If, as we all suspect he is our new manager, let's as supporters get behind him for what I think will be a very interesting last 15 games of the season.
Come on you R's |  |

From what he showed at Tottenham Sherwood knows fck all about tactics and is too arrogant to learn. Saying that though any under-11s coach should be qualified enough to sort us out with more shape than HR has, and anyway there isn't the time, even Pep Guardiola coudn't overhaul us overnight. You'd think anyone coming in with a bit of positivity and life would have an effect after this.
Sherwood does have credibility as far as youth coaching goes, and he has said the right things in the media about players in the lower leagues. We're certainly at heart a different club (with a different possibly more receptive squad) than what he had with Spurs.
It could work. Smart modern flexible teams will still mug us off terribly but basic competence is enough for midtable in the league, more than enough to keep us up. Difficult to overstate how abysmal Hull and Villa are for instance - they're just not dysfunctional the way we have been. |

The worry for me (as I've already said many times) is how appointing Sherwood undercuts the long term planning of the club by entangling it with the short term - if Sherwood flops is Les going to be the one to sack him? To appoint his successor? To carry through his job building the infrastructure of the club? |  | | |

Anyone with something to prove. Sherwood fits the ball to some extent. I think he'll inject a bit of passion, which we've been lacking so obviously for years. |  | | |

First things he should do are release Rio, get Zarate in behind Austin and Petrasso on the left wing.
He'll be an instant legend. |
Is Petrasso out on loan at the moment? |  | | |

Surely we'd have as better choice of candidates in the summer with those whose contracts are expiring rather than rummaging through the pile of everyone else's cast offs now?
All (!) we need now is someone who can light a fire under the players to get a few results so we stay up. |  |

I don't think he'll be looking to come in short term though. His whole thing at Spurs was that he was planning for next season and players needed to play for their place. Since that seems to be so much a part of hus style I'm sure he'd be looking for 18 months minimum. |  | | |

According to the Grauniad he doesn't have the requisite qualification (UEFA Pro Licence) - though he's working on that. Spurs got special dispensation to allow him to manage - presumably the fact that he was only caretaker and was in-house may have been factors in getting permission, which wouldn't apply to us. On the other hand he's now closer to getting the qualification.
On a positive note, I suppose there is the slight chance that the Licence does in fact involve learning something about tactics and just maybe he's learnt something since his time at Spurs. It's a million-to-one shot, but it might just be true |  | | |

Don't like to Rock the boat here chaps, but I don't particularly like Sherwood. He has only managed for 28 games, doesn't inspire me at all and knows nothing about our club. The sky bet list doesn't do it for me either. A load of have beens on there. Would like Les till end of season and then maybe Howe from Bournemouth, but if they get promotion he will stay there.
My opinion counts for nothing, but I know one thing I'm looking forward to Saturday!!!! |  | | |

Rocking atmosphere ??? The saints are having a season and a half and we have one fit striker I can't see this ending in any other way than almost every other defeat its horrible to say but it's a second load of players that just are not good enough and tim sherwood is no saviour of the masses [Post edited 3 Feb 2015 22:48]

Nah, Essex is right. It'll be bouncing and positive.
A dark cloud has been lifted from the club. Les, a club legend, has won. He'll have a heavy influence on Sat. The players will lift their performance and work rate levels because they all know they're playing for their places (whoever comes in).
Even if we lose, I'll wager they'll be applauded off. |  | | |

Not that I'm making a comparison but it took more than 28 games for "Sir" Alex to make an impression.

Fair comment Blob. Personally, I don't like Sherwood's arrogance, I think he should have started managing at a lower level rather than be giving it the big billy big boll0cks and practically demanding a premier league job. after all, he's proved nothing at all. He won't take prisoners, though, he'll be more hands on, and if Les thinks he's the right man, we have to believe he has reason to think that.
Would rather it's not him, but will certainly get behind him. Redknapp I hated from the start, never wanted him, never got behind him because I just don't like or trust the man. |  |

Sorry Blob, that's just plain untrue.
Before he got the Man Utd job Ferguson was a highly successful manager in Scotland, had broken the Old Firm monopoly and taken Aberdeen to two European trophies. If that didn't make an impression they weren't taking notice.
Of course he had to start somewhere - which he did as a part-time manager in the lower Scottish leagues. If Sherwood had done that and impressed I'd be all for him, as I will be if we were to appoint say Karl Robinson or Eddie Howe.
There's no comparison with putting Sherwood in charge of a top flight side on the basis of 28 games as a caretaker manager and without even the basic formal coaching licence required under League rules.
I'll certainly get behind anyone appointed, and don't expect immediate success. But I do expect that unless there is no alternative the candidate for a job - any fecking job anywhere - should have the basic qualifications and abilities to do the job. And yes, that is being judgemental, because I'm making a judgement, i.e using my brain to make an assessment. That's what happens in a job interview, you look at the candidates and you judge them. This club would be a while lot better off if the chairman started to do that. | | | |

This is easy !
Surely we must follow Southamptons example. There will already be a list of managers who fit the bill of embracing our clubs football philosophy from the first team down to the u9's
They interview those already "vetted" vigorously, appoint the right man and we march on up the table

I'll support Sherwood if he becomes our manager. Tbh i dont mind the cocky cheeky chappie personare as long as he gets the results on the pitch and gets the best out of the players. A bit of enthusiasm would be good to see again. |  |

Age wise he fits the bill
He's worked with the youngsters at Spurs
But he came across as arrogant and, if he hasn't got the qualifications, then he's not going to be the best candidate. |  |

If we appoint Sherwood without actually interviewing other candidates it will prove our current Board are utterly clueless and simply not learnt a thing.
This is key appointment for us now that could define the next 5-10 years of the club. Or knowing our luck, simply define the next 6 months. | | | |

Agree with this.
While I'm glad the East End second hand car dealer has departed, I'm not going to get excited about Sherwood if he comes to the club, but let's wait and see what happens. But your're right Vish, more candidates should be interviewed instead of cutting corners and possibly appointing someone who by all accounts by some on here, hasn't the full qualifications for management.
