Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[ozzjim]

Most depressing thing is that "Aston Villa manager Sam Allardyce" is starting to sound quite decent and I can't stand the square headed twonk.

It feels safe. And for too long we have been clinging to safe with our fingernails.

Not that it matters, as I said he will go to Sunderland who will blink first, and we will be on played 13, points 4, and taking anyone that will be mad enough to come in.

Whether you were for or against his hiring, or just somewhere in between, absolutely nobody could have seen this happening so quickly. It is a disaster.

That's not really true. A couple of us said that this was exactly what was going to happen. 

Keep us up and sacked by November.

Same.

16th place this season, horrendous start to next season, whole sorry process starts all over again.

Blimey, I'll be PM'ing you tonight's Canadian lottery numbers. Off course where I hope it is wrong is if he lasts until November.

In the last 3 games, we've played 6 different formations...a different formation in each half of those games. What kind of manager would set up his gameplan and expect his players to actually know what the fuck they are supposed to be doing if you change the formation and lineups so much not only from game to game, but from half to half. Its so fuckin ridiculous, it's braindead.

Dont even get me started on his post game interviews and comments posted on the OS. Completely clueless and out his depth.

Fuck off Sherwood.

Steady on, I've got money on it.

Don't forget he is from Dudey so. May have alco

He is from Dudley, so may have a local interest. He may keep us up and then move on to more long term manager like the Hammers. Anything is better than Titanic Tim.

Time to fall on your samurai sword Tim. Do the honourable thing.

Do you remember your comments after the famous sty victory when I suggested managers tactics were wrong?

[PeterWithesShin]

Yes I do. I said we were shit in the first half and they still managed to create fuck all. Which is still true no matter how many times you try and bring it up.

[pbavfckuwait]

Last week undecided, this week he has got to go.

[preston28]

After yesterday I cannot say anything but Yes. He is clueless, has no idea on tactics and the players he has bought are a best average and at worst abysmal.

I agree Kuwait. I allowed a longing to have a manager we need not be criticising all the time to cloud my judgement.

I hate being critical of anything claret and blue, the players, the manager, the owner, the kit man. I love Aston Villa but I was completely wrong about Tim Sherwood.  There is nothing of substance below the veneer of sound bites and self promotion.  He is to management what the likes of Savage and Owen are to broadcasting.  They turned themselves into an act and climbed inside it. Sherwood's act has been built on a fawning media and the mastery of a vocabulary of sound bites and good old fashioned self adoration. Sherwood belongs in the media not with a club.

The shuffling the deck comment summed him up perfectly.  He is an old auntie with a pin and the Grand National runners  posing as a professional gambler.

When I texted my son that it looked like the replacement of Lambert was imminent he texted a four word reply. "Please not the cockney".

He was right and I was wrong.

After the last few seasons i can't get my head around the proposition by some that Fat Sam isn't good enough for us or doesn't play the kind of football we like to watch, what world have they been living in?
Lerner wants to sell but can't find a buyer so he isn't going to spend a fortune on players or a top manager
so we are left with survival and mid table at best and i can't think of any other manager that would be willing to come to Villa Park and do that but Fat Sam.
Sherwood on the bench reminded me very much of our last manager, totally confused, bemused and wishing he was anywhere but Villa Park.

[ozzjim]

Times are running Sam to Sunderland this week.

I was wrong on Sherwood to Brian. Totally and utterly, tried to see the positives and look forward after the early displays, but he is as some pointed out at the start a complete and utter chancer.

The only positive is that he did buy some bloody good players although maybe Paddy Reilly is more to do with that. I hope Fox has the guts to rectify the mistake. 5 more games and we will have 26 to get 36 points. That would be miraculous after 4 from potentially 13.

At moment, our level is bottom 5, 38 points, 4-5 home wins a season. We have a manager so inept that he make those numbers looks aspirational. Fat Sam would be a nectar from heaven with his tedium and functionality.

I'm sick of losing. It's been going on for 6 seasons now. I crave a bit of mid-table tedium. When we have mooked around 13-9th for a few seasons then I will put my bottom lip out about style and philosophy.

[Mister E]

Alladyce to Blunderland's, I'm assuming.
Knowing Lerner, we'll get Schteve.
