A title inside his Blackburn years

Blackburn Rovers won the 1994/95 Premier League with 89 points, in the middle of the years Tim Sherwood spent there. The career record places him at Blackburn from 1992 to 1999, at Tottenham Hotspur from 1999 to 2003 and at Portsmouth in 2003–2004, with 246 matches and 25 goals for Blackburn in all competitions.

Up, then down

The archive's tables show Blackburn climbing from 4th of 22 in 1992/93 to 2nd in 1993/94 before that title. After it they finished 7th, 13th and 6th, then 19th of 20 in 1998/99 with 35 points. His spell is dated by year only, so it is unclear whether he was still at the club when that season ended.

Steadier at Tottenham and Portsmouth

Tottenham's league finishes in those years sat between 9th and 12th: 10th, 12th, 9th and 10th from 1999/00 to 2002/03. Portsmouth finished 13th with 45 points in 2003/04. His own league appearances are not counted in any of these seasons, so the club tables are the evidence here, and they put him at Blackburn for the best of their Premier League years.

Coverage Some club spells are dated to the year only. The club's league positions listed for a spell are for the seasons inside those years; the player may not have been at the club for all of each season, and appearances per season are not held. The archive holds no team sheets in which this person played, so it has no match-by-match figures of its own for them. Team sheets (line-ups, minutes, cards) are held for 2025/26 only; earlier seasons have results and tables but no player figures.
