Wilder Post-match interview

The club needs to get away from Kevin Cookson doing the interviews he asks a question and then answers it himself as he’s asking it. It makes the interviews really smarmy and unpalatable. Wilder should be answering tough questions not softball ones.
He just has a go at anyone who asks him tough questions, so no one does.
 

I dont take cunts like you acting up, nobhead. Get personal and expect it back. You start it and I'll end it.
Im scared you must be one of the big boys. Get someone to read this to you.

Dont get personal and you wont get any shit back. Its simple as that.

I agree he does and he has the right too and if I’m honest I’d have rather heard that. If he’s asked tough questions it gives him the opportunity to be defensive, honest or aggressive or respond however he likes but when he’s asked a question that’s already been answered before the sentence is finished you just end up watching two blokes agreeing with each other which doesn’t do anyone any good.
 
I disagree but it's 50/50. Either way, we deserved to lose and what difference would it have made? We're down anyway. 1 or 0 points. To spend 3/4 of a post match interview being mardy about a penalty when he team were dogshit and he was dogshit is laughable. He's turned into the whining manager stereotype he used to mock last season.
Sorry do you mean 50/50 whether a pen or not?
I'm not saying for a minute we deserved a point, but how was it not a penalty?
 
Time gentlemen please...we've all had a few drinks etc etc
 
Yep I think you have a good point its horrible to watch and Wilder will know this.He somehow has to get some kind of tune out of them with so many matches still to play .
privately I think he will be as angry and frustrated as us.
Berating them publically serves no purpose as we are down .we are down and have been realistically since before christmas .
Hopefully we have been planning for next seasons championship since then.
I am sure there is a lot of truth in that.
BUT what is he angry and frustrated at?
The tens of millions he’s wasted on players, the teams he selects, the bench he picks (or doesn’t when he’s feeling mardy), the substitutions he makes, the hoof ball he encourages, the lack of intention to attack ..... OR something else?
 
I think he said it was close in terms of score line he did indicate that they were better team. Not sure what else people expect - I think players are now done and no point saying it to lower morale below rock bottom. Watching body language of players at end it was as though relegation had mathematically been confirmed
It’s just bizarre the fact he laid into the team after the game away at Leicester last season after what was an unbelievable season, yet he’s spent all of this season pussy footing around the fact we are clearly out of our depth in this division with the current squad.
 
That's nothing, he also:


Described Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks as "those troublemakers".

Passionately advocated for the return of fox hunting.

Said, "NHS? I'd privatise the fucking lot tomorrow"

Said the death penalty should be brought back for "nonces and vegetarians."

"Doesn't mind gays as long as they're not all up in your face about it all the time like".

Strongly opposed the renaming of the south stand after Tony Currie, saying he wanted to name it after Margaret Thatcher or maybe Oliver Cromwell.


This calls for internet outrage 😡
No outrage.....Just fatigue
 
Dont know what's worse, wilder not being honest anymore or the guy interviewing him up his ass.
The interviewer being that biased does wilder a disservice as it doesn’t give him an opportunity to try and salvage the mood by being forthright in the interview. Instead what comes across is very patronising as it’s not an interview but rather the interviewer talking down to the fans and telling us what we should understand. That’s not the role of an interviewer in any situation he should pose questions and allow the interviewee to put forth their narrative not control it. I support wilder and understand the limitations he’s currently working with I really wasn’t expecting that interview to rub me up the wrong way but it has.

It’s really not on this case is it? The interviewer works for the club, of course it’s going to be spun in a way that let wilder say what he wants and he’s not going to put on the spot.

my first question would be why were you happy to wait for 65 minutes to have a touch in the opposite box and an attempt on target. Or why the cowardly approach? But I’m not employed by the club.

The thing is the if the point of this interview is the help the managers position which as you point out it should be given it’s done by the club then it’s backfired due to the pally way it’s been done.

I agree. But then I fundamentally disagree with wilders assessment of that game in this case.

We didn’t try and win that game and he can’t convince me that was anything other than pathetic to watch for 65minutes or that we deserved anything from our approach
 
If the interviewer gets up Wilders arse any more he’ll be tasting Brylcreem.

It’s not his assessment of the game that’s annoyed me there’s plenty of people who see the game differently to me and wilder has proven enough to me that he’s a good manager. I was prepared for wilder to say he thought it was a tight game that could’ve gone either way etc it’s his stock line I suspect to protect players who he knows he’s going to have to see the season out with. My issue is that that wasn’t professional and probably won’t go over well with the fan base it’s the first time one of his interviews hasn’t hit home with me. Also when managers start having sly digs at the fan base it rarely ends well unfortunately.
 
We don't even set up for a draw. We set up for a narrow defeat. Trying to bore the opposition to playing the game out once they're in front. No wonder we have so many injuries, they spend the whole of game chasing the ball.

Fulham had only won the same amount of games as us. Yet we set up like Mansfield away at old Trafford in the cup. Looking at damage limitation where a narrow defeat is seen as moral victory.
Yep. Wilder has built this team to lose 1-0.
 
He's mentioned a "back 8" a number of times in his interviews now. No wonder we never look like scoring, if the tactic is to have 8 men behind the ball and hoof it up to 2 front players in the hope that something might drop.

I want the old Chris Wilder back. The one who would attack teams and believe we could beat anybody. Seems like that Chris Wilder snuck out of the back door to play PS manager.

Most manages do the same.
Moan about referee when covering up a defeat and a crap performance.

I actually think they're scared of him.
 
Wtf are you chatting about you fanny? We were shit, wilder was talking shit. Plenty of others on here have the same opinion. And what is this "left" shit you're noncing about you fuckin vagina? Bring it, i fuckin love it.
TOWIE😂
 
The interviewer saying that we’ve gone toe to toe with a team like Fulham sounds like a parody question but I don’t think it was.

It’s Fulham ffs, they are shit relative to most other PL teams and we conceded the lions share of the ball to them and hoped for the 35% of the ball to create us an opportunity. Fair enough it’s a penalty, but apart from that we’ve had 1 meaningful chance all game and it fell to Enda.
 
The interview on Football Heaven is no better. Very aggressive when asked what he thought of the overall performance.

Come on Chris! Where have you gone?
 

I usually appreciate your posts Essex as you talk sense. Is this a way to address any member of this board? Sitwell is a respected member of the board who rarely throws around abuse. Its hard to be calm watching that but I gave up months ago.
