People keep saying ‘I see people talking about Wilder leaving but there’s no viable alternative’ - I’ve got one. Eddie Howe.
For some reason some of our fans scoff at him? Eh? What’s not to like apart from him being southern?
Pros:
Cons:
Shouts for Big Sam, Curbishley, Redknapp, Warnock, whoever else should be laughed at rightfully.
But if we need a new manager from these shores, I don’t see a better option than South Coast Eddie.
This isn’t a Wilder out post before I get called reactionary, a pig, a doom merchant, a troll, whatever else. But when you lose 15 league games out of 16, score 1 open play goal in that time, have scored 2 goals in the calendar year 3 times, have a manager making very very bizarre decisions (that lineup yesterday ffs), and are playing football that Morecambe would turn their nose up at - I think you’re entitled to start thinking of alternatives.
South Coast Eddie, he’s the man. If he can’t do it, no one can.

Pros:
- Plays attacking football, we might score 2 goals in a game and maybe more than 1 from open play every 12 games.
- Likes players with pace, so we might see some counter attacks that don’t take the same time it takes to watch the Star Wars collection in full
- Has plenty of PL experience, more than our club has got actually
- Has promotion experience, shows he knows how to spend money in the leagues below in order to get over the line
- Comes across as a likeable bloke who the players would get along with
- Has had 2 of our most expensive players already so will know ho
Cons:
- Southern
- Failed at Burnley in only Northern job 7 years ago or something
- Has a relegation on his CV (although that was double points at least, unlike what we’ll achieve)
- Defensively Bournemouth were poor, so we might be as bad as we are now
- Is apparently waiting for Celtic or something
- Looks like he might burst into tears at any minute
