pick from
Just curious, have you seen anything from Sherwood that says he'd do better if no one was hurt? I sure as hell havent. Its like he is putting together a team from picking out of a hat and telling them to go on the field and play. No tactics, no control. The product on the field is an absolute mess.
