TIM SHERWOOD has been appointed the Tottenham Hotspur manager position on a full-time basis, with a contract until the end of next season.
Sherwood met with Daniel Levy, the club chairman, yesterday to discuss his role at the club, after which he was offered the position for the medium-term future. The former Tottenham and Blackburn Rovers midfielder was handed the chance to take charge of the senior squad after Andre Villas-Boas was sacked following the 5-0 loss at home to Liverpool last weekend.
"We have a great squad and we owe them a head coach who will bring out the best in them and allow them to flourish and enjoy a strong, exciting finish to the season," said Levy. "We believe Tim has both the knowledge and the drive to take the squad forward."
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
