But I cant see him coming or fans accepting him. He doesn't feel a good 'fit' because of his past connections. Makes me laugh this though, if Wilder was willing I'd have him here now, fans saying pig this and that are just being stupid. It would be interesting if he was offered it to see if he would but imo he would refuse on the grounds that the club doesn't fit his criteria not because its Wednesday. The only problem with having an ex Sheffield United man is if things start to go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HillsboroughOwlNI Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 It happens with players and managers everywhere else though, and at much bigger clubs. It usually gets a few grumbles, but then largely forgotten. Benitez- Liverpool & Everton Cabbage head and Alex McLeish - Villa and Birmingham. Lots of examples from the old firm. Tevez- United & City Owen- Liverpool & United. I’m sure that list hasn’t even scratched the surface. What makes Sheffield so special that one can’t switch to the dark/light side?

DSandersonOWL Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 We certainly need a proper manager/coach !! Not Moore of his wrong team in wrong positions using useless tactics and useless substitutions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shandypants Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 If true, I’d have him as manager. He’s a professional and a winner, however, my preference is for Moore to sort this 5h1t out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had players that have played for both clubs. With Wilder it's probably different because Wilder is a United fan. While Benitez isn't a Liverpool or Everton fan.

marshy Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 I wrote that we all needed patience with this and not just a few weeks, so I have to go with the same with 8 games or so played. Without doubt however, there are causes for concern which will have to be ironed out, and my biggest fear is that it will simply lead to frustration if these are not attended to and soon. 1) Stick with a side. Pick an 11 and stick to it apart from poor performances and injuries, but in the main stick to it. 2) Have a plan of what needs to be changed if things go wrong in games. 3) Do we have a plan of any sort? it doesn't appear we have to the naked eye. 4) Players improve and gain consistency by playing games. Not in one week and out the next. For now, I'd stick with him. There's no point in sacking him without any idea of who we can get in next. And lets not forget, we are not likely to pay a fee for anyone. So, we end up with and out of work manager. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were offered a high 6 figure or 7 figure sum to manage United, would you take it? I would. Win/Win scenario. From the other point of view, if Wilder was the best manager in the world, would you still say no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he’s (not) ‘ one of our own’ (whatever that means?) more than likely the same folk that ‘reject’ Wilder (still) want Megson Plenty of S6 ——> S2 ( & successfully?) Quinn (via Stockport) Bromby Geary Dooley (none playing) & less ‘successfully’ Curran Morrison Wilson (gaffer !?!?) Loads of others played for both with varying degrees of ‘success’ Clarke Windass (snr) Marwood Mattock McGoldrick Barrett Cresswell Bradshaw Treacy McMahon Johnson etc etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlinmad Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Chris Wilder was not "one of their own" growing up and playing football on the Arbour' back in the late 70s early 80s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plonk Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Would be brilliant .....just to see the reaction. Half our fan base saying they’ll never set foot in Hillsborough while he’s manager, half of their fan base sat crying their eyes out and the other half saying he was crap anyway . Oh hang on that’s their fan base now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
