Don't like the man one bit after the way he treated Richard Murray and the club a few years back.....disgraceful conduct and total lack of respect.

What's the story there @SoundAsa£ ?

I can't remember the exact time it took place but we were looking to appoint a new manager and after seeing who was available Wilder became our choice.
He came down to London and had talks with Richard Murray, mutually agreed some preliminary terms and most importantly "shook hands" on the deal.
We booked a room for him at The Marriott in order to link up at The Valley the following day with various club officials and his agent.
The following day and time set for the meeting arrived and went, so RM obviously called him and his agent repeatedly on their mobiles but got no reply from either of them.
He then called The Marriott only to find he had never even checked in!
You can imagine the confusion that Richard and one or two others that were there for the meeting now found themselves in.
Later(much later) that afternoon it transpired that like a spineless rat he had driven back up north for talks with Sheffield United. Shamelessly he even left it to his agent to contact Richard to inform him that things had changed.
Certainly he never apologised and last I knew from Richard and as far as I know, to this day he has never spoken to Richard or given any kind of explanation or apology for his shyte behaviour.
Since then, I have seen several posters on here suggesting we get Wilder back in our sights as manager.......I always smiled at those suggestions as it ain't ever gonna happen whilst Richard is still around?

IMHO..........Wilder is an arsehole!

I thought that was Billy Davies ?

One of the things that comes out of all this is that Wilder clearly believes Holmes is good enough for the Champs - so, how many more do we have that are good enough?, let me start...Kashi
