Wilder can't even deliver basic football. Get the fucker out.

[Sir Nick Montgomery]

There’s this idea that we’re inconsistent but I disagree.
We consistently give the ball away cheaply.
We consistently are too slow to close people down on the edge of the box.
We consistently look devoid of ideas.
We consistently leave players unmarked in the box.
We consistently only play well for about half an hour per game.
We consistently only have 30 something percent possession.
The captain is consistently allover the place like a headless chicken.
The pisshead manager is consistently churning out the same pathetic excuses, blaming everything but himself and his cringeworthy, sycophantic followers consistently lap it up.

We’re the most consistent team in the league

4 defeats in the last 5 games. If we lose Saturday it HAS to be the final nail in the Wilder coffin

 

[Carlton Blade]

There have been signs of improved attacking intent the last 2 matches. But they were against poor teams. Saturday will be a much bigger test.

The points totals ofthe last 2 seasons have been built on dominating the worst teams. Points have already been dropped against Cardiff, Portsmouth.

 

[Blade59]

Ref was poor and to a degree it is a fair point.

But this is the same club that complained about being a testing ground for young inexperienced referees in recent times!

Yes this was after the Southampton game last year. He was awful as was Langford last night but Chris doesn't half contradict himself at times in his interviews.

 

[Champagneblade]

I think Dave Challinor is already nailed on to take the Pigs job.

I think the real risk is that there is no guarantee that making a change now would improve things for the better

I think under CW we won’t go down this season, we will pick up enough points at home and pick up a few away and that will be sufficient to mean we stay in the Championship.

I also feel strongly that Uniteds best bet would be letting him keep up this season and have the honest conversation with him that we are looking to make a change at the end of the season and keeping him onside until then and trying to ensure an orderly transition of power to the new manager

I get where you’re coming from though to me that could potentially be too late and really does expose our lack of structure.

If there is to be a new person then they need time to plan for the summer. Arriving at the onset of the summer, whilst that feels like a clean time, will already seem too late for a club with much to do around contracts and seemingly limited finances when it comes to hiring players.

 

[unitedbhoy]

I actually thought we were ok last night, but don’t forget we were playing one of the worst teams in the league.

We were slow and unfit last season. Any idiot could see it.

So what did we do in the summer? Did we look towards young athletic players? Nahhh, we bring in old, slow and unfit players. “Culture Carriers” Unbelievable!!

Honestly the recruitment that Wilder has done, is a disgrace.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

I see that The Star are releasing a string of defection articles. Almost like there wasn't a defeat last night just a bad ref.

 

[RandomBlade]

Same. Because I care about my club and don't accept obvious shit decisions week in year out.
You keep on clapping and watch the pigs overtake us, whilst you bury your head and ram your fingers in your ears.
You bloody pudding.

No you dont care.

 

[RandomBlade]

I see that The Star are releasing a string of defection articles. Almost like there wasn't a defeat last night just a bad ref.

Was the ref not bad then? Would we have come away with point or points had 11 men been on the pitch? 3 out of his 4 last reds have been Blades players. Not smell a bit?

 

[RandomBlade]

The ref with his ridiculous red card has handed Wilder a get out of jail card.

How ?

 

[RandomBlade]

I'm convinced the players have zonal positioning drilled in to them - they all stand where they are told to, no marking is allowed, they must be stood in their spot and then react slowly to the player stood in yards of space.

I'd love to know how many goals we've conceded from unmarked and unchallenged players, especially around the edge of the box. Yes the first was a worldie but at the same time if you give a professional footballer that much time and space then they should be able to drop it in the far corner. We do it time and time again.

Well you nearly admitted it was a worldy, as it was, then revererted to the dropped it in the corner. Let it go mate.

 

[RandomBlade]

I’m just sick and tired of being ridiculed for the way we play. I could understand it if we’re sneaking wins, but it’s real mixed bag. There seems to be a universal acceptance that we are a shit team and an easy 3 points. This is an alien concept to all Blades, whatever the result we always give teams a game…That’s not the real SUFC out there and it fucking hurts.

Who's ridiculing you?

 

[54yrblade]

Unless we get some good beatings, and we do just enough, scraping points to stay off the bottom three, I honestly believe that will be enough for the board to keep him to season's end.

The club is so like him now. Ageing, tired, half paced, boringly repetitive, directionless and all rather desperate.

We're treading water while most of the Championship sail off into the distance leaving us further behind every week.

A bigger difference to CW1 is impossible to imagine.

He's willingly ruining his legacy because his ego just can't let go and those in charge don't know where to turn next. He's very fortunate we don't have smarter football people at the top

It's pitiful at this stage.

 

[coolasanidiot]

Got to give the fans something to shout about his brand of football is enough to send anyone to sleep

No it wasn’t last night it was gripping - claw back from 2 down. Donovan and Campbell come on and for once it seemed liked ‘wow we are going for it’. At that point I was dreaming of a goal but was desperate to hold for a draw.
My son text with 8 minutes to go and said’ a goal against us in last minute is going to hurt!’
And of course it did - but I wasn’t sleepy.
OK you despise Wilder but don’t talk bollox.

On and on and on we go saying this shite not even in a different way just the same again and again.

 

[RandomBlade]

Think you were on another channel
First 15 minutes both sides looked non league
They then pinned us back we then had a good 10/15 minutes spell and last quarter looked fragile and they camped in our half pre red card and beyond

Non league? You ever actually watched non league?

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Ref was bad yeah. But that wasn't the only thing that happened. You can't sweep half the game under the carpet due to a red. Nor poor tactical decisions throughout.

First 25 we were by far the better team. Player gets sent off and the worst possible player (the player that’s marking their best player). They score a wonder goal from a crap clearance. We then fight and fight and get to level. We then change tired like for like players so don’t go defensive which everyone despises. Sorry Pep you are talking twaddle.

What were the poor tactical decisions, in your opinion obviously?

Obviously, this forum is purely about opinions.

Adopting 3 at the back for the start of the second half with Chong at RWB - strange move, they targeted it and got their second.

Our attacking play was also so so predictable. When plan A (give the ball to Chong) didn't work (as it didn't even when we were on top), the opposition adapt and we aren't smart enough to respond.

Those were (yes in my opinion) glaring tactical hindrances last night.

You're really basing everyone on a 'better than usual first 25 mins' - a period in which the keeper made 1 real save, we didn't score, and then fell completely flat and conceded. Yes it was a wonder goal but as is typical in wide areas we didn't attempt to close down their player.

So having Chaudary sent off who else goes to RWB? Wilder said we changed shape deliberately. We pulled back a a 2 nil deficite with 10 men , which would indicate the plan kind of worked.
Last 10 mins out of gas and they are always with a man over.

We pulled the 2 goals back when he realised we were going to get overrun (conceding 3 or 4) and reverted back to a back 4.

Tanganga at right back was the easiest move. Just happened too late.

In simple terms - I thought 11v11 we were superior. Dropping to 10 I really feared the worse, but they battled fantastic and nearly got what would have been a memorable draw. We are shit lots of times but last night was a good go which should be commended not slagged off.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

I thought we were decent/better for 20 mins, then they got to grips with us and negated our threat easily. We didn't have an answer or a way of adapting.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Feels like we now have the Boro and Watford version of Wilder and not the original SUFC one.

He's a legend, great bloke, one of the very best we've had. But feels like time to draw a line under it now.

Bring someone in who will develop a squad based with youth, energy, creativity. I want to see the Ones and Donovan's given an environment to thrive.

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

Our squad stinks, it is painfully slow, aging and lacking creativity. I'm more convinced now that Wilder is our best bet while the ownership mess is sorted.

I don’t follow your logic, he’s the cretin that signed these slow, aging players.

 

[RandomBlade]

Watched a different game to me. So was chong at RWB or Tanganga at RB (who is shocking in there btw) ??

 

[RandomBlade]

Yes this was after the Southampton game last year. He was awful as was Langford last night but Chris doesn't half contradict himself at times in his interviews.

Tend to agree with that, but think he wants to say too much but can't, then ends up biting his lip and tongue.

You let yourself down as soon as you said we are going for it by bringing Campbell on

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

At the start of the second half we went 3 at the back, Chong at RWB. We get hammered and conceded. We then went to a back four.
