My understanding............. Chris Wilder was spoken to prior to JG's sacking and his reaction was fairly positive. JG sacked. .......Wilder changed his tune as various English jobs started to become available...........Robson appointed with Agnew with club looking for an appointment within a week or 2................Wilder offered substantially more funds, became interested..........until Watford appeared blowing AFC wages out the water...................Wilder has not ruled anything out in the summer, but in reality is using AFC to negotiate better opportunities closer to home. Playing a blinder.
Club spoke to Rodriguez (not interested)....................moved onto Steve Clarke (not interested and SFA put that to bed).....................moved onto Michael O'Neil (not interested meantime, but may be come summer)
And so, here we are....................
FMB are so out of touch within the game, agents and sub agents having to be used...............then we have the Cormack problem. Despite Alan Burrows coming in (we'll see how things develop over the coming weeks, given his health issues) there is still a real problem with managers not trusting DC and his constant 'involvement'
The statement is hardly indicating a long term solution has been found.........
