And take fucking Sherwood with you!!
EXPOSED!! Levy and Sherwood have been exposed tonight! Levy for appointing an embarrassment to our club and Sherwood for being that embarrassment, in every sense! Team selection, far to late with the substitutions and his ridiculous (Pardew-esk) behaviour on the touch-line! Get rid of the fool now, bring in a Steve Clarke, anyone for the next 7 weeks and start smooozing LvG for the Summer!

In a way that face has been our season.

I hear you, but far to broad a brush for me to say anyone would have failed! TS had no managerial experience what so ever when appointed by DL. Yet both, for whatever reason felt more than comfortable in giving and taking on the massive responsibility of leading THFC! Naivety and delusion are the two words that spring to mind when I think of this pair! And that's being polite!I don't blame Tim for what's happened, nor do i think it's his fault
I do think he was a little naive in perhaps thinking that he could do a lot better than AVB. In retrospect, I think anyone in charge would be set up to fail this season, just the way it is
West Ham should be ashamed to finish behind usUnited and Everton should be ashamed to finish behind us this season

Sherwood WAS held in high regard. Mainly off the back of other peoples work. Exposed like the Emporer's New Clothes now thoughAnyone available at the time AVB left, anyway.
Sherwood is held in high regard and I have no doubts he'll do well, but yes, the circumstances required a man of experience.
He's not done badly at all though and has done his CV no harm indeed.
Agree, he may do well in league 1 or the Championship even, but as you say yourself, the circumstances required a man of experience. Hoddle? Gullit? Dalglish? anyone who had a modicum of EPL managerial experience. Stick a couple of million (peanuts) in their bank account for 6 months whilst you prep your long term goal! Better still stay with, and have the courage of your (previous, well publishshed) convictions and keep faith in the man you gave over 100 mill to spend building a team to challenge for the EPL title and CL football!Anyone available at the time AVB left, anyway.

But all had more to offer (experience) in the interim than Sherwood! The boy has been exposed!Hoddle would have tarnished his rep as a spurs legend. did not get along with sherwood at all. very bad managerial record
Gullit - "sexy football" - was a nob when Chelsea robbed us of CL place
Dalgish...
