Even if he stays

[maidmarion]

You'll no doubt be shocked to hear that I can be objectionable after a few drinks but I'm not managing a football club supported by half of one of Britain's biggest cities.

This is the major issue with him, outside of football. He acts like a random fan when he's the guy getting paid millions every year to run a club.

Yes and I get that but way before he was a football manager he was a Sheffield United fan. Not an angelic one either if my dad was to be believed. So on a professional level he can really let himself down. Especially when he drinks with his ‘mates’ as they all think they’re still 25 and cool.

 

[robbiez666]

What a shocker. Football manager manages the team he played for in the city he grew up and has friends still that he’s had for years…

What do you expect him to do? Not go to his local or around the city he has lots of friends in.

To be a professional? To not be a pathetic cunt who goes out on the piss singing pathetic songs about another team's manager?

Or does interviews about 'lefties' or kicks off about someone eating a sandwich.

While, at the same time, refuses to take any responsibility for anything.

How is this hard? How do you expect this club to become established in the top slight when the person in charge thinks he's manging a pub team?

 

[Nick Jansky]

Wilder is one of the best we’ve had isn’t he.

Yes, but is the only one who has brought embarrassment to the club.

 

[robbiez666]

Wilder is one of the best we’ve had isn’t he.

Best what?

Managers? Yes

Human beings managing a football club that wants to be amongst the best in the country, no.

What is the matter with you that you feel so much anger and hatred towards a football manager? Let alone our manager who's objectively achieved brilliant things with us.

He’s professional in his job.

It’s somewhat ironic that you’ve started a thread about him calling him a cunt.

I appreciate that you and some others don’t like him personally and it sounds like yourself and others have also had negative experiences with him as well as seeing things on social media, not sure if you were there during those situations.

However, calling him a cunt on a football forum doesn’t particularly show yourself in a positive light either. That’s ok though. You’re a fan on a football forum.

Yes manager.

You seem to have misread by first post. Difference between a manager and a person. It's 2025 and a manager needs to be, publicly, better than a pub hooligan.

 

[robbiez666]

He’s professional in his job.

is this a joke? He's one of the least professional managers I can think of.

 

[SwissBlade]

Yes, but is the only one who has brought embarrassment to the club.

In your opinion. I don’t see the embarrassment he’s brought to the club, if I’m honest, but as I said I think it’s subjective and that’s fine.

 

[SwissBlade]

is this a joke? He's one of the least professional managers I can think of.

No. Very serious.

 

[CPB]

I don't know him. Based on what I do, we wouldn't be friends but it's a hell of a jump from there to Cunt

Interestingly enough. Of the people I know who have met him or know him. Of which some are owls fans.

They've all said he's a decent guy.

The owls fans aren't a fan of when he's in full football mode and as a blade. But he's not like that away from football as such.

 

[Bl4desutd]

I think it's fucked now.

I don't know one Blade, in person, who has any respect for him as a person. Most have appreciation of how well he did in terms of results this season. Everyone things he's a cnut.

If he stays now, with all the stuff going round, I can't imagine it will end in anything other than a really bad situation.

What the fuck…..speak for yourself pal…I think it’s you that’s in the minority

No. Very serious.

You clearly aren't.

Name other professional football managers who go to the pub after a game and sing drunken abusive songs about the opposition manager?

That's not professional. That's pathetic.

 

[Nick Jansky]

However, calling him a cunt on a football forum doesn’t particularly show yourself in a positive light either.

Surely, according to you, that’s subjective?

 

[CarlMcBlade]

I know we're now in a world where everyone has to have an extreme view on every subject, but this feels a teeny bit over the top.

• No Blade has any respect for Chris Wilder
• Chris Wilder is a major cnut
• This will end in a really bad situation
• It's fucked.

Tad dramatic, that.

Isn’t it just, back in the day we made do with merely liking and disliking someone or something…Now it’s love em or hate em.

 

[SwissBlade]

Surely, according to you, that’s subjective?

The point was being made by the op that wilder is a cunt. Yet the op on his moral high ground doesn’t hold the same standards for himself

Being a cunt in itself is subjective, generally, yes

 

[SwissBlade]

You clearly aren't.

I did just say that i was, serious. Not sure why you’re so angry with me.

I don’t need to name another or care.

You’re right it’s certainly pathetic. But have a good evening and good luck in your quest.

 

[Nick Jansky]

So they both are or neither of them are.

 

[SwissBlade]

I’ve lost track. My point was about the irony of calling the manager a cunt, not that the op himself was… but I’ll leave it at that, this is too weird for a sober Sunday evening.

 

[Tezza1889]

You clearly aren't.

That's not professional. That's pathetic.

Not forgetting trying to fight the opposition players in the tunnel.

I can't be as colourful with the words, but I do think it's time for him, but I just mean because he's boring and negative now, old hat you could say, but embarrassing to boot..

 

[steve26272]

If there is a social responsibility question in the coaching badges exam

Your the manager of a top of the table club in one of the most high profile leagues in the world
You beat your rivals 1-0, to celebrate do you?

A) invite friends round to your house, have a few drinks in your bar/games room

B) get pissed, stand on a table in a public house singing songs about a fellow professional manager, with blissful disregard for social media and how this could reflect on your club?




That said, calling him a cunt is harsh, he’s a blade and has done some amazing things for us, bit of a bellend is where I’d check out

 

[Carlton Blade]

I think he likely is. I played football and cricket with loads of blokes I woukd never class as friends, but coukd have a beer with after a match

I'm a cunt. Never denied it.

However, I'm not the public face of a multi-million pound sports team with a public profile across the world. Getting paid millions for doing so.

I'm just a cunt and a nonentity who doesn't get paid enough to buy a house.

Because a football manager isn't paid just to manage a football team. They're the public face of a football team.

 

[Slugger]

Not forgetting trying to fight the opposition players in the tunnel.

"Not forgetting trying to fight the opposition players in the tunnel."

What match was that?

 

[robbiez666]

Look, ignoring my colourful language in the original post and my personal opinions of him (and the opinions of those Blades I know in person).

Does anyone think after this last few days of speculation that there's a long-term future at the club for him?

When it's clear that at least a minority of fans are unimpressed with his behaviour.

Isn't it just a recipe for disaster and likely to go horribly wrong if he has a bad patch?

I'd also like to state that this is clearly not all his fault. The owners have let this speculation continue without comment.

I wasn’t making it about you, never met you, wouldn’t know. I disagree with your opinion on Wilder, but I’ll leave it at that.

Thanks for providing some real weirdness this evening.
