Could this set us back years

If I was a gambling man and if presented with the options of either setting us back years or bouncing back, I'd be lumping on setting us back years.
 
It will be 50 years next month since my first match at BDBL. I have never felt so connected as in the last 5.

It will take somebody very special to avoid the next chapter being a terrible anticlimax. I had hoped that he would just take a couple of months off - leave Knilly to play with funny formations - and come back with all guns blazing.

I am gutted.
 
Owner sacks outspoken Premier League promotion winning manager who is also a Blade.

Owner then buys foreign clubs.

I've seen this happen before. Can someone remind where we ended up for 6 years some time after that?
 
This is could set us back years
Potentially yes.

I could see a few leaving especially the top players. Berge Egan JOC etc. Lundstrum will be off.

This leaves us with the ageing players like McGoldrick Norwood etc. It’s quite honestly a nightmare I believe.
 
14 points and 16 goals from 28 matches is pathetic. It just feels like the right time to move on, managers don’t generally recover from such a prolonged poor run.

It’s sad the way it has ended but I think it’s best for us and Wilder.

It leaves us with a heart ripped out
 



How do you measure how many years it will set us back?
Well assuming you know how our wage structure is not competitive, and that you're not a bad trenchman or a bedwetter or a knee-jerk artist, then you can pluck a figure from anywhere and it'll be correct. That's called being a true Blade.

Being a true Blade is defiantly stating your desire to continue supporting us after the nth defeat, while non-Blade bandwagon jumpers espouse fair-weather flouncery. But, here's the catch; when a manager wants to leave, you have to ditch everything you learned from the top Blade handbook, proceeding to state your outrage and your intention to switch your support to Sheffield FC instead.
 
Sorry, and have been drinking, but FFS, get some perspective. Nobody has died, the manager has left (possibly). I love football, but this is farcical.
We've been in a pandemic for a year, about 125,000 people have died, but let's all top ourselves because a football manager MAY have left.
Yeah, we had a good time for 4 years, but good times never last forever.
There'll be other good times, at whatever level.
Just stop all the fucking weeping and wailing and like I said, get some sort of fucking perspective and grow a pair.
I expect pelters for this, bring it on.
Any reference to me being a Pig will be treated with the disdain it deserves.
 
How do you measure how many years it will set us back?

Not guaranteed admittedly but if you take last time we was relegated from the Premiership and we lost our manager its a worrying time.
The way I see it Wilder has made mistakes some big but he knows the players and the players know him and our playing system.
You get a new manager in we basically start again, new playing system they'll like some of the current squad and won't like others, do we have the money to enable the new manager to bring the players he wants in.
You only have to look at Norwich to see have keeping the manager and making a few tweaks can pay dividends.
If Wilder does leave i think we the fans deserve an honest explanation as to the reasons why. I would say about 85% are behind Wilder certainly on here anyway that is a big chunk of our fan base that is going to be pissed off.
The worrying thing about the Prince for me is the couple of warning signs, no news on the new training ground, the fact we didn't sign anyone in January, we basically just chucked the towel in.
Whatever happens I do think we need an honest explanation as to how the relationship between the board and Wilder has broken down especially given the comments made by Jim about Chris not wanting certain player's who have since done well at other clubs.
Whats Oprah doing these days.
If Wilders does leave i think our chances of an immediate return have drastically diminished especially if they are not going to back the new manager with decent money.
 
For every point madesaying it could set us back years, you could easily argue that if we didn't stop the rot we could have been set back years.

Who knows what the future holds but all we can do is support the team through thick and thin.

Don't bring your common sense here!

Prince Abdullah is going to get us relegated, sell JOC, Egan, Fleck, Didsy, the digital scoreboard, the statue of Dooley and he's going to bulldoze Manfridays & The Railway.

PANIC!!!
