CONFIRMED Wilder gone

[Oohaah! Bob Bookah!]

I can’t see him walk away from everything he’s built over the last 4years+ and I can’t see them sacking him now. So I’m still praying this will all blow over and he’s still our man

it's the hope that kills

The Star: Kevin Blackwell appointed new Blades boss

Enid Blyton would be better

 

[Big Hitter]

They think it's all over.......................

 

[BladeInIreland]

Fu(king furious!!

Wonder what all you McCabe haters are doing/saying right now!!!

If McCabe was here this would have happened a season earlier after not backing him in our first season.

 

[SU93]

He's gone lads. What a fucking farce this club is. Yes this season has been bad but the club has been continuously on the up since he's been in charge. Best football I've seen at the Lane.

If Wilder has walked because of the no support from the board. Well I don't blame him and the board better be prepared for shit to hit the fan as a new manager coming in with new ideas, wanting new players is gonna cost a lot more money than what Wilder would have wanted.

Hope he's not walked

Gone ont bus.

Sheffield United have not sacked Chris Wilder, sources indicate. Clearly a fast-moving situation & may change soon, but as things stand he remains a SUFC employee. More @TeleFootball

Sky Sports News at moment although not surw what Michael Atherton thinks of it. Maybe they got him mixed up with our next manager, tomorrows man.

Wilder is the goose that laid the golden egg.
Where's money coming from if he doesn't generate it going forward? Prince dont make me laugh. Hes skint, as McCabe told us some time ago.
Without him we'll be roundly fucked.
Lg1 beckons.
Fuck me what a stupid football club I support.

 

[Fox1884]

We had similar reports coming out about Pearson during the season before we won the title

Him and his staff had apparently been sacked and the club had to put out a statement refuting it

Probably best to ignore literally anything the media put out about it and wait for an official statement from the club

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Well, this is a mess.

 

[pedro]

Does anyone actually KNOW that Chris has left?

[SuperSonicBlade89]

Dunno, but the twitter account so far hasn't made any posts today. That in it self may say something?

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

A friend of Wilders Mrs says he’s gone. Pretty much confirms it for me.

 

[Yogi]

Sounds amicable if knill took training as I’d expect them to leave as a pair. I wonder if there’s something in this being related to wilders mums passing.

 

[Boxer Blade]

Just been told he is giving his pre match interview at 1.30, not sure if it's on talk sport

 

[JPSharpy93]

If he hadn’t been sacked, the club would’ve come out straight away to put the false reports to bed

 

[Chief_Froley]

whats a BAEM??

Black Asian Ethnic Minority

 

[Bladesman]

 

[Chief_Froley]

Darren Moore?

In that criteria he was the only one that sprung to mind for me. It wouldn't surprise me if it's someone completely random from overseas though (that's completely just me speculating)

 

[Bladesman]

 

[TankersleyBlade]

Not ITK but if we’re looking at a BAME high profile name then wasn’t Thierry Henry supposedly in the running for the Bournemouth job before they appointed Woodgate. He’s already left Montreal for family reasons.

 

[Tazzy]

Maybe just maybe wilder feels its time to move on and has feck all to do with the board anyone really know

 

[aBladeInTheNorthernSky]

why would "BAME" come into it? surely we haven't got rid of the best manager in our recent history just to tick a diversity and inclusively box

 

[TankersleyBlade]

I

Totally agree, if Wilder does leave then we go for the best person for the job. Come the start of next season the only person i’d currently be excited about being in the dugout is.......Wilder!

Don’t rule it out 100% the prince has spent this season cosying up to Jim white and Simon Jordan etc and to a point a high profile BAME candidate would be praised in the media as a forward thinking move think sol Campbell

 

[Stevo]

Someone I know did mention this a few days ago to me and I chose to not believe them...

Same person also said that we're looking for a BAEM manager as his successor so I don't know what to make of that either.

Thoughts?

whats a BAEM??

Isnt it an anagram for a cheese

 

[More Bladier than thou]

As some of u know my Mrs works for sky sports, sky have pulled the story as he IS STILL manager, the current situation is Wilder is still our manager as of 13.30 and talks are ongoing between owners. The press conference has been moved to 5pm now as club hopes to have a resolution. The mrs is speaking with club and they haven’t announced anything due to ongoing talks. I will update through the afternoon if i hear more, the wifes at Shirecliffe now camping outside lol
