Is Wilder still a legend in your eyes?

[Sean Thornton]

Another poll.

Wilder took a club from bottom of league 1 to 6th place in the Premier league genuinely battling for a champions league spot using many of the lower league players.

That feat is remarkable and I would say impossible ….its probably the best feat in English football since Brian Clough
took Nottingham Forest from div 2 to winning div 1….then winning the European Cup (that rise also seems impossible).

So just based on those 4 years Wilder became a legend
And if people have sincerity then once a legend always a legend.

However that doesn’t mean he can’t be criticised and/ or sacked
But like Warnock and Bassett (and even Hecky), he’ll always be welcome back at the club.
Wilder gave me some of my best times supporting United in 50 years….so I’ll always be grateful.

A comparison with Clough? Really? Jesus.

His early exploits give him that status. Although he’s not the same Wilder these days his failures don’t detract from those glory days. For me anyway.

But it’s no reason to keep him on imo.

Not been the best season, but is he still a ledge for what he did back in his first spell?

Or is this season and his "Mardiola" reputation sullying things?

I'm obviously pro-Wilder and think we would have made the playoffs if we stuck with him and not appointed Selles. But that isn't the most popular tek on here now.

He will always be a legend in my eyes.

Yes
