My view is that United should back Wilder with a 10 year contract ( ridiculed on here and no support about 9 months ago).
Look at the situation Blades. Without loads of cash he's the best in 'the world' within our wilderest dreams! He has performed a minor miracle these past 18 months.
With cash? I'd go with him 100%. Why? Because he's got common sense, he knows life. He knows the game. Even with cash he'll buy characters, you know the Jagielkas not the Lescotts or the Woodgates.
Wilder has the experience of over 800 games. He has a very good manager as his Assistant. He's a Blade through and through but he is not for one minute blinded by Bladeyness. He is also ambitious and is not a fool,
His ability as a manager will not be defined by a mediocre spell as a 'safe pair of hands' in S2, keeping the natives happy with mid-table Championship football. I reckon he has a sense of destiny and confidence having served his apprenticeship at other clubs.
United have to show him they believe in him. The ownership tangle demonstrates how quickly football stability can change. The eventual owners, whoever they are, have to back the man and so do our fans.
We have seen so much nonsense on here this past few weeks, nonsense that the manager will be clocking and nonsense that affects him and the players. Things said by majorities on fans' forums do not go unnoticed. Support in bad times can mean so much to a manager and a player when other opportunities beckon.
Fans need to understand what they wish for and believe me Wilder is as good as it gets for us, no doubt whatsoever. He is our only chance and if he fails in due course so be it, let's go with him.
The alternatives are the likes of Robson, Blackwell, Speed, Adams, Wear, Clough, Adkins et al.
Or if we somehow get serious financial backing we'll get somebody like Carvalhio or the new bloke over there, can't remember his name or that of their new Chief Exec from Charlton. Be careful what you wish for Blades.
Big cash does not buy success. Big transfer fees do not guarantee you any better than Sharp/Clarke/ Donaldson. I'd love to see who Wilder signs if he ever gets say £5m on a player. I think a lot on here would be very surprised who he went for.
Let's support the manager. Let's be patient and grow with him and the club. For a club like ours it's the only way to get right up there. Wilder could just possibly be a Brian Clough, a Bill Shankly and even an Arsene Wenger who " turned down the world'" to stay with the Arsenal fans. OK he has lost his way but we may just have something like his first 10 years to look forward to right now. Be careful what you post and what you wish for fellow Blades. Wilder is THE MAN for at least a decade.
