The fact that Sherwood wanted his targets and Riley had his own shows a complete lack of cohesion at the club and no overarching plan as to how the club should have been structured. You really have to hang that on Lerner's and Fox's shoulders before you get to Lambert/Sherwood/Riley.

I think while Sherwood can be criticised for Lescott Richards etc., at least they were players who had some form so yeah they didn't turn out well but at least they had at some point played to a decent standard before we brought them. Reilly seemed to spend millions on buying no-marks who remained no-marks and left no-marks. I don't think we've ever had one guy responsible for bringing so much arse to the club in such a short time and thats saying something with the likes of Lambert and TSM.

Anyway that's if the stories about who bought who are accurate, and let face it, if it is true, it was a horrendous way to run a club's transfers. (Thank you again Mr. Lerner)
