Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[Duncan Shaw]

His biggest mistake has been not buying a proven goal scorer.

Stick with it for now, but I only see it going one way. However he's earned the opportunity to have a go at it, and the money he's spent he deserves more than 7 games.

It's shite though. It really is shite.

He's had more than 7 games. He's had one more, to be precise, and he lost that too.

As always, a minimum of ten points from the first ten games is my benchmark. Anything less should be a sackable offence straight away to my mind

I agree he should have, but would it make a difference?

Gestede's scoring rate is fine. Goals ain't our problem, really. We've scored 2 goals in four games this season and not won any of them (including Notts County).

Granted we've lost 1-0 at home three times so I can see where you're coming from. We're jsut a mess.

Our best players, for me are: Grealish, Gil, Amavi and Richards. Richards is never a centre half, Amavi can't defend and the other two can't get in the side.

My one problem is reading that people still want to give TS another "x" number of games. As I said in an earlier post, I only had a season ticket because I loved his enthusiasm and straight forward talking. He's now ditched both those things so, I have gone from a TS worshiper to "get rid of him now!!" camp. Sorry, but I'm more interested in the future of our great club than I am to wait to see IF he can turn it around.
Like ADS I played football and managed teams for a long time and, believe me, he has had long enough. We don't want a last minute, "see if we can get out of the shit at the last minute" again.

So, Brendan Rodgers anyone? *Ducks into the trench*

We already have a manager who cannot organise a defence, why would we replace like for like?

He has a 40%+ win ratio in the Premiership overall.

Remember 40%??

So maybe he can get us to I dunno 30% as a starter. 10 wins from here should keep us up.

The issue is we don't have the luxury of giving him to much more time , we are already 4 points from safety.It's conceivable we could be as much as 10 points cut off after the next 2 games.

He has to win at least one of the next 2 or be shown the door , we look as limp and lifeless as we did under Lambert at the end of his reign , especially the outdated use of using 3 at the back.The other manager in the league to use that is the newly unemployed Rodgers.

Why is that a problem? We're not the decision makers, we are just one vey small group of supporters talking about it on the Internet.

In any case surely having a few different voices is healthy, encourages debate and helps sharpen the arguments. I have seen decent points from both sides of the fence but in the end it is going to be down to what Fox and Lerner think and given that he is the formers first appointment, one who he has backed in his first transfer window, I think they will give him a little longer yet.

Hi Chris,

I never mind different points of view, it's what football is all about and, my humble offering is my point of view. However, I have seen enough that, in my opinion, we will be virtually relegated if there is no change of manager to one that has had at least some modicum of success at another PL club. If they decide to keep TS and, he get's us out of this mess, I will be the first to come back on this board and eat humble pie!!

I don't care who does it for our great club and, just don't want the board to be panicked at the last minute with another poor managerial appointment.

Hope that clarifies.

I know they are in a different situation to us, and are considered one of the 'big' teams, but I find it really depressing to read the headline 'Liverpool make contact with Klopp'.

Obviously there is no guarantee he will go there or that he will be a success if he does, but those fans have something to look forward to now, and they have hope. I'm jealous that they have something new to look forward to.
 
Our hope is limited to winning a few games at home and not being in a relegation fight.

I too can't see the point in keeping him on, I feel sure we aren't about to start winning games so by delaying the inevitable we are just making it harder for the next guy through the door. It's the awful tactical decisions that have drained my confidence. Weird substitutions and formations suggest he isn't up to it. I just could not believe the starting eleven and formation on Saturday, goodness knows what the players make of it.

We'll be red hot favourites before long.
