Honestly could not give two f**ks about Burnley. Wilder should stay because he wants to stay. Him staying just because Burnley come down simply means he will flirt with the next half decent club that is linked I’m hoping they win to keep the relegation battle interesting.

TeaCider24 12,639 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) The line starting to do the rounds in the press right now is that Burnley are hoping to appoint an interim manager until the end of the season and then decide on a long term manager in the summer. If that's accurate, I definitely can't see Wilder leaving for an interim role without guarantees of a job. Though I'd be far less confident after the end of our season, but the blow would be softened somewhat if we fail to make the play-offs as it had been in our hands so many times under Wilder.

If they stay up I can see him going in the summer for prem football, that’s the only way now if they go down he won’t Link to post Share on other sites

Burnley are now 4 points from safety rather than 3. Just need Southampton to batter Burnley tomorrow. Personally Everton finally getting relegated would be funnier to me, although it would probably make our job harder next season if we don't go up Link to post Share on other sites

Obviously Everton going down is the funnier and more entertaining option from a neutral point of view, but I'm not neutral anymore. Link to post Share on other sites
RiversideRed 1,216 Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Burnley won't stay up. They won't leave the relegation zone at any point between now and the end of the season. To be brutal honest. There team is too ***. There's only so long you can hang onto your Premier League status with a lack of investment. Dyche worked wonders there. Even when they come down with parachute payments it's a huge job because you have to rebuild a squad with the average age of 30 and will lose some good players on free transfers too.

Honestly could not give two f**ks about Burnley. Wilder should stay because he wants to stay.

People are (I think) routing for Burnley to get relegated if Wilder goes there before the end of the season. It would serve him right if he bails on us whilst we still have a (albeit slim) chance of getting into the playoffs and then gets relegated with his shiny new toy. Wilder had a chance to build a legacy here. Instead, it seems he is likely to now be viewed as a traitor. Even if there was nothing in the rumours initially, the way he has handled things means that he has lost a sizeable section of the fans. It seems from what Nunthorpe(?) posted yesterday that he may also have lost some of the players. Unless things are clarified soon and, he commits to the club, I think his position here will quickly become untenable because he has lost the trust. I wouldn't be surprised if there had already been problems behind the scenes coinciding with our nose dive in form, but do not have any evidence of this. Ultimately, if Wilder does not want to be here (and we do not know whether this is the case...) then it is best for both him and us if he goes. Otherwise things will just get more unsettled, like they did after Karanka's big tantrum. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Given that Vickers tends to be pretty in touch with fans feelings, I suspect we are expected to read between the lines and assume it is a reference to Wilder and/or Burnley. Edit: just seen the clarification re Newcastle. Link to post Share on other sites
