Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[aj2k77]

Keeping Westy on corners etc is in itself a sackable offence.

Keeping him in the team is a sackable offence, the guy is plain shit. Employ me on £1k a week and I'll roll 5 yard sideways passes and point and be slow and shut off, save the club a million quid a year.

That's even more reason not to jump the gun after a poor start I suppose.

It's not just the poor start. Look at end of last season? He has been heralded as saving us however I would like to differ by saying that he almost relegated us. We were saved because Hull messed up.

[Stirchley Villain]

Anyone else thinking what I'm thinking? Maybe not next week, but if things don't improve by Xmas?

[Malandro]

We should have beaten both Sunderland and Leicester and we also could have got a point at Palace.
We could easily have 11 points now.

It's worrying where we sit but surely too early to start looking for a new manager. Sherwood certainly doesn't deserve abuse.
He comes across as pretty honest to me.

The end of last season wasn't great but he's brought in his own players now and just had his first ever pre-season so I'd just like us to stick with it and see where it goes.

No thanks.

His first pre season ever and players have entered the season looking half fit and the team with no real style or defined way of playing. Doesn't look good to me.

Having a 'Sherwood-Get Rid' is all a bit, well Albion really.

You were there mate what was the opinion?

Yes, those managers at least had a decent record at other clubs in the past but Tim does not have anything, why some people (me included) think he is a chancer.
There wasn't anyone singing 'Sherwood Out', put it that way. I could probably understand this thread if it was around December and we were in a similar position. McLeish didn't get put any pressure until March time but Sherwood is getting it already, it's ridiculous.

McLeish didn't because he'd put 11 points on the board by now.
Even Lambert got 5, then 10, then 10 again.
Given how we all saw the way those seasons panned out, I don't think it's too ridiculous for people to start reacting.

That's even more reason not to jump the gun after a poor start I suppose.

I've tried to understand what that could possibly mean but honestly have no idea.

It means what it says. We started well last season and we ended up struggling. Just because we've started poorly doesn't mean it's going to happen again.

Opposite. We are struggling now and nothing so far shows that changing, it could get worse. He has no record to show he is decent manager likely to turn it around. I hope he does but he was employed on the back of 9 games (?) for Spuds.

Our league form under him last season, pro-rated, was I think 49 points, which is comfortable mid-table. He did save us, just that we ran out of steam by the end.

We've had to fit in a bunch of new players but that's not enough to excuse 5 points from 7 games. Only cause for optimism is that we've lost a bunch of points from being idiots, which you would hope will be cut out in time.

We have all worked with people who are full of bull and have big mouths and they generally get away with it when things are going well. The problem comes when the bull continues and things start going badly. They get less sympathy and time because people can see their bullshit has covered for any semblance of talent.

That is Sherwoods problem.

He isnt throwing his gilet down now when we score is he?

He is trotting out excuses. Yesterdays press conference was awful. He has spent £40m and is aiming for 17th. Talking about survival after 7 games, you couldnt make it up. God knows what effect that has on the players morale. He is effectively saying we were shit, we are still shit and if we can hang on this season everything will be ok.

Joker of the highest degree.

Get rid and now please

[aj2k77]

A third dour Jock in 5 years....

[aj2k77]

I'm not a Sherwood hater but his last few press conferences have been pretty shit. Leicester, Rags and Liverpool a lot of babble not much sense.

[mr underhill]

but one that has a much better record than the last 2

Which of the new signings do you have a problem with?

I think the 40 million was spent very well. Getting them to gel in two months is difficult.

This isnt about the signings. Like you I think we have some decent players. i never wanted Lescott but his fee is a drop in the ocean. Clark was arguably our best players before getting injured at Spurs. He is superior to Lescott in my view.

So my issue wiith with the manager. A better manager would get more of our the team andthe tactics and team choices and subs as discussed ad nauseum on here recently are my gripe
