Poll - Sherwood - got rid
« on: September 26, 2015, 05:43:12 PM »
I know this is probably a knee-jerk reaction and proof that O'Leary was right we are all fickle etc etc, but my patience has evaporated after staring down the barrel of a 6th relegation battle in a row.


I wasn't too enamoured with the decision to appoint Sherwood, but he won me over with the cup run and keeping us up, even though we fizzled out a bit.  After 3 years of Lambert, I'd had a titful of the dour Scot and Sherwood's energy was a refreshing change.  But it turns out the Spurs fans were entirely correct in their description of him as "Tactics Tim" and I want him gone before he does any more damage.

PS Mods, we don't really need another Sherwood topic, so if you can use some trickery to put the poll on the main thread, please do.

He's fucking useless, but my biggest fear is who next?

We've appointed some utter donkeys who have overseen such diabolically poor football for what will be six seasons now, that I am not sure where we go next.

It's clear though that the manager has not go the first fucking clue and doesn't deserve any more opportunities.

short term we can appoint Sam Allayndce but longer term no idea apart from Klopp.

Imagine what statement it would make if we bought in a boss who wasn't just a pick from whoever was available?

Mind you, Klopp and Ancelotti are, and there's not a snowball's chance in hell of us having the budget or the cojones to try it.

Well, it's worth pointing out that it'll never happen. This board are more averse to admitting they're wrong than they are to Villa doing badly. They'll stick by their man, have no doubt.

However, if it were up to me, I'd tell him thanks for saving us but that Villa need more than an on-the-job trainee to make us viable in this league long term. I was a signed up sceptic when he came in, and while he did a lot of good for is in those horrible days, everything I worried about is now happening. The merciful thing to do, for everyone, would be to let him go.

I voted 'Undecided' as I'm willing to give him 3 more games. Stoke, Chelski, Swansea.

I'll be expected at least 4 points though.

He's signed some interesting players, with potential, but has not worked out how to use them effectively. Will he ever?
He doesn't appear to be learning.
We can't afford to get cut adrift.

Yes, not just because of the results, but the results combined with the awful play, mind boggling tactics and all round fk wittedness.

Give him another 5 games, if nothing is improving let's hope the fucking num nuts in charge have learnt their lesson and won't let things drift and drift.
