Probably because he’s not some random foreign manager with an ‘exciting’ name. It's more the apparent lack of planning - Wilder is selected now because he is unemployed and because Barnsley and whoever else are interested. If NW made it to the end of the season, I don't think Wilder is in the running. If he was top of our list, why have we waited so long to approach him? We could have had him in the summer. It feels knee jerk, rather than considered, long term thinking. 7 Link to post Share on other sites

Tuns 232 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Apparently Warnock and Gibbo had a meeting last night and Warnock told him he didn't rate Upex pies. Gibbo was fuming. Link to post Share on other sites
boro-unger 3,817 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Shame it didn't work out with NW. He should have left after keeping us up and he'd have been a hero on Teesside. Just stuck around a bit too long. Now seems like he's going to be slagging us off to anyone who'll listen. Not sure how i feel about Wilder. Did well with Shef Utd, but I was hoping after bringing Scott in that we would unearth some gem of a manager (a Karanka with slightly better man management) and be a modern, progressive club. Wilder doesn't feel all that modern or progressive. Cue Scott quitting in the next few days as this was all done over his head... 5 Link to post Share on other sites

JT can p#ss off too Apart from those signings being horrendous. You look at the signings he made and his playing squad with Sheff United, there certainly wasn't any Payeros and Sporars amongst them. Again just feels like the club is confused about where it wants to go. 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Boro 86 511 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I personally would have wanted Mogga back but I know many would shoot that down and it ended badly last time but I will give Wilder my support. As for Warnock glad he had gone . Today’s interview again showed his lack of class . He has massively underachieved with this squad , regardless of what he would have everyone believe Link to post Share on other sites
SouthernSmoggie 4,223 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Hmm not excited about Wilder tbh. Took him a long time to build an (admittedly good) side at Sheff Utd. Are we going to be that patient? How long will it take to get the players he needs for that style of play? Link to post Share on other sites

Didn't he take Sheffield straight up after League One? Or was it 2 years? Either way, he had to do a complete rebuild job of that club in League One and was pretty much untouchable there until it all went kaput, as it so often does at every club these days.

Neverbefore 10,695 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 In 4 years, wilder achieved promotion from league 1, promotion from the championship and a 9th place finish in the premier league. 9 Link to post Share on other sites

He got them from League One to the Prem within 3 seasons. Barring back to back promotions he couldn't have done it any quicker! Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 (edited) Chris Wilder got promoted with Marvin Johnson in his squad I think he'll like what he has to work with at Boro, except GK - time to bring Stojanovic out from the cold? Link to post Share on other sites
