NERVY-OWL 195 #2 Posted March 12, 2021 Just caught back end on radio Sheffield. He was saying it's not official yet. Can't believe it if it's true, could this be the first big mistake the new owner has made. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Vasquez Rich 10 #4 Posted March 12, 2021 If true... a BIG mistake..... ... new guy, squad decimated, tough year next year.... we all know how it goes, they were mad to sack Warnock last time this happened. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Brooker11 10 #5 Posted March 12, 2021 I think he's lost the dressing room and the owners don't trust him with spending big, something has to be deeply wrong to have such an unprecedented bad season as this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

If it had been an ordinary season I'd have to agree but alot of variables this season like packed fixtures and no fans. I said a while back this owner has only had the good times since taking over, now the fans will see what he's like without the stability Wilder brought to the club. There seems to of been a big breakdown in the relationship between the board and Wilder that's for sure.

Thirsty Relic 214 #8 Posted March 12, 2021 No players were brought in in the January window (even loans) when our already small squad was decimated by injuries. No chance to turn things round as we were playing twice a week against bigger squads that could rotate players and cover injuries better. Clearly, the owners had already decided to plan for relegation and a new manager, and not try to scrap to try and survive. Chris couldn't just sit and take it anymore!

Certainly seems like it looking in from the outside. All the fans wanting him gone look like they have what they wanted but we'll see soon enough if it was more down to goings on higher up than the team management. I still think it's a big mistake letting him go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

This is what happens when 'someone' controls a football club, not all decisions the owner makes will be agreeable to the paying supporters or right in the long term for the club, I think they have made a big mistake letting Wilder go, he may well personally go on to manage a bigger and better club, but as a Wednesday fan who has seen dem Blades having a laugh at our expense this last couple of years, I will have a little chuckle to myself if this decision backfires when thinking of those Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
