Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[joe_c]

I think footyskillz is right about the errors. Opinion seemed divided 50/50 over whether Guzan or Lescott were the most culpable for the opening goal on Saturday but it's the manager's philosophy that's responsible for Guzan trying to play a pass with the foot he usually only uses for standing on.

Is this the same philosophy which more recently had Guzan swinging hard at anything which came his way in order to get it to Gestede's head as quickly as possible? (My point is: Sherwood doesn't have a philosophy as such, just vague notions he throws at the team every now and again.)

I' m with Skillz here as well , there were some shocking performances last season too , infact given how we ended the season conceding 11 and scoring 2 would we have been doing that much better with Benteke and Delph still here.Those 2 leaving in particular seemed to have absolved him ( in the media at least ) from the majority of the blame for how poor we have been

Jenas for example saying we would go down with or without him , well wtf are we paying him for them.How exactly can a manager be completely blameless for how the team is doing.doing. Koeman took over a Southampton side who had been gutted last summer and got on with it and did a great job.Look at Rowlett at Birmingham , sod all money and 2nd in the league.

Good managers find a way , Sherwood (and his media buddies )just finds excuses !!

On Sunday, I honestly thought Sherwood would've been gone by now

They may well be thinking that having him in place is better than no-one.  In the meantime putting out feelers for the replacement.
My preference is that they are a bit more adventurous in their selection next time - maybe looking abroad? - rather than the actual timing.  It might even be worth giving Sherwood the Spurs match too as he'd be up for that match (not that I think his 'up for it' would necessarily make much difference).

What happened to the nailed on ITK that Sherwood's time is up?

[mr underhill]

it wasn't nailed on

[Villa in Denmark]

What happened to the nailed on ITK that Sherwood's time is up?

There was a misunderstanding.  Sherwood's actually gone for a manicure. The new nail varnish is dry now = his time is up.

[mr underhill]

he hasn't had a back , crack or sack yet

[Toronto Villa]

it wasn't nailed on

oh really?

hes out next week . I can assure you

promoting Monty to say this and getting this response

Just to get this straight JP (because your OMG 100% ITK reputation hangs on this) - when you say 'next week' do you mean 'after we probably lose to Swansea' or do you mean 'now'?

hes phonimg me tomorrow. Ill private message you mate

and then this one immediately after

and yes before Swansea

Seems pretty nailed on to me

[mr underhill]

you don't actually believe this do you? Well,l not long now to find out how nailed on nailed on is

[Toronto Villa]

believe what? I expect he'll be fired. I thought it would be this week, but have no doubt he's burnt enough bridges to seal his fate, so I expect Swansea to be his last game. The point I'm making if you are going to come on here claiming ITK then it better be good and solid. Otherwise it's TBAR . We can claim knowing he'll be fired because chances are at some point he will be. Just like they'll be celebrating Randy selling the club having told us first.

[mr underhill]

hang on I'm confused.  The guy claiming ITK - are you agreeing with him or not?  I may be wrong, but Saturday is  still this week isn't it, so you either think it will happen this week or you don't
