Re: FT: FULHAM 2 - 0 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

There are accomplished managers and young managers available in other parts of the world who will become better than Wilder.

If your horizons stretch 300 miles or to people who have managed in the top two divisions in england over the last three or four seasons who aren’t gonna ask for huuge wages then yes, Wilder is the most realistic and appropriate option.

He’ll do a job and his football will be a lot more similar to that of the DJ era….he also seems like a decent person.

I would just love it if the club has the type of ambition that Leeds had when they went and got Bielsa. Or the type of gumption than Brentford have shown… something refreshingly un-cardiff. Or even give someone like Rowberry a shot.

While I agree, I just think he would be the best option in the circs. We're in freefall. We need action quickly or we'll be looking up at Derby.

We are in big trouble. We don't even have one player on form, not one of them is performing. That's a massive worry when everyone on the playing side of things is utter shite. Most teams at the bottom can say that there's at least one positive. We were shit before Mick arrived, but it seems like he's rinsed anything good out of this squad.

Form can change quickly

I wouldn't be enamoured with Wilder being appointed.

Neither would I. What is it about him that doesn’t float your boat?

Cardiff manager Mick McCarthy:

"It leaves me on the back end of a real horrible run of results. If football is true to its usual stuff, we know what happens - but I can't do anything about that.

"We've come back in off a bad defeat against Swansea, we've certainly had a better performance and I'll be doing exactly the same for Middlesbrough until I'm told differently.

"If we perform like that against other teams then we'll win games, but I'm afraid Fulham were too good and too strong for us."

I think it was the fallout of the second season in the premier league. Sheffield United were disastrous in every respect. So bad that they'd have struggled at championship level. For me, it sort of indicated that Wilder ran out of ideas very quickly and in a warnock kind of way, damaged irreparably any of the good work that he carried out, to the point that it could take sheffield united some time to recover. This may sound harsh, but a more sophisticated Warnock.

It is harsh. Sheffield United were in League One when Wilder took over, so they definitely benefitted from his time there even if they only manage to stay in the Championship.

Well, that was shite.

Now we know why we don't play it out from the back...
we can't.

At least we know we've got the support if we try and change things.

Re: FT: FULHAM 2 - 0 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

I thought there were more crumbs today than on Sunday. Good crumbs.

Who cares what Mick does though anyway, he’s on his way and these last few games have just been irrelevant.

I can't comment on the game as I didn't see it but there seemed to be positive changes and a few encouraging performances?

With you on MM he's done pointless keeping that conversation alive.

Am I right in thinking he was stubborn in his ways as well or am I remembering that differently?

He's obviously done well and could do a job here but I have lingering doubts. It's almost like it's impossible to to please us in this search.. I just don't want a carbon copy again, I am crying out for change.

He went all in on one idea, one career long plan that didn't work out.

You'd hope with a newer type manager they'd have a bit more in the arsenal, I certainly think the newer managers are more bold and brave. We need a new type of thinking.

I'm not sure he'd understand the nuances of the game

Basketball is his game.

Re: FULHAM v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

Evans has looked bright

Colwill looked very good first half

The issue, as ever, is our dreadful midfield

Evans didn't play at all.
