Sherwood still in Rovers' thoughts
7:00am Saturday 13th October 2012 in Sport
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
TIM Sherwood is still high up in Blackburn Rovers’ thoughts to be their next manager – but the Lancashire Telegraph understands the club are still at the exploratory stage of their search.
Bets were flooding in on the former Rovers skipper to replace the departed Steve Kean, moving him to odds-on, as the club yesterday began to think about sounding out potential candidates.
Sherwood is still understood to be Singh’s top pick but Rovers would have to pay hefty compensation to get him away from his coaching position at Spurs.
It is believed the Londoners knocked back an initial approach from Rovers a fortnight ago but no further official attempt had been made at the time of going to press last night.
It is understood a shortlist drawn up by Derek Shaw, Paul Agnew and Shebby Singh includes several names, with one believed to be Sherwood.
It is understood no formal approaches are expected to be made over the weekend though as, having decided the ‘type’ of manager they are looking for, Rovers will spend the next couple of days investigating their options more thoroughly.
A number of candidates are expected to be interviewed before an appointment is made and, with the majority understood to be in work, the process is expected to go on for a while yet.

SG has come out and said Sherwood is his clear favourite for the job and I, for one, accept that he knows a lot more about the Club and football in general than I do.
If it takes time to get Sherwood let's be patient and let them do their job thoroughly for the first time.

If shebby and venkys look at sherwood before solskjar they are stark raving bonkers. I do not look at things through Rovers tinted spectacles and Sherwood, although he would probably have a better win ratio than Kean,then again so would puddsey bear, would not win promotion for us Solskjar might do, depends how bad the squad is and how unfit they are..

Unfortunately for us OGS does not want to come to the Rovers. If he wanted to be here then he would definitely be my first choice too. I would be happy with OGS, Benitez, Sherwood or Shearer. The club wants Sherwood so that is OK with me.
BTW one of Sherwood's many roles at Spurs is as Technical Coach/Manager of their highly rated Next Gen team.
Next Gen is a new Pan-European League is in its second season now and is a showcase for a lot of the top European clubs young academy players.
Some of the top clubs in Europe are taking part - such as Barcelona, Inter Milan, Marseille, Man City, PSV, Ajax, Arsenal, Spurs, PSG, Chelsea, Celtic, Anderlecht, CSKA Moscow, Liverpool, Juventus, Bor Dortmund, Olympiacos, Bilbao, Sporting Lisbon, Fenerbace, and others which include Ole Gunnars club Molde.
So Sherwoods lads are getting excellent experience competing against the top young players in Europe. He would be perfect to get our club back running properly and playing decent football again, from the Academy right through to the First team.
But its down to the club now to make their move, lets hope its all done quickly and that the new structure can be in place before the Derby game.

I honestly hope Sherwood is not chosen for the vacant managers job. He was one of the first out of the door at Ewood when things started to go wrong after winning the title. He was also one of the main culprits for loosing the now current England manager Roy Hodgson his job at Ewood and then laughing about it. We can well do without that mentality at Rovers.
Hardly one of the first; he got pi$$ed off when he saw Fat Boy Kev (Davies) getting paid top dollar for doing f@ck all - about three years after winning the title.
Not convinced he would be the right man though. Still drawn towards OGS.

If it's experience you're looking for then you would go for Mick McCarthy with his win ratio and history of getting teams promoted. He was also popular amongst supporters in the LET poll.

If you want to go for an inexperienced manager but a popular and respected choice with supporters - and one who would guarantee to put bums back on seats - then you would go for Alan Shearer.

OGS - manager experience but in what league could he handle the pressure from shabby?
Shearer - people are drawn on his Newcastle record but every job is different would bring back fans
Sherwood - no direct management experience but has worked with/under/along with Harry and avb bound to have picked up a few pointers
In a nutshell avb came from Porto with a record second to none to Chelsea and basically didn't work bt now he's working his wonders at spurs so the he's got experience he doesn't is irrelevant
Sometimes it just works and I for 1 will be behind the new manager Rtid

If thats the kind of record you want then Big mick is your man. But Keith Hill Simon Grayson and ole gunnar solskjar have been far more successful at going up, staying up and not going back down again which is mick mcarty's specialist subject. He just loves relegation the guy thrives of it. In fact he's more successful than steve kean in that area. you say mick macarthy has a 40% win ratio, so all his teams in the PL would have finished 10th. No not on your life, he has a 40% win ratio taking into account lower leagues. Kean has the same ratio in lower leagues too. Mcarthys win ratio in the PL is almost as bad as keans And he has a nose like a banana

Actually as a business model...a yoyo club is a sustainable model for a club the size of Rovers. As long as a promotion to the PL is achieved every 4 years then the club should be in a fit financial state. Fans would probably be happy to see their team being successful every couple of years rather than stagnating in the PL. It certainly helped to reinvigorate Newcastle United and West Ham of course. It is probably what the likes of Aston Villa need to bring back some excitement, to break up the monotony.
.
If we can get someone in who can get us back to the top of the league then the confidence will be back, the supporters will be back and we can all start looking forward again.

I wasn't rude to you in my reply to your original post, so not sure what your problem is - but I am not getting down to your low level with insults so I will let this go this time. Next time I will report your childish yet threatening comments.

One afternoon in a Lytham over a few wee drinks in their favourite pub ,HENDRY told KEAN that he had the Rovers fans in his pocket and he would be able to keep the angry ROVERS faithful fans off KEANS back .
This would allow KEAN to keep getting his 30,000 pounds a week.
Kean thought 30,000 pounds a week this is was good money for a man that`s never played decent football ever in his life and never managed a football club .
HENDRY said OK I will come to ROVERS and take the heat off your back but I want 10,000 pounds a week , and he got it, this is the reason we are lumbered with the scoundrel HENDRY .

If you're looking for experience of promotion from the Championship then you would go for Mick McCarthy for many reasons.....first of all he actually has got 2 separate teams promoted, secondly he wouldn't cost a penny in compensation and thirdly he wouldn't need Hendry to sort the defence out (so could get rid). He would also have a backroom team experienced in English football. He seems the overwhelming favourite and I cannot really understand what the problem is tbh and your childish remarks won't change MY mind or any other mature level headed individual.
