Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[PeterWithesShin]

Yeah what we really need right now is a total basket case in charge. Maybe he can bring Roy Keane back as to be his assistant. I'd truly despair if it was Pearson.

Next to the special one, he may be the most obnoxious tosser going but what is essentially his Leicester team aren't doing too badly are they?

I don't mind obnoxious, it's that I think Pearson seems dangerous. He has the look of someone that will go postal at any moment. He's ay all there.

Go bold, go and get De Boer. We think too small time

Yes.

[maidstonevillain]

It was right he should go.  But I will be eternally grateful to him for enabling me to share two memorable days with my teen-age son (WBA and Liverpool), when he was able to experience for the first time the same highs that I had experienced and told him about from the 70s and 80s.

We need proven Premiership experience

Yep, it's worked the last four times.

Sherwood wasn't proven, Lambert had what one year with Norwich? Again hardly proven. McLeish was proven, to play bloody awful football and at getting relegation. While Houllier was a proven health risk, but without the heart problems who knows where we'd be now? A lot better off than we are now would be my guess

Okay, let's get in a proven Premier League manager. Like Sir Alex Ferguson, or Wenger.

[martin o`who??]

We had a few brief but fantastic moments under him and I thank him for those.

Don't think they're available, but Moyes might be. My point is the last three managers were nowhere near the likes of Moyes in terms of calibre and proven Prem experience

I'd almost be able to stomach Nigel for a short term contract , even though he's a very nasty man. but perhaps that's what we need to stay up.

This 100%

I think Pearson went at the right time. There's no way he'd have kept that form up. He'd have taken Leicester down this season.
I think he's probably as much of a chancer at this level as the pillock we've just got shot of.

Moyes, Koeman, Klinsmann there's not a prayer that any of them would be interested in coming to Villa Park. We need proven Premiership experience & whilst Moyes might be the right fit he isn't going to come.

Anyway whoever it is, we can rest assured that it'll be the wrong man at the wrong time.

As much as I'd like to pour scorn on your opinion John, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if you prove to be spot-on. God help us.

[gpbarr]

Thank God.

Now the hard part. The club have gotten this terribly wrong in recent times - now isn't the time for another up and coming young manager with little PL experience, or a foreign recruit with no PL experience. We need a proven PL operator even if the style of football isn't exactly beautiful.

There is one man for the job - his name is David Moyes. Get him in this week and let's start building from the back.

Villa Park is a tough place for the home side. Visiting managers say keep the crowd quiet for the first 20 minutes and they will turn. That has not just been the case for Tim Sherwood, but any manager. Who can realistically come in and turn it round? But when you go there it's a big club.

not surprising, and I think during Jack's issues Sherwood handled it well. But it's a results based industry and Jack and the others need to know they contributed to this. So play better for the new manager Jack.
