latemodelchild Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 That from Biggs is very strange, almost like he is trying to paint wilder in a positive light in the face of what seems to be evidence to the contrary. Prince charmin is either lying or telling the truth. If he's lying then wilder won't need a journo to fight his battles, he can come out and prove it. Wish I could have someone who was that nice to me when there's no obvious connection or reason for them to do so. I'm baffled as to what the connection between them could be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incognito Owl Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 I kinda like/feel sorry for Ramsdale, but here he is showing how many league goals he let in, in the past 5 league games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofbert2 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 If I was Wilder and just been paid 4m quid with a NDA I’d keep my gob shut. He’s got his “side” of the situation in by stealth over the last few months. He won’t risk that dough unless he goes somewhere else who then cover any potential losses. One of our own! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The owner said that's what his agent requested at first, he won't have got anywhere near that. I was actually very surprised by the owner's interview there, seemed completely reasonable to me. - Chris Wilder did the recruitment his own way and it got them to where they are. - He then had cash to spend and bought dross - The owner then wants a re-think to the recruitment strategy (note he did not say a DoF, instead he wanted a wider choice from Wilder to allow them to negotiate), Wilder dug his heels in. The fact that Wilder has seen with his own eyes that his recruitment has been pants and is unwilling to at least admit it needs some attention shows him up. He's trying to run a Premier League outfit like the dog and duck. It will also damage his future prospects, as he only had that carte blanche over transfers having got United there in the first place, he'd be laughed out of any other premier league club if he wanted that. And now we have local journos who are now wondering how to tackle this truth bomb as they've been a part of the Wilder fan club for years. Good on the Prince I say, Wilder is a fool.

SiJ Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 So...everything many of us have been saying about the bloke for years had been proven to be true? That he was a self publicising, egotistical, narcissistic bellend who hid under the veil of being "one of their own?" That it was all about him and was from the start? 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Quote This will make his next employer a bit wary won't it? The first sign of things going wrong and he blames everybody else & holds them to ransom when he bails out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWEDFM Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Prince bogroll seems quite reasonable to me. I remember listening to him talking to White and Jordan on TalkSport about a month back and he was singing Wilder's praises and was desperate for him to stay and lead a promotion charge next season Wilder has been given cash to spend. If you add up what they spent on Brewster, McBurnie and Ramsdale that's not far off £70m. If you look abroad you could get 3 or 4 very decent players for that. Just look at West Ham with the two Czech lads. They have been a revelation this season and cost a fracticion of what Wilder spent on those 3 As i've said in this thread I do think Wilder worked a minor miracle taking them from League One to a 9th place finish in the Prem with largely the same group of players but he's proven himself to be a lower level manager as once he got there instead of building on it he completly threw his players and chairman under the bus wasting millions in the process 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says the Prince's interview is bullshit. The way Wilder has hoodwinked their fans is incredible.

RUMBELOWS91 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 9 hours ago, Incognito Owl said: Wasn't he bought for around 20/25M? Also Brewster is the only other one I can think of that will get some money maybe, around 15M? Ramsdale maybe as well, around 10+M? Anymore? Berge is the only big one though, I see Brewster and Ramsdale staying or being sold for a loss. Personally, I think Baldock is about their best player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's easy had £100m+ That might not be that much in the reality of the PL, but there is no excuse when they are all dross 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owls2k Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Just seen the full segment on Talksport is now on. Alan Biggs used the fact that he's apparently got a good reputation with the 50 previous managers in Sheffield to mean he's going to give a balanced and impartial view on his mate Chris Wilder's departure. Hilarious! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
