Wider never in the running?……

Thought it was Harry Enfield when I saw this

I checked the Leicester forums recently. At that point, in amongst all the options then, 66% were in favour of Rohl, 1.12% for CW.

No doubt he'll continue to look for his next job, but maybe it's time to sit back, reflect on having had the best job any Blade could have, twice, and enjoy what's left of his life?

I doubt he's done as a manager.
The fact he's in the running for the Leicester job speaks that.

If he doesn't get the Leicester job, he will turn up somewhere in the championship later in the season.

If it went tits up for Selles I'd say back here. But whilst he apparently said "doors always open". They will not want to do that so quickly. If we did do poorly this coming season it would be interesting as to how much leniency they'd give this new "setup".

Obviously I want us to do well so fingers crossed Selles storms the league with us. (Or finish 2nd, we like 2nd)

Hes not getting the Leicester job.

 

[LurkerBlade]

Think Wilder would be better looking for another "project" club. Lower league but with some backing (Like Wrexham and B'Ham)

Become part of the community, bring everyone together and a bit of money to spend - if Salford ever push the boat out that could work.

 

[KMC-1889]

He was out of work for a while after Boro before taking the job no one wanted at Watford for 14 games, spent most of the time criticising the players/owners.

His best bet would be to go back to league one and drag one of them into the championship. I think he’d be a good fit somewhere like Peterborough or Luton but any of the ‘big’ teams down there would benefit from having him at the club. Not sure his ego would like the step down though.

He’s not going to get a firefighting/avoid relegation job that aging English managers usually get because he doesn’t have any experience on his CV.

Cifuentes getting it but Wilder was very much in the running but seemingly just missed out in the end.

 

[Dkc]

bit trickier when he's sacked and there's a campaign against the club from his supporters. Players probably think better to stay out of this.

What campaign is this?

Every supporter I know who didn't agree with Wilder's sacking is right behind Selles, because they support the club over any individual employee.

I don’t think it’s a binary as everyone pro-wilder is anti-Selles but if you don’t think there is a very active, very vocal set of fans that are still furious about Wilders sacking then I think you’re deliberately being obtuse. You can’t move on X/Facebook for the wailing and moaning about it.

Suppose it depends who you follow.

Stocksbridge PS. Obviously he could do better but he may be able to relax and enjoy himself there.

If you sack one of your best ever managers you have to expect that there will be a lot of supporters who will be angry about it. They have every right to feel that way.

I'm a fully paid up member of the Wilder fan club. 99% of the time hes brought up on here now is by people saying there's folk who still can't get over him

I agree, but people don't think that anyone can disagree with his sacking and still be behind whoever is in charge.

Selles has done nothing wrong, and all Blades fans want us to do well.

They’ve got to back Selles because there’s no other option now

They have a bright young manager who has just got them promoted through the playoffs. No need for them to change. Maybe Sheffield FC? Not far from where he lives.

Thought he lived in Crosspool...near to Hallam FC.

Maybe not non-league but he may be better-suited to a lower league club where there's no expectation of instant success.

Wilder used to live on one of the Stumperlowes but he sold up when he left first time around. I'd be amazed if he's not in S17 these days.

Back here for a third spell?

Let it go man. Get over it.
