We get it, you don't like the bloke. The fact that you think the job should be given jointly (how ridiculously 'tinpot' would that be) to two guys with no management experience should CW go specks volumes to me.
Whether you like it or not Wilder is doing a good job and so far his signings seem to be once again moving us forward.

I know every club has them, it just seems we have more than our fair share.

There's a Blades press conference tomorrow down to Wilson, Robins and Hill by all accounts.

I guess we're lucky that all the L1 clubs seem to be pretty stable that would be the big danger.

Why? What would look better on his CV - winning promotion to L1 or keeping a team in L1? Building a football club / team takes time.
Question - is Chris Wilder and his family happily settled in Oxfordshire?

A top-quarter L1 team who've just had their boss poached by a bigger fish would be the danger, if they could wave more money at CW than we could match, and the chance to win promotion to the Championship.

Like I said, most of the L1 teams seem settled at the moment.

So they went for Danny Wilson. Apparently there's already a poll with 100 signatures calling for him to go!

The fact that a relegated Championship club were prepared to go with the boss of a relegated L1 club shows that we're not as safe from poaching as some might think.

In fact, I think promotion this season is essential in order to hang on to Wilder.

Good old Danny, that's two favours he has done us.

'In fact, I think promotion this season is essential in order to hang on to Wilder' - why, if he doesn't achieve it - then surely he's less attractive to others?
