Clarke or Sherwood

GolfingGull · May 30, 2014

With Clement and Garde possibly ruling themselves out of the running and other candidates odds drifting, it looks like we may be down to a two horse race. The bookies currently have them virtually neck and neck.

But who would NSC prefer out of these two? Put yourselves in TB and PB`s shoes as having to make the final decision in the best interests of the club as well as pleasing the fans. Tough call?

Clarke - no contest.

I felt Clarke did pretty well with West Brom before he was sacked in quite harsh circumstances.

Not too keen on either but of the 2 I'd go for Sherwood purely because i think he's more attack minded. I think Clarke would bore us to death with his negative style.

they both have different qualities as a coach and manger

Sherwood please

Marshy · May 30, 2014

Sherwood No contest.

More attacking football.

Clarke would be a huge dissapointment

I'd be happy with either of them to be honest.

Exactly. But who would you appoint from those two if it were your choice Mark?

Attacking football doesn't seem to fit into the Albion "project", the last 2 managers have been "build slowly from the back" so I expect the same from the bext one. Not saying that's riight, but that's what it will be

Sherwood. Seems to have more passion and self belief

London Irish · May 30, 2014

Clarke, slightly more of a track record but I'd prefer Mackay over both, is he out of the reckoning?

Bozza · May 30, 2014

Clarke is dull. We've just done dull.

Give me the basket case that is Tim Sherwood any day please.

My sentiments exactly.

Ecosse Exile · May 30, 2014

I wouldn't be disappointed with either and if I thought Sherwood would stick around for longer than a season he would get my vote.

But I feel Clarke will stick around for far longer so he gets my vote

Attacking- How exactly is Sherwood more attacking? He had Eriksen (one of the best players in the PL), Adebeyor and Lennon all great attacking players. He had no real attacking style just good players. Clarke got some fantastic patterns of play and formations with average players and made Odemwengie look like a world beater.
Experience - Clarke hands down. He's had exposure to some brilliant managers.
Contacts - Clarke.
Integrity - Clarke. If Sherwood's not trying to charm someone he's being agressive and divisive. His football clichés are unreal. Appreciate Clarke is dull but he's still more interesting than Oscar.

There is so much on this board about what they have done but it is more an issue about what they will each do. Given that much of our defence is changing we are going to need some concentration on organisation there. There also needs to be an emphasis on some entertainment. Either will be good appointments quite honesty and will show how far the club has come. Both have managed in the Premiership with some success and been coaches there, in Clarke's case at the very top. I sense he is more a 'team player' than Sherwood in the overall club organisation and would plump for him. I would expect both to have us in the top half.

Both communicate decently compared to our two previous managers. OK Clarke comes over as a bit dry and dour but if we win enough that will be fine. I would go for him. Sherwood will be great it we do well but may well be a bit unnecessarily divisive if we do not.

I much prefer these two compared to what I would regard as an overseas 'gamble'. Oscar and/or Jones got the results but much of the football was ordinary and communication, at least with the fans, was uninspiring.

Meade's Ball · May 30, 2014

I voted Sherwood. I don't like him as a person, considering him to be a generally prattling penis, but the dreary face of Clarke doesn't instil me with excitement, sadly. It's the same as a political vote nowadays in which we choose the prettiest candidate. That's right Faragites, I am saying you fancy him.

Spot on.

Clement still my number one choice, but if it were a staright choice between these two, Clarke all day.
