Outgoing? Chris Wilder

This world is very strange now we demand 24/7 news even when there is not any. This is why crap like 24hr sky sports news exists. Hating or liking people based on up to 250 characters

How do we know this to be correct?

How do you know they haven't backed our sacked him?

This is pure speculation and they only need to tell us something when there is something to say, surely?

That was my position originally but the speculation is off the scale now, in the local and national media as well as the fanbase. If they have no intention of sacking him, a statement backing him is definitely needed.

In the absence of a atatement many would conclude that he doesn't have the board's backing. In which case it looks like the longest sacking on record which is not a good look. If Wilder's definitely going, they should issue a statement confirming that regardless of whether they have someone lined up or not.

As someone who wants him to stay, I hope that the decision to replace him ia not unanimous and the.silence is because they can't agree on future plans. But as I said, allowing so much speculation to go on for weeks makes the club look unprofessional.

Even a statement saying things are under review would be better than this.

"Things are under review"

 

[Bladesman]

Whatever happens, it's shown that our new Cleveland overlords are just as shit at communications as PA or anyone else.

Back him or sack him. Don't keep it dragging on for weeks.

If there is still a settlement negotiation going on then they can't make a public statement either way.

It's the middle of June. If fans are losing their shit over a few tweets from a collection of tin pot journos and internet agitators, that's their own fault.

At this specific point in time, there's no need for anyone to feel entitled for a statement or update when the facts aren't even known.

If the uncertainty that's arisen carries on for another fortnight then maybe it will be more understandable by then.

Can't see that. Wilder's contract should have clear settlement terms related to dates if he leaves before the end of his contract. And if he is indeed being sacked, the settlement is irrelevant. He's still out of a job. Why not tell the fans?

It's been reported in the Telegraph, Guardian etc

He might be on gardening leave, in Magaluf.. with a Peroni... shouting about sausage rolls

 

[paidsy]

You can see why PA didn't deal with some of the local press.

I don't blame him for refusing whatsoever. These lot are more cheerleaders for the manager than any sort of serious media.

 

[Davalon]

Saying his position is under review? Like in plenty of other places.

I'm pretty certain all will become clear by the time the players return for pre-season and many things will be happening behind the scenes in the meantime.

I'm pretty sure most of us are keen to see make the most of the financial advantage we have this season and go into the season as best prepared as possible.

I just don't get the desperation for an update or statement every day for the last week at this point when there's a variety of possibilities. And let's be right, whatever the board come out and say, there will be enough fans whingeing about it.

 

[The Fox]

With regards to the 4 potential signings I therein lies the problem . Managers tend to have a system , sometimes that's accommodating players we have and sometimes it's making acquisitions to fill any gaps in the system.
Problem is most of us left the matches last season not knowing what system we were playing.. it's seamed a bit scattergun , give it to Hamer , lump it towards Moore, hang on to a lead..
Signing players without a clear vision of what your trying to achieve and you get Man utd .

Its not a case of missing out on available players its identifying what we need .

If we are to change manager I'm hoping the recruitment will be more strategic than it has been .

 

[Blade56]

….its not so much annoyance at Wilder decision, it’s more frustration we are <8 weeks from KO and club ‘appears’ to be rudderless. That needs sorting for all stakeholders.

I don't think anyone is calling for daily updates. But all this speculation isn't good for the club. A single statement could put it all to bed.

 

[Th!stledo]

If Wilder is to continue after this long pregnant pause, it would not bode well for the club.
It would portray the owners as indecisive and not fully committed to his leadership.
This would effect Wilder's credibility with our current players and recruitment of future players.
A new manager would show the owners in a more positive light and offer more stability.
The current and future players would feel more comfortable and more likely to commit to the club,
knowing who they are working under for the foreseeable future.
UTB!!!

But what if they haven't decided?

 

[idleurchin]

I read that as the owners could just come out and make a decision.

Fair enough.

My view is that if he was staying, they would have said so by now. I can't think of one good reason why they'd let this drag on, if that were the case.

I may also be wrong. Time will tell.

 

[idleurchin]

Ignore. Duplicated post by accident

Like Sky Sports News it’s the same people saying the same thing throughout the day. Only with more made up stuff.

 

[HarryHaslam]

I’d say it’s more of who we have approached not having decided, whoever they are talking too has not accepted the contract so far which is why we are in limbo it seems. Whoever it may be will only have a few more days at the most to agree to the deal before they say fair enough we stick with Wilder. Just my opinion.

Whoever is manager of the club on Friday will be for the first game.

If Wilder is still manager on Friday and happens to be replaced still, these lot have got no idea.

'Appears' doing plenty of heavy lifting at this point imho

Not asking for daily updates, in more than a few cases, people asking daily for an update. I'm not sure without knowing everything that's happening behind the scenes if a single statement would remotely do that.

I don’t think it’s causing any harm to the club. There are a few impatient people jumping up & down moaning a bit. That’s it.

We have so many people who know how a business should be run yet espouse an opinion based on the Club on no actual information whatsoever.

Aunt has cock dilemma……

Aunt has cock dilemma……

Fair.

I mean I do think whatever happens ends up being done this week. If some of the talk about it being a matter of agreeing payouts etc are correct then it should be imminent really.

 

[The Fox]

Perhaps the club want to act respectfully ( face to face ) , properly and legally rather than at behest of supporters and the press.
Just a thought.

[Blade58]

Danny Hall appeared to suggest that a decision has been made, on twitter. I can only assume the delay in any announcement is to perhaps line up the successor to Wilder, so it can be announced at the same time. Just a guess though, the last part of that.

If you read Cappy’s post Wilder decision is made. He’s gone. Compensation negotiation holding things up. Replacement sorted

It’s in the Current ITK League Table thread. Post 146
