TheHolgate 683 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 When I first heard Wilder I was a bit underwhelmed. I'll get behind him in the hope he isn't just another bloke on the managerial merry go round. Link to post Share on other sites

DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 To be fair to Wilder, he did a great job at Northampton, especially considering all the off-field shenanigans that's season too. Link to post Share on other sites

While playing great football may I add. Some people have got a completely wrong perspective of Wilder. 7 Link to post Share on other sites

JT can p#ss off too Dont think he will be doing something like that again with Scott there. Wilder fell out with Prince Abdullah (House of Saud) at Sheffield United, who knows what that dynamic was like. On the pitch, Chris Wilder is a good (and proven) as we could have hoped for. I'm excited. we are only a few pieces away from being a really good team. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Barring back to back promotions he couldn't have done it any quicker! Hmm okay maybe it happened a bit faster than I thought. Still think he's got a hell of a job to get our squad playing like that and things may get worse before they get better. If we see signs of improvement towards a new style of play then I'm happy for this to be a transition season. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Smogzilla 7,484 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I assume Wilder will want Alan Knill in as his number 2. Joined the Wales coaching staff in the summer after departing the blades with Wilder last season. Link to post Share on other sites

Neverbefore 10,940 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Does anyone know what the loan terms on Spence were? Can we recall him in January? A back 3 plus wing backs of this would be absolutely perfect for wilders overlapping centre back style - Dijksteel fry mcnair Spence. Bola Link to post Share on other sites

Warnock said on Sky that the new manager has been lined up for 2/3 weeks, so any recent transfer stories probably have everyone aligned. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

GrimsbyBoro 1,968 Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 This really feels like we were worried about Wilder going elsewhere rather than being a deliberate thought out choice. If he was our number 1 guy why not do it last summer? Why renew Warnock? Why appoint Scott and bring in a guy who doesn’t want/like D of F? It’s going to be an interesting watch. It feels disjointed but I hope it works out. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Just hope wilder takes McNair by the scruff of the neck and tells him to stop diving. Agree that he is perfect for that role though. Dijksteel too tbh. He couldn't ask for two centre backs more comfortable with the ball in this division. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Last season, the only team to score more than that were Brentford with 79. Bring on wilder and utfb Without trying to sound arsey, you being on board with Wilder has cheered me up a fair bit. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
