Chris Wilder


The utter lack of humility combined with knee jerk ‘ know nowtism’ is mind blowing!
One game back at a team that is deflated, he loses and the haters are gloating
He loves his team, he has no airs or graces, it’s what we would expect of any player or manager at SAFC

I don't know if having a supporter as a manager is a good thing for either the club or the manager.

It would increase his stress and thus there would be a lot of fear in his decisions.

Ridiculous to sack him in the first place, but if I was wilder, I'd have f'd them off. Fan or not, have some pride man!

As much as the blokes a monumental helmet, I said at the time it was a harsh sacking. Most years that 93 (96)points wins you the league. They have players in that squad who are his players and would have felt the sacking was harsh. Was never going to end well for the new bloke. Playoffs for them imo.

Definitely; he recruited a decent squad of players that were hard to beat and played some decent football. Wilder established them as a Yoyo team, but sacking him has turned the club upside down. Part of the reason I think was Wilders transfer targets (he was after Mepham and McBurnie if they won promotion) wasn't part of the vision of the owners. I get it, but really be careful what you wish for. Fortunately it can all be fixed this season, a smart move listening to me and hiring Wilder again.
