Many good posts about changing the set up and it needs to happen.
Of course Wilder probably isn’t happy at selling players than not having any money to spend. “The board have fucked him over”. Brooks was sold on day 1 of the window, Hamer rejected a contract, presumably some weeks before the end of the season. Fair enough O’Hare was last minute but we should have been looking for a player to compliment/use instead of anyway.
Is this seriously the best we could have done ? Was this the plan all along, to return to a 4-4-2 ? I’d love to know if Wilder is happy with who he’s got and who the other targets were. I wonder what he’d have done with £30m
This is where a DOF can come in to advise the owners and say the guy wants old has beens OR that he’s put some really good suggestions/visions forward and it’s just not come off. To be fair, Wilder maybe needs to hear that his squad is fucking wank.
The owners are clueless so do need some sort of ‘impartial’ advisor. But they’ll have Wilder & Bettis resisting it and it sounds like they attempted it with James Bord and that spectacularly backfired !
I don’t know how they can get to the point where they can make a decision on the restructuring. They can’t ask the Prince now
