As people are calling for DW's head lets have an honest poll of if we are actually behind him or not

I am firmly in the no camp
 



It's like one of Bigfoots old threads isn't it???:D
 
to even discuss it is silly

weve lost a couple of games , lets sack him

then we get jose mourinho , but he loses a couple we sack him

then pep guardila , and we lose a couple so we sack him

who do we get then
 
Got him on ignore.

Who's calling for his head?

We're calling for a keeper
 
How ridiculous, did 4 managers last season not teach us anything? I think the current poll results tell the story you need to know.

And who exactly is calling for his head? I've not seen or heard anyone doing it!

Someone started a thread WILSON OUT. Once the big earning wastes of space leave then we may be able to assemble a team of footballers
 



Shouldn't really be askin the question. If we were 16/18th then maybe, but we are still in a far better position than I thought we would be.

The players futures are the thing that should be called into question.
 
Most people were tipping upper mid table before the season as I seem to recall. At the moment we're surpassing this, although the great run at the start of the season did could people's judgement a bit and raise expectations to what is probably an unrealistic level.

I'm quite happy with where we are and can actually see where Wilson's trying to take us. Upwards, and trying to do it by playing passing football when it suits and occasionally mixing it up if required. Let him do it.
 
i can see a bit of movement in the jan window
 
He saw Chedless Chicken's "touch of a rapist" control led to the Bradford equaliser on Tuesday night and hauled the £3m man off in favour of a development player.
He can see the same as us but can do eff all about it while the money is being sucked out of the club as a result of ludicrous contracts given to players who have not been fulfilling their part of the bargain.
 
I'm in the go brigade. I have never rated Wilson as a manager. I don't care about any vague 'successes' he has had, they count for nowt fancy to be honest. We need to be equipping for the Premiership or nothing at all - Wilson has shown he doesn't have the capability to take clubs that far or maintain them at that level. What if we were to be promoted? What then? We do actually have the capability on the field to be further than where we are and to me, there's still no spark to our play and definately no ability to kill games off - totally Wilson's fault in my opinion. We can 'give him more time' as much as we want, but United are never going to improve with someone who fails to prioritise fitness, has no tactical nous regarding gameplay and with the eway we are playing,won't attract anyone come January.

McCabe ... and the board ... yes they own the club. But the club is at a crisis crossroads at the moment. We cannot afford to languish in this division, or forver be the Bristol Rovers of the modern era. We cannot afford to allow Sheffield fucking Wednesday to either go up automatically or defeat us in the playoffs. Automatic promotion is now disappearing over the horizon and the playoffs a futile struggle. Income isn't going to just fall off the money tree and McCabe happy to let the club die slowly, as long as he can bleed the life out of us all (because it is us who keep it going by gates, merchandise et al) as long as he can install a lifeless puppet, a touchline muppet, a wantaway, a plank or a pisshead and expunge the memories of when we were worth a shout. I don't see Wilson moving anywhere in a hurry, so we might as well get used to shit performances such as what we've witnessed against Bradford (because on paper, we should have pissed all over them) and a slide in and out of the playoffs ... hopefully out, because every time we get in them, we get our valiant hearts broken.

ps. this has nothing to do with Wilson's pig connections, by the way. I just don't see us doing anything with him.
 
I can't believe anyone is asking for a change of manager. I'll hazard a guess that the majority of those who are, don't see much of us and don't realise just what a crock of shite that was relegated last year. It's time the "our players should piss this league" notion was crushed. Our players aren't very good, simple. It's the same mistake that's made with England where many confuse big numbers with big quality.

I thought we were capable of a double relegation. A good start began to fool us. When reality sets back in, we must realise that we need to give someone time. At the end of this season we lose the disaster that is Evans, plus a few other piss takers. At the end of the year after, we can clear the decks. Wilson's track record is average. But sereriously, what better is anyone expecting? Have we learned nothing? Without resource, all you can do is give a manager time.

5 managers is just over a year would propell us to joke status.

Edit - it seems 98% don't want a change, which is probably as good as it will ever get. We haven't lost the plot then.
 
You're right alco - I do agree with you. But remaining in League Division Three, allowing our balloon to slowly deflate at the expense of a bloke brought in to ostensibly turn us round after a season of disaster is equally embarassing. Especially is the pigs are starting to get their wheels rolling. Teams in thos division were possibly flinching when we were relegated and expecting a thrapping when they met us. But when Leyton Orient, Stevenage, Bradford City, Wycombe Wanderers, Exeter City ... teams we used to look at with binoculars ... get points off us and make us look as good as if not worse than them then I am afraid I'll take the 'five managers' lampooning over the appointment of a manger who fires up players who have played in the Premier League recently, one who stads on the touchline and provides active guidance, one who shuts out the opposition effectively, one who can get the best from our youngsters and counter their proneness to gaffes abd errors and one who even if we win by a shit goal in the 90th minute, makes sure that every red and white wearing die-hard has his faith restored. You're right, I don't see a lot of games ... all I see are the fuck ups that lead to thrown away points (and boy, have there been some of those recently?) and performances such as Tuesdays which show that he hasn't a fucking clue.

But you're making the suggestion that these things (the things that have been happening under 5 managers) will stop at the 6th. Very unlikely, isn't it? The common factor is actually the short tenure of managers, and the players. And let's imagine the quality of manager we'd then attract anyway. Let's give one man time to work at it (he's not daft, at least) and at the very least, soak up the time that will bring about what is undoubtedly needed - clearing out 2/3rd of the current playing staff.

I have never rated Wilson as a manager!
Nothing that has happened this season has made me change my mind
He cannot motivate players, they make the same mistakes week in week out and he can't change a thing!
Apparantly, he was spitting blood this week yet he comes out mealy mouthed and says virtually nothing!
Wilson is a poor manager, look at his track record yet we are in such a state we can't attract any better!
He will not get better with time, he is extremely limited and does not inspire any confidence whatsoever!
Change the manager? The whole bloody lot requires changing from the owner, chairman, manager, players down to the ball boys!!!
McCabe has taken us to this point - I see no immediate return, no hope no chance!
United deserve Wilson and Wilson deserves United
 
The common factor is actually the short tenure of managers UTB

Surely the common factor is the quality of the managers - lower league scufflers with some limited 'success'. I haven't bothered voting because we've declined so much in such a short space of time, that I can't see any immediate hope whoever was in charge.

We've got to stop blaming ourselves - the supporters - as this decline has been overseen by McCabe. If anyone wants to raise the question about Wilson, it's not being 'knee jerk', it's McCabe who is guilty of that by employing a series of crap managers whose CVs should ensure unemployment in football, never mind six-figure salaries.

And can you see us attracting a top manager? A skint third divison club with a bunch of average players impossible to move because of contract size. The same problem we've had since Robson took over, and not tackled as we handed out further contracts with the reversed logic that paying £15,000 per week was a 50% saving on £30K.

Would we quite as bothered about only being 5th if the pigs were 14th..?

Good point, but the fear of most Blades, including myself, is that most evidence (current form, momentum, results against better teams, the loss of the loanees, the form of the keeper and the inability to replace) says we wont be finishing anywhere near 5th.
