IWEDFM Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Listened to the Sky interview by the prince and i'll stick my neck on the line here and say how refreshing it was to listen to an owner talking so transparently. A step by step account of events yet refused to slag of Wilder despite everything that's gone off. The complete opposite of the man running our club who never accepts his share of responsibility and lays the blame firmly at the door of the fans, manager, players, media etc. What struck me about the prince was his loyalty which is a rarity in modern football yet it seems Wilder didn't want to tarnish his reputation by having a relegation on his CV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my post is still up anyway, but I wasn't implying anything, like Biggs said on talkSPORT. I only meant Wilder was round helping Biggs as he fell down the stairs or something and he was eating a Banana while on talkSPORT after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit less black and white than that. He did very well for them to get them from the 3rd to the prem in 3 seasons. Any manager who does that with a team is rightly praised. He did well to get them to where they were pre lockdown. Then it went downhill. So he's not the greatest manager ever but he's also not the worst. He's achieved stuff many managers haven't and he's failed in bigger ways than many managers. Credit and criticism where it's due from me, albeit through gritted teeth for the first bit and tears of laughter for the 2nd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 He's a good manager who has been made out to be a great manager. Getting two promotions within three seasons is a very good effort and leading that bunch of cloggers to ninth in the PL should be commended. But you can only dine off such things for so long and this season, plus the manner of his departure, may suggest that he isn't the second coming of Pep Guardiola after all. Seems to me he's very much in the Warnock mould of managers, as in a lot of it is down to hard work and pashun, getting a bunch of average players to run through brick walls for you and play above their natural ability for as long as possible. Yes, the 3-5-2 system with overlapping CBs was quite innovative, but he literally had nothing else once teams had worked them out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A club of their size has no chance unless it goes foreign. But if this is true, and Tufty was offered foreign players and refused them, then he's dead and buried no matter what Piggsy says. I've heard he was offered Mitrovic, but turned him down and signed Mcburnie instead. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Mitrovic's record in the EPL isn't much to shout about and would be on higher wages. But if true he was offered Soucek and turned it down, that's massive. He's been a massive hit at WHU.
