Quote from: ROBBO on October 14, 2015, 08:51:22 PMSo the tit for tat has begun in earnest, this is Sherwood protecting himself against what now appears to be the inevitable end. I am not saying the article is wrong to me it smacks of the truth but any manager is able at any time to wave goodbye if he feels he has been short sided. Lets get this over quickly.Oh yes. The fact he has used the media to gob off again, when if you believe what has been written gave him 2 games, takes that down to 1. Oh dear.

They should have sat down this week and worked out a package.

The massive point being missed though is these summer signings look very good. It's the haphazard way our manager is going about trying crazy formations, tactics and inconsistent personal on the pitch which is the problem.To me the two guys doing the purchasing have done a bloody good job this summer.

Talking to someone whose opinions I respect (namely Dave Collett) after Stoke we both agreed that he was reminiscent of Tommy Docherty. I said it was because of the way he'd rescued us when all seemed lost in his first season only to end up worse off in his second, Dave made the point that like the Doc, he'd brought in a load of new players but had no idea how to integrate them and was chaging his team & tactics every week.

I agree, too.I like almost all of our signings. They look good. It is the manager and his tactics letting us down, not the new players. If this article is a result of Sherwood's mates listening to him, then it just makes me want him out even more - how does he think those players are going to feel reading this shit? It's all part of his "I can not be wrong" bullshit routine.In many ways he strikes me as immature.
He is clearly peddling this story and deflecting blame now. He can feel the heat on the back of his neck.
