A change of style - refreshing!

Any idea what his football style is? Understood it was somewhat route 1? Be there again is that not also.... Leicester?

No idea, I think it'll be "Upandatembladeyblade" if you ask Pinchy

I don't think it is route one BF,although I've not seen much of them play...one interview I saw him do a couple of months ago,they asked him what the secret of the success was,and he said "we always turn up"...At the time I was thinking if only we could say that about recent United sides...I think Northampton play a 4-5-1/4231 under Wilder.

The sort of Bladey Bladey Bollocks that drives me to despair. No interview ever won a point. Bob Paisley had all the overt passion of a broom handle; likewise Bill Nicholson. Count the trophies.

No welcome from me Chris.

Pasty pasty bollocks

To be honest, I don't give a flying F about us producing quality football.

The only thing that matters to me, is getting promoted to the Championship.

If that means bringing in 8 bruisers, that kick the shit out of the other team, and scares them so much that they don't want to go in for the 50/50 tackles, then that's fine by me.

Chris Wilder has been around the lower leagues long enough, and had enough success at different clubs, to know what's needed to get out of this shit league.

All it needs, is for the usual minority of morons, to keep off his back long enough for him to make that happen.

For years now, SUFC has had so-called supporters that can't wait for a manager to fall flat on his face, just so that they can be proven correct.

It was the same with Bassett, Warnock, and managers before them.

No one wants to see United play quality, skillful football more than me, but I'm also a realist. Getting players to play like Messi, and Ronaldo ain't gonna happen in League 1, so if it means passion and muscle to get us promoted, then I'll back that method all the way.

If we get to the Premier League again one day, then I'll start being more demanding of the quality on the pitch.

He kind of reminds me of Wilson, but with more fire in him (not that Wilson lacked fire, but he was measured in his media approach).

He reminds me more of Mickey Adams in his Port Vale days. Wilder has a similar record to that Adams had too. Success at lower levels, and a big Blade.

This club wears down even the most passionate of managers. I don't think we can read anything into Wilder's past interviews. I like the bloke, but then I liked Danny Wilson and Mickey Adams. I prefer his interview technique to that of both the two Nigels - but he does remind me of Mickey Adams, and to a lesser extent Wilson. Hopefully he'll put together a nasty, ruthless team that won't take defeat lying down.

People may mock his "Bladey Bladeness" but one things' certain - Wilder knows what this club is all about, including how fans can turn on a manager when things don't go our way. We're not going to win every game, and might not even be in the top 6 by Christmas. But we need to stick by him and not get on his and the players' back.

Hopefully he knows full well that we need about eight new first teamers. He might be able to get more out of Matt Done and Che Adams, though.

Interesting that over the past ten years, three of our managers have been Blades. Four if you count Morgs.

[blade too long]

thing is if Chris gets us playing with passion , the fans will get involved again
Adkins never got the fans out of their seats, I saw us 4 times this season and even the 2 we won the crowd was flat, wasnt getting giddy
3 points was greeted with relief
we want much much more
