I feel that the club is in a bit of an emergency mode at the minute, I felt it was time for Wilder to move on when he did, he was acting badly and became embrassing. But that was last season and right now we need to think a bit shorter term and get quickly out of this incredible mess we have found ourselves in. I can see Wilder making an immediate impact and that is what we need.
If we got another manager in, would it be reasonable to give them a few games to change things around ? Suddenly we could be adrift, albeit very early in the season., then a wait until the next transfer window to fill the gaps we have.
The club needs a long term plan, but now is not the right time for that, we cannot even comprehend that we have a chance of going down, it would set the club back years.
Short term: Need to get out of this mess we find ourselves in. We need to create chances and score goals. We need to get Hamer firing, Cooper back to his best, Campbell looking at his best again - and quickly.
Medium Term: We need to fix the mess that was this ludicrous AI policy, get a proper system back in place for recruitment and have a better plan for moving forward.
Long term: We will need to move on from Wilder, but this time it needs to be at the right time, under the right circumstances and with a proper plan for the future with a manager who has calibre and direction fit for the club and not a plan that appears to have been written on the back of a fag packet.
For me personally, Wilder now on the basis that he won't need to settle in and 'get to know the club'. I liked the idea of the report that was knocking around about Wilder being a Sporting Director, we need that really bad - even if it is not Wilder - we need somebody who understands and speaks fluent football to put some sensibility back into the seemingly crazy scenario we find ourselves in.
