As long as your mate is Sherwood and not Mallet that is ok

Sherwoods job at Spurs looking a bit rocky to say the least.

True, but even with Power's connection, do you think Sherwood would actually come to us?

Is Sherwood actually any good.

I always like the idea of a top pro coming in as manager at a lower level, at the very least they will have high standards/expectations and should, in theory, command the respect of L1 level players.

Worked with PDC, Wise etc.

I think he went about things the right way to start his coaching career, the best part of 5/6 working behind the scenes learning the ropes rather than jump into management.

In hindsight taking the Spurs job will probably be turn out to be a mistake but he could hardly turn the opportunity down.

I'd have here in a shot, he is highly regarded as a coach which let's face it is what our manager position actually is.

I pay little to no attention to the Premier League, but Spurs are in 5th place so surely he must be doing reasonable job at least.
