We won one game from beating Chelsea in mid March that season. Drew one and lost 7. He was getting dogs abuse at Spurs on the final day and should have been sacked.Quarter of a season and 4 points, utterly inept.
7% win rate at StokeHope they keep him .I noticed he was at Villa for nearly 3 years so why did it feel like he was here for about ten years

Didn't we have a run of six games without a goal and then the next season we win seven games without one?!That's why I can never understand why on here and elsewhere Sherwood gets more stick. Yes we were poor under him aswell but we did have memorable games under him and he was only here eight months so it was all over pretty quickly compared to Lambert.
The one thing about Sherwood was he had the ego for the size of job unfortunately none of the ability. He got the new manager bounce and somehow got us to a Cup Final and kept us up and for that I’ll always be grateful to him. His true ability shone through the season after with the collapse at Leicester and what followed.

Of course but at least it was over soon after (albeit the damage had been done with our transfer dealings).If Lambert had got us to 2013 Carling cup final Lerner would've probably given him a ten year deal!

I always wonder what would have happened If we had won that Leicester game.I thank him for the albion and liverpool cup games as there had been so much shit for years up to then .

Ultimately we’re in this to win stuff, it’s what this club should be about. Maybe my expectations are too high but I expect this club if run and managed well to be top half of the Premier League each season and competitive in Cup competitions and qualifying for Europe on a regular basis. The last 7 seasons have been torture.
