Why we should give Chris/Alan a chance

I have accepted and moved on by not renewing my season ticket.
The thought of slow boring backwards and sideways passing, wrapped up with baffling team selections and substitutions, with someone who never takes any blame but will gladly slap the badge when we win just doesn't appeal to me.
I wouldn't also be 100% sure he will be here next season when they see how much season ticket sales are down.

Well done mate for giving someone else a chance to go. I'm hoping you're the guy that sits behind me that constantly shouts throughout the game and clearly knows fuck all about football. Only kidding.

Gladly doing my bit, hope whoever gets my seat is not expecting too much.
Not me sat behind you i haven't shouted at a football match for two seasons, now if you had said snoring then that could be me.
Anyway you enjoy watching Shackleton if you are lucky you might get too see him in a couple of games at least. 😆

I presume he is including Wilders promotions with other clubs as well, which to be fair shows he hasn't got a bad record.

He’s had 3 promotions in the EFL in total. He also took Oxford out of the Conference. That’s during a 26 year managerial career. He’s certainly no Neil Warnock.
 
His tactics and team selection have been baffling for the last few months.I would get rid now,we need a complete overhaul of the squad with some new tactics. I will get my tin hat on.
 
It's funny, Wilder is very much a spent force, yet he'd have got us more than the measly 83 points required for 2nd this season if he'd not been sacked

I feel it's similar going into next season, but our ceiling is quite a bit lower

He'll give us a competitive squad and get us in the top 10

Anybody's guess if he lasts the season or not

I think I'd be tempted to keep CW but pension off Knilly.
Replace with a younger coach with new ideas

I'll second that, change the backroom staff as well, especially after the fitness levels have been shocking this season, it's really hampered our play after the 60 minute mark, although recently we've only woke up in the second half when the other team have scored,.....so that's a contradictory post....:)

Imagine not getting a season ticket because Chris Wilder is manager. Deary me

Just cannot see the point of getting one, when I have been bored out of my mind most of the time this season.
If you enjoy that kind of football then pay your £500 it's a free country and enjoy.

Season ticket sales will definitely be down. Last year many thought they were buying a ticket to watch PL games

Devil's advocate.

- We have a squad with transfer fees/ value / wages far above the league average. Most teams in this league (even ones in and around the playoffs) would love to have the likes of Hamer, O'Hare, and Tanganga. For anyone saying "yeah but Tanganga is crap", Moore is leading the line at a play-off chasing team, Norrington-Davies is above us in the table and Brewster is very close to scoring more for Derby than he did his entire Blades career. When everyone looks better out of a Blades shirt, the problem is us.

- Fair enough, didn't have the summer to pick the transfers. Neither did Kim Hellberg or Phil Clement. They got on with it and adapted to the players they had available.

- The league average for games lost from winning positions is 2.6. Ours is 7. Good managers adapt to keep leads.

- 85% of the games we've fallen behind in, we've lost. Only Wednesday have a worse record, and I think they have a slightly better excuse. Good managers adapt to get back into games.

- Unable or unwilling to sort out the fitness issue.

- Unable or unwilling to sort out the discipline issue (nice to see we've swapped mass brawls for red cards this season though, it's cheaper).

- Spent £10 MILLION on Tom Cannon. That shouldn't get you fired. That should get you fired into the sun. For context, Norwich rebuilt half their squad smartly with £10m, bringing in Toure, Makama, Maghoma and Ahmed. Give Wilder £10m again and it's probably going on Joe Gelhardt.


Used to be a great manager in 2020, but whatever he had - it isn't there any more. Time to move on.

Halle-bloody-Lujah!! Nearly every player we bring in goes backwards in skill, fitness and endeavour.
We are in trouble now with management that don't have any forward thinking and scouts that are clearly not fit for purpose and mates of 'Our Chrissy'.
We have become another Stoke, West Brom or Watford and will be hovering around mid-table in the Championship for the next 5 years or so.
Disgraceful considering the riches we have had from the Premiership but typical considering the middling club we will always be.
Never mind, he is after all, one of our own.
 



Just seen that Bristol City want Stevie G to take over from Woy as manager.

Sorry but if they can afford him then we should be all over this.

Get Wilder OUT NOW.

Swapping and changing managers all the time is ludicrous - just look at all the many clubs that have done it and where they are now. Okay we didn't make the playoffs (always unrealistic) but if we had flirted with relegation all season and just avoided the drop would there have been more praise? We have to give an experienced manager with multiple promotions a chance to rebuild and go again.

Chris has been saying for the last six matches he knows what needs changing, he has a plan. He knows the players aren't good enough. All the talk about he is rubbish at transfers is just picking the duds every manager has them, he has also picked some real gems. With little budget I trust Chris and Alan to get us at least a playoff place next season.

If I kept saying to my boss for six weeks, ‘I know what needs changing and I have a plan’ but then my performance at work didn’t get any better (and actually got worse during those six weeks), then at what point would my boss start to question if I did, in fact, know what needed changing…
 
To my mind our number 1 problem is that our owners don’t have much of a clue about how to run an English football club. When were they last seen at a match? Do we even know if they watch on TV?
My suggestion would be that they get serious advice from folk who DO know about football and follow their recommendation about appointing a DoF. Someone like Roy Hodgson - to help with identifying potential DoFs.
Just a suggestion. Happy to hear other’s views.

Really??!! I'm guessing you still want 'One of our own' in charge for next season then??

Get ready for Wilder signing a load of shit then blaming everyone but himself when we're in another relegation scrap next year.
