Dyche could rescue this season. I think he’d look at these players and be able to determine their strengths and weaknesses and get them playing to suit their qualities and if they don’t show them he would be clear if they don’t someone else gets a chance. I am not saying it’s a premier league appointment but it’s a very good championship appointment. I live in Leeds and when we sacked wilder my mates laughed and thought it was a great decision and so do other fans because he had successful teams, pundits new and fans knew that he was good. If you replace him you don’t replace him with a manager others laugh at as they are poor and want him to stay managing us. Dyche would be a statement, we aren’t fucking about and you can dislike us again.

I had my doubts when i read Séllés was being considered for the job I never thought it could be this bad though. COH have made phuck up after phuck up. If they wanted to sack Wilder they should have done it on the coach back from Wembley. Then to appoint Séllés but not get any players in beggars belief, a load of panic buys in the last week of the window doesn't make for a good transfer window. I still think Wilder had run his course at the lane but why Séllés when there was plenty of competent managers they could have gone for over the summer?
Make no mistake we are in deep deep shit, clueless owners, clueless manager, a squad of player with no confidence and hearts and brains the size of a pea. Some of the new signings must be wondering what they have come to, some of them can't even make it into the matchday squad. Can the Swedish lad or the Nigerians be any worse than some of this lot? From the day they spunked £10m on Cannon every choice COH have made has been the wrong one, how to destroy a club in a few months, even Chansiri wasn't this quick at destroying the pigs.

Fair points…..it it highlights the down side of having a consortium as owners instead of a single owner like the Prince.

Many assume a consortium will be best….more opinions, more expertise with democratic decision making
However we’ve seen haphazard decision making as though some in the consortium have 1 opinion whilst others have a totally different opinion.
Wouldn’t surprise me if some of the owners wanted Wilder to remain in post whilst others wanted a change….hence why the decision was delayed.

What’s the saying “too many cooks in the kitchen spoil the broth”.
Sometimes democracy can stifle and delay decision making…that’s when having 1 owner who is accountable to themselves can be an advantage.

Selles wouldn't have been here in the first place if Wilder didn't muck up the end of last season and he totally bottled the final with his tactics.
The owners had a choice to make, they wanted the team to play in a more positive/ attractive way, and there is nothing wrong with that and has a fan of course I want United to play positive entertaining football, I respect that Heckingbottom and Wilder managed to get points on the board however we played but the football hasn't been good since Wilders first stint.
but Selles is the wrong appointment no question about it.

Very fine lines, didn't totally bottle it. Had a very dubious VAR decision gone the other way, United would have won.

As much as Wilder suits us as a club, we cannot just keep going back to him every time we get in trouble otherwise we'll never go forwards as a club.

Why not try repeating the trick we had with him in 2016, by going out and trying to find the next Chris Wilder.

We will do that after 6 seasons in L1

He would because he set us up well over the years and is really pationate, we could always expect hard work under him which for fans I think is the main thing we want it's why we warmed to McBurnie and Robinson. Just don't see Selles being the manager under him. We would need a manager who makes players graft and fight, make us hard to beat.

I would get excited for wilder as DoF and Dyche as manager. They are mates and really mutually respect each other. Dyche a proven prem manager, Wilder proven pationate no mess blades fan who set us up well as a club over the year just could not consolidate us in the prem and sometimes made bad in game decisions or player "boring" football. But all of Wilder work has being undone by the new owners sadly.

Fuck that. That's exactly what he's not good at (proven time and again). If we get him back he needs to come back as head coach, with someone else responsible for signing players. Moving to analytical signings is the right way to go. Sacking wilder and appointing this donut was the mistake. If Wilder can't move with the times and accept things are done differently these days, he's not the right man for the job.

Either way, he absolutely mustn't be in sole charge of signing players (especially if large amounts of money are involved). At most, in terms of signings, his role should be as part of a panel, with others involved in signing decisions.

Having him back as DoF not manager/head coach would be the worst of both worlds, he'd be in charge of signings (something he's shown he can't be trusted with when large amounts of money are being thrown around) whilst also not doing the things he's repeatedly show he's good at (tactics, brining squad harmony, getting the best out of players, and so on).
 
Fuck it bring the band back together. Go 3-5-2 and let’s go on a real nostalgia trip

Have a day off sticking pins into the Wilder doll and have a look at the league table man. We’re in an absolute crisis and need an experienced man to sort it out.

I hope we'll move on, if we don't, I wouldn't grumble too much at Wilder being given a head coach role.

He absolutely shouldn't be given a Director of Football role, and hopefully not even "manager". First team head coach - he picks the players, is in charge of tactics, gets input into signings, but someone else (or a group) is ultimately responsible for player signings. This is the way football is done across most progressive and successful clubs around the world these days. The days of a guy in a sheepskin coat being responsible for all club activity (including player signings) is mostly behind us. Legacy.

p.s. you're also absolving him of being part responsible for this crisis, some of the worst offenders are Wilder signings. He can 100% get a tune out a broken piano (no doubt), but send him shopping for a Steinway, he's coming home with the world's most expensive knackered Casio.
