Wilder OUT - megathread

[Gimli]

I hear yours and many others frustration however I'd be surprised if the owners dont have a post wilder ( possibly post Bettis) strategy.

This season was always going to be about seeing it through , avoiding trouble and starting afresh next season. I'm pretty sure this will be wilders last season in charge , perhaps he knows that and has accepted the brief.

Over half the squad will go in June and it'll hopefully signal something of a new era .

Its not great to write off the season in November but we were never going to be challenging the top 6 in reality.

Its not a defence of anyone , just going to be a case of getting to the end with our status intact , I think we'll manage that uninspiring as it is.

Think this is wishful thinking, where’s the evidence that the owners have any sort of long term plan?

 

[Slim Man]

Easy remedy. Dont watch or listen.

Thought you'd never show your face again. You been on the Sunday shandies?

 

[RandomBlade]

Got a life thanks, unlike some it would seem. You should try it sometime. Get your mum to unlock the cellar door and let you out.

My main qualm with the latest Wilder era and it's frustrating as fuck, is that we aren't using this time wisely.

I know we don't have a given right to be competing at the top end of the division year on year, but we should be using this time to modernise the infrastructure and staffing hierarchy of the club so that isn't entirely reliant on one man and a small scale operation.

There are absolutely naff all signs of this planning taking place. Until we do this, the next man will ultimately fail.

None of that can happen while Bettis is here. He is openly against modernisation of any kind

Is that a plan for the coloured baubles on your Christmas tree?

Then Snek out, I guess

 

[Keen Blade]

I hope you're right and I do sometimes think they must have some sort of a plan going forward but their actions suggest not. It feels like there's a lot of people protecting other people at the club at the moment with Bettis, Wilder, the scouting team etc all people who have worked with each other for an awful long time. We just feel like a stale club that needs a sledgehammer taking to it

Yeh , but a sledgehammer would just leave the corpses to stink the place out.
I lean towards a chainsaw and a roasting spit

Points return for United

6 --------- 2

10----------4

5 of the next 8 matches against create a lot/don't give up a lot teams. Also Millwall who are close

There is no evidence , only that they have a strategy team , for their faults the owners aren't thick and very different management structures at other clubs is well known.

From that i'd say it more likely than less likely that they know at some point it has to change, if for no other reason than to protect thier investment.

I suppose the question is when rather than if.

From a risk management pov , letting wilder continue this season and retaining the status quo without long term player contracts was probably lowest risk .

For now its very much a holding position, rather than progression which is incredibly dull to witness .

I love Brasso

The colour, the smell the scorched skin

Yeh but will it polish turds as they are formed ?

 

[jt64]

Give it another ten minutes and Carrick will be available

 

[chesblade]

Don't think his interview after game was that bad, it was obvious seriki injury was on his mind

Scuppered his plan to move Choudhury into midfield, where he should play.

I’m having a go at him for yet again thinking that ton of shit in a half ton number nine shirt is worth a place on the bench let alone getting on the pitch. Absolutely atrocious. Looks like he’s got Lundstrams Disease.

Anyone saying “but he doesn’t get the service” can do one as well. He makes Connor Sammon look like prime Jimmy Greaves.

To be fair , Connor Salmon did play like jimmy greaves ..... after an afternoon in the garden shed on the secret vodka stash !

Not seen Cannon miss one like this…yet

He's never in that position to miss them
