Wilders post match interview

[Dkc]

Steve Cooper? Been out of work a bit now,might be up for it? Didn't set the world on fire at Leicester or Bronby but did well at Swansea on a frees and loans only restriction, not to mention getting Forest off the bottom of the Champ to the PL?

It's been repeated numerous times on here, but our owners aren't going to sack Wilder and bring someone like Cooper in this season. A move like that will also entail moving on a lot of the coaching staff so the new manager can bring his team in. It would involve paying off Wilder and the staff and putting a financial package together to bring in the new manager, Cooper or whoever, and his preferred team.

Unless we look in serious danger of relegation, no change will be made before the summer, and probably not then if we finish in or close to the play-offs. Given what happened last time, out owners will be wary of making a change and they won't want to fork out millions for a new manager who isn't guaranteed to do better.

Cooper was a disaster at Brondby, btw, but I still rate him. He's a good shout as other clubs won't be too keen given his recent record. But speculation is pointless atm.

If you thought Chong was decent enough first half then you were watching a different match to me. It's not for me to defend Wilder. As I've made clear there's plenty of legitimate reasons to have a pop at him without making stuff up. In fact, if we're being bloody minded, it could be argued the timing of the subs was spot on.

Yet Arblaster was one of the first two off and CW chose to leave Chong on for the full game. That’s not made up is it?

 

[KMC-1889]

You can argue the merits of Chong v BBD but I don’t think a single fan would argue of the three Donovan would be first pick every day of the week and twice on Sunday.

I’d take Donovan and play a man down rather than have Chong and BBD on the pitch. Awful footballers that encapsulates the absolutely shit our squad has become.

 

[BangorBlade]

What winds me up is the fact Wilder wasn't happy with the 1st half performance, so why didn't he make changes at half time instead of waiting till the 55th/60min again.
Chong was better when Femi came on behind him.

He's turned into Nigel Clough but without the cup runs

It’s funny you should liken him to Clough because I was only thinking the same this morning.

I think he’s done at this level now. Without United and his reluctance to work in a more modern structure I don’t think any other championship chairman gives him a job.

I can see him finding happiness in something like Cloughs Mansfield / Chesterfield / Barnsley or similar.

Somewhere local, without the pressure of running ‘his club’ and somewhere that would allow a more old school approach for the next few years.

Once he’s gone and the dust settles the blades that want him out will ultimately look back on him as the best manager of our generation and with lots of fondness but before long it’s going to get nasty and as much as I’d like him moved on I don’t want to be chanting Wilder out either.

Arblaster was poor as were 9 others first half. Just maybe he'd given them a bollocking at HT and was hoping to see a reaction. It didn't happen so subs were made. That's what managers do isn't it? Chong was honking by the way, especially first half and missed a sitter second half.

I look back at him now as one of the best.

But it’s a heavily patina’d legacy now. A pale imitation of how things were

Good post

Wilder isnt going anywhere

Probably not... but the fans are, somehow dont see the owners like seeing an empty stadium

Next season looks like being a major reset with the number of players who will be out of contract. There’s a big opportunity to begin the process of piecing together an exciting young side that will require patience for a season or two as it develops, but I think the fans will get behind that if they can see forward momentum. What’s badly needed is some optimism and a sense of direction. It will require the owners to take some smart decisions, though. Sadly, that’s hardly a given.

spot on tj if we didnt have 21k season ticket holders we would be getting under 20k watching the rubbish that wilder is dishing up and first worrying signs yesterday that even season ticket holders are turning their backs on the club cant have been more than 22k in the ground yesterday and that incuded 2800 derby fans united fans reacting to wilderball as pig fans reacted to get chansiri out by not attending games its time for a change wilder is finished at this level and it pains me to say that after being one of his biggest fans first time round a mere shadow of his former self utb ftp

 

[Aston max]

Apart from when he says that if he had left out BBD or Chong for Donovan the fans would have complained. That’s just concerning.

My lad was saying this morning wilder reminds him of cloughie , absolutely brilliant at one club ( I reminded him of Derby but he's only 39 so didn't realise) that like cloughie at forest he has become a legend here but that "status" is going to disappear very quickly because he's loosing the respect of the fans.
He added he must know what's happening within the fans opinions because surely he must read forums like this one ?
