Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[rob_bridge]

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

JPA said before Swansea. That means he would need to be sacked tonight or tomorrow although he has done a press conference has he not for this week's game.

Of course 'This Week' includes all of Saturday but before Swansea does not include 14:59 - 23:59

I agree with him that he'll get fired. Just like almost everyone on here thinks he'll be fired. I just didn't come out stating categorically he's gone because of some inside knowledge, and also ensure it would be before Swansea. JP was very sure based on what he heard and therefore was confident enough to proclaim that this was done and dusted. It clearly wasn't and isn't.

That's one of the most annoying things. Atleast with Deadly you could read him, you knew what he would stand for and what we wouldn't.  This lot, well i've no idea whether they've actually learned from the whole Lambert saga or not.  What is their thinking a decision making process?

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

The ideal time to get rid of him was when L'pool got rid of Rodgers, at the start of the international break - but then again they had Klopp lined up to replace him. We had nobody, and quite likely don't have anyone now either. Therefore it wasn't really on the cards that we'd get rid of Timmy last week, esp seeing as no-one gave us a prayer of beating Chelsea, and it was only 2-0 anyway. However,  if we lose at home to Swansea, the mood will be so vitriolic that they won't have much choice other than to fuck him off. Hopefully.

JP's a solid poster though. I don't for a moment think he was attention-seeking or anything. If he's wrong, I think he was wrong honestly. There's no 'Mod will make an announcement soon' nonsense about this.

[David_Nab]

Well you could say that after the Swansea game the next 2 games we are not expected to win so wouldn't be any pressure on the new boss..but hey who knows with Villa..

Lambert should of been sacked many times over and just carried on so timing is not our strong point ...

We continue to work tirelessly for you though.

Pfft. You're only in it for the biscuits, you sell-outs.

He is a solid poster. But the constant suggestions, teasers and general feeling that he had some scoop was attention seeking, whether it was by design or not. If it was danlanza we'd be smashing him for it. The general rule is if you know something, great. At the end of the day we are all on hear to know something before it hits the media, and I was praying he was right as I wanted Sherwood fired on Saturday afternoon. But look back on how many pages it went on. As you pointed out yourself, he presented himself as ITK based on the information he had received, and he needed to live up to that or with the consequences of being wrong.

The truth probably is I was probably really, really really, hoping he was right and someone not called Tim Sherwood would be manager this Saturday.

In fairness, I did the same on hearing something similar on the back of it but did try to caveat with new source.

There's a difference between saying "something might happen but I'm not sure" and what Juan Pablo has done, basically saying "Sherwood will be gone" but doing so in a self-aggrandising "I know something you don't know, wink, wink" kind of way.

He's normally a decent enough poster but it's not surprising that some people will feel a bit disappointed that he was wrong given the desperate need among Villa fans to cling on to any vaguely positive rumours at the moment.

He's behaved in a very TBAR kind of way.

Why doesn't JP explain the situation for himself though, like Cheltenham has ? We can all guess as to his motives (probably innocent enough), but only he knows the truth.

I'm off for a garibaldi.

I think that's a clue.

Garibaldi. Red shirt. Always die in Star Trek. Sherwood's gone?

It said more than that. it told us who was coming next.

Garibaldi. Currant. Currant Bun. Sun. It's Appy 'Arry.

[Legion]

Garibaldi. Biscuit. Crumbs. It's Mark Hughes.

[Malandro]

Garibaldi. Its Megson. That makes perfect sense.
