CONFIRMED Ben Mee - 1 year with an option

[Bladesman]

Something did happen. I'm not entirely sure what but there was a fall out. Notice Mee fails to mention Wilder in his statement.

Not sure it will ever come out unless Mee releases a book

I think so and I also think that was partly the reason our form dropped as sharp as it did.

Wilder has barely mentioned Mee's name since January and the press have clearly been told not to ask about him.

Alan Knills nephew posted something on X earlier today that suggested there had been a fall out. Since deleted though so maybe got into trouble for saying too much !

One down, 19 to go.

In the matchday programmes this season every single player, without exception, has said that Ben Mee is the current squad member who is most likely to become a manager. He’s a bright and ambitious guy who won’t have been afraid to voice his opinions.

A lot of wilder haters just choosing not to acknowledge the fact Ben Mee has chosen a photo of him and wilder together, obviously showing the reason isn’t a fallout with wilder

I don't put much stock into the idea that footballers are choosing social media photos for cryptic reasons, but for what it's worth Mee hasn't posted a photo of him with Wilder. That's a fan-run account that has posted the photo along with Mee's message from Instagram:

Ah. In other news how do you delete posts?

I don't think anybody has criticised Wilder over this have they? If Knill's nephew is right then, then there might have been a good reason behind the fall out

Fair play. Shit like this always happens in football

Surprises me as Mee is the type of character & experience that Wilder usually respects & protects even if they don’t see eye to eye on everything.

It wouldn’t surprise me to see him turning up at the pigs next season. They’ll be mostly reliant on freebies who are at the end of their careers, but with some experience.

Yeah but like last season he didn’t utilise Holding often either. Why would you rely on Robinson over him?

Wilder is blinded by his stubbornness sometimes. We can all see that experience was needed in that defence. He goes and gets Leo who’s just got promoted with Sunderland and he can see Burrows is struggling defensively in matches but opts to not utilise Leo to see out a game.

Why bang on about “experienced heads” if you are hardly going to use them? Is it because they may question some of his tactics.
