WITH HIS TEAM struggling in League Two, Teddy Sheringham feels he can provide the spark needed to reinvigorate the club.
Having taken over as manager in May, he’s found the going tough and his side have won just three times from their sixteen league games so far.
At the weekend, they suffered a thumping 5-1 defeat to Oxford in their own backyard. From the last ten fixtures, Stevenage have won just once.
So, Sheringham – who turns 50 next April, has decided to take some extreme action.
He’s registered as a player, as has his 41-year-old assistant Kevin Watson – and the duo could play in a Herts Senior Cup tie against Welwyn Garden City on Wednesday night.
Next weekend, Stevenage face Gillingham in the FA Cup.
In August, Sheringham – who retired in 2008 after a glittering career in England with Manchester United, Tottenham, West Ham and Nottingham Forest – proved he still had it.
With the BBC cameras at the Stevenage training ground, the 1999 Champions League winner rolled back the years and conjured a truly breathtaking finish.
