New Manager ?

[Blade56]

So save the pigs forumhas announced Wilders been sacked!

If true they’ll be meltdown if that’s how we found out.


Then jubilation when DoF announces Rosiner as new manager.

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

Hope he has, plenty of good managers available this summer

 

[Younger Dryas Blade]

Absolutely. Shoot for the stars and you might hit the moon...

Is this another dig at poor old Simmo?

Sunderland will have an all time low points and Leeds will be relegated and not close to staying up whereas Burnley have a chance as the bottom six teams in the premier league if they were playing in the championship would have shipped far more than 15 goals.

Leeds conceded less chances than Burnley across the season, a less shite keeper and they would have put up similar numbers. As it is, they broke the Championship previous goals conceded record anyway, until Burnley bettered it. And see how they do once Trafford is gone.

i knew he was doing great things at rayo vallecano. but i never watched him in a game

Leeds wanted him when they got big Sam I think


You take a risk and go for managers like that instead of employing Gary Rowett

 

[CornwallBlade]

Perhaps a plan is in place along with the people effected .perhaps it's been outlined to CW and other staff if a management restructure is to be implemented.
Not unemployment law expert but think you have to give 7 days or so notice of so maybe just going by the book.
Not saying they are replacing wilder but a change of role etc may still require some notification period .

Errmm in the context of the sums involved in letting CW go, I really don’t think employment law comes into it. We’re not talking about shifting a standard employee on, it’s a negotiated £2-3m exit

Isn't AI just software that sifts through data?

Yes, most of what you read is bollicks. General use platforms are simply scraping historical (old) web content and presenting it as original thought

 

[CornwallBlade]

The AI is mainly used in the measuring of player data on the pitch, to get more accurate stats. There's a good article on it here

https://www.sportspro.com/insights/genius-sports-data-danish-superliga-ai-technology/

The human element will be filtering the large databases by whatever attributes they're looking for and what weighting they place on each metric.

So, passes completed, for instance - Tip tap across the back line job done, its largely bollocks

Well for passing, they segment by types of pass. Short, medium or long; progressive, sideways or backwards; through-ball, switch, pass into penalty area, etc.

 

[Mendi]

So far he is in a job.

 

[S64 Blade]

After slow Simon’s revelation, I’m actually convinced he’s staying on.

 

[luffenhamblade]

This thread is comedy gold. Thank you for keeping me laughing this week.

 

[BalticBlade]

Is it today, dad?

I think there's every chance he goes imminently tbh. I don't think the owners will be overly happy with the way last season ended up going. I imagine Chris isn't overly happy about how transfers will go either with the data driven approach, and the owners will be less inclined to let him have his own way after the binfire of January. And let's be honest, new owners aren't famed for their patience.

The contract extension was a massive mistake considering the compensation that will be due, but given how much we had to pay in fines last season due in part to Wilder not having control and pouring petrol on the fire of PASHUN, I think they'll view severance pay as money well spent.

I'm mixed on it. If he stays, I'll not mind, but worry we'll be somewhat stale. If he goes, and depending on his replacement, I'll be happy to see a new direction for the club.

 

[Bill puntin]

Wilder sacked

 

[T-Blade]

Yep pretty sure he’s gone.

 

[Danetheblade]

Yep pretty sure he’s gone.

I’ll take this one as fact.

Lawrence Lewellyn Bowen?

 

[Gin&Juice]

Yep pretty sure he’s gone.

Can we begin the thawing of Howard Kendall?

 

[Montytheblade]

There's plenty out there, we could go for:

Free:
Carrick
Sahin
Cooper
Selles
Farioli

[Gin&Juice]

I demand Ancelotti’s offspring. I want us to be the team of the virgin Football manager/data nerds, continuously referring to us as an “intriguing project”.

 

[redandwhitewizard]

Maybe there's a Nigerian manager working in the Bulgarian league that we could go for.

 

[Blade56]

Is it today, dad?

It’s today or tomorrow, oh don’t start that again 56

 

[Blade56]

Said it before but if true I see announcements going as…
1. Mutual consent thanks (deservedly) to CW here’s a Waitrose bag so you can use front door
2. DoF announced
3. New manager mon/tues
4. Club/owner statement with a clear plan

You can have a like but stop nicking my manager suggestions

Continental model. New Gritty Wilder would be no match for Helmy and his robotos

Have you polished up the stoning memes and gifs mate ready

 

[Boxer Blade]

Imagine if the pigs manager Rohl was announced, dont expect it to happen but just, for a minute with the shambles in S6 imagine the absolute mayhem it would cause

 

[Blade56]

Been buying up cheap rocks for months while market was low. Price has gone crazy since the speculation started

 

[sufc323]

I actually think he'd have gone even if we'd have been promoted. The new owners seem like they want someone who is on board and embraces their strategy, which is exciting and terrifying in equal measure. What I can't work out is why give Wilder a new deal? Unless relations have soured since then.

It's a huge gamble and they risk losing the trust of the fanbase if it goes tits up, but if they get it right then they're gonna look like geniuses.
