jamfox Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 it’s just like Potter all over again , the popular option gets waved under our noses , but it’s the second choice its really depressing but I don’t think Gary Oneal is a bad choice, there was a point where he was the golden boy in the EPL, and wolves’ fans loved him. He must have something about him 1
Corky Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 6 minutes ago, South Shire Fox said: Wilder bottled it last season with a far superior squad then Sunderland. Sheffield United will be the peak of his managerial career. He does not belong here at a club with the facilities and youth academy of Leicesters I don't want him either but there is some sort of logic with Wilder. At the moment I think you would choose from an up and coming manager from the lower leagues or abroad, a man with Championship experience, a promotion expert or someone who has proven to get promoted and survive. O'Neil is in none of these categories. 1
Spudulike Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 Seem to remember his teams, Wolves in particular, being on the receiving end of a series wrong VAR calls. Not trying to make a case for him but recall feeling that he'd been hard done by. 1 2
Popular Post Turtle27 Posted 7 July 2025 Popular Post Posted 7 July 2025 Having a head coach instead of a manager makes complete sense, he can concentrate on the tactical side whilst a director of football can take up more of a day to day management of the role. It’s good we already have a director of football in place……... Oh wait 😩😩😩🤦♂️ 1 7

whoareyaaa Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 (edited) I'd take GON over Wilder every single second of the week, Wilder would fall out with everyone for starters 100% the bottom of the barrel. Edited 7 July 2025 by whoareyaaa 3

I share your pain with the situation my friend, I really do, and I hate to be defeatist, but I don't think it would make any difference. The clowns at the top running this sh1tshow are selfish, arrogant and have nothing but disdain for the fans or anyone really. They care 'not a jot' about anything we do or even say, and continue just to ignor the situation and meet everything with a deafening silence. The fanbase is too split with KPFC softies for protests to gain any real traction and boycotts by the same token would also be a non-starter. As I alluded to it earlier they would just be ignored. Until KingPower sell up and Teflon Jon and Stupid Sue all fvck off, we will never truly move forward, as the rot is too ingrained. 2

Listening to When You’re Smiling and they say again the club remain admirers but compensation is the likely issue. Feels like another Potter/Corberan situation when not going for our first choice hurt us. Edited 7 July 2025 by lcfc_forever

Popular Post Pliskin Posted 7 July 2025 Popular Post Posted 7 July 2025 (edited) We have a dressing room in desperate need of a lift, and cohesion…. And they’re considering Gary O’Neil….. whose Wolves side completely lost their heads brawling amongst themselves in a disgusting run of form, and having to strip players of captaincy? Doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence…… Just pay the ****ing money to release Rohl. We will spend less on him than we will sacking O’Neil in a few months. Edited 7 July 2025 by Pliskin 15

adam Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 Even more depressing than Steve Cooper. We've known for months that we need a manager and thats the best we can do. This club is a piss take. Desperately needed someone who the majority of fans support, one bad result and the crowd will be on his back.
Dahnsouff Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 Why is Rohl better than the other names linked? Seems like it is just he has just not failed quite so obviously. All names are almost equally underwhelming.

Had a high ceiling so might be poached meaning we get more money and someone with ambition. 1

Don't get me wrong, I would be happy with Rohl, or some left field appointment, but even then I am unsure they would necessarily be any better than most of the other names we are linked with. Do think we are very narrow in our thinking also, but assume Wasserman does our thinking for us when it comes to some recruitment. Wonder who told us about Enzo?
Iwebema Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 Forest getting Edu and we are stuck with Rudkin and his power point interview process, leading to the most desperate of managers begging for a chance.

Seems like it is just he has just not failed quite so obviously. All names are almost equally underwhelming. The job he’s done at SW is actually unbelievable… they were dead and buried when he took over, and it’s clear they’ve got mountains of problems behind the scenes. Yet despite all of this he’s managed to keep them up, and last season within a short distance to the playoffs. He’s very, very highly rated and will eventually go on to manage a top side. He would be a million times better than Wilder or O’Neil. And a better long term option than Dyche. Hiring either Wilder or O’Neil would be a disaster IMO, and both would end up being sacked, and both will end up costing more to hire, invest in and sack, than Rohl will be to get out of his contract. 7
foxfan92 Posted 7 July 2025 Posted 7 July 2025 Am I the only one confused by reports saying Top is losing patience? Obviously the first thing is that we take so bloody long to do anything I can't believe anything other than Top having endless patience. If not, Rudkin should have gone long ago. But secondly, and more importantly, surely any compensation is agreed in Rohl's contract. It would be impossible for Wednesday's owner to move the goal posts if we pay the compensation, and if we're really going to discount our preferred choice because of a few quid in compensation, and appoint an interior manager as a result instead, then we truly have learned nothing over the last 12 months. 1
