I personally loved everything Neil Warnock brought to our club, the passion, his zest for management and his overall personally endeared him to our fan base. Even though we knew it was probably the right decision to be made there was a tinge of sadness in the decision that enabled NW to leave the club with our best wishes.
At the time I became excited about Chris Wilder, he had a good track record and had played some great football. Spoken highly of by Sheffield United fans to so the signs were promising. It all started so well, there was some incredible moments along the way.
However there were certain things that really irked me about him as time went on.
I posted about losing interest in anything Boro related for a while, his personality was dour, his press conferences were the same thing every single week, same quotes, same old, same old.
The refusal to change tactics no matter what was happening. 5 wins in 27 Chris, your tactics have been found out, instead of denying it, do something about it.
His consistent throwing people under the bus for mistakes, there was no protection, Anfernee Dijksteel seems to have been his go to in terms of putting blames on his players.
As soon as any striker hit form all of a sudden they were dropped. Flo Balogun, a striker with a lot of talent hit 3 in 3 and all of a sudden thar was it, never to start again? Whats the point? Yet he persisted with connolly?
The treatment of Forss and Hoppe. They are club signings but Wilder made this blaringly obvious, there wasn't even an attempt to get them minutes? What's that all about? It's a Finnish international and a USA international who's desperate to get to the world Cup. Forss has hit double figures in a promotion season for Brentford, what was his problem.
We had some highs but it's just all come to such a dour end, I'll be astonished if he gets anything higher than mid table champion's as his next job.
He was given 10 new platers this summer. He has been backed, barring a big name striker so you can't say that was an issue really, he didn't have to strip the squad clean off the bone did he?
Best of Luck to Leo and the coaching team on Wednesday, hope the lads go out there and play with freedom and we can get back to winning ways.
My team for Wednesday night.
