Quoted from ginnywings
Sometimes the solution is right under your nose. We cannot tar him with the same brush as Slade, because ultimately, the final decisions are the managers to make. It's not like Slade brought Wilko with him and perhaps, the hope was that Wilko would take over one day anyway. Think it may be too early for him now, but while he is in charge, he has a clean slate and will get my backing.


Starts with a clean slate for me too. None of us can know the precise nature of their (Slade & Wilko) working relationship.

Can't really do much worse (!), and it'll be interesting to see the side he sends out at Cambridge.

He's always got the excuse that he was just following orders. Maybe, just maybe, he can get something from this group of players? Whoever comes has got to work with them, and Wilko knows them inside out. Don't forget Hurst blossomed once the other RS was removed.

To be fair to the much maligned gobshite, we finished in the same position in his last season here as we did in 15/16.

In the village, or on the outskirts ?

Dont think your right tbh, he was not the decision maker nor did he have any influence on precedings. he wasnt slades man and im told they had a dislike for each other.

Give him a chance, wont be instant but we will improve, but saying that cant get any worse

I would have sacked him too. Comes across as inarticulate and hardly with it and I can't see how he has stamped his influence on the current set up in any positive way. I don't see any reason to think he can turn us around but we'll see. I sincerely hope we are going all out for a new manager.

I have tried to listen / watch his interviews on IFollow but I haven't been able to get through any of them. May be unfair but he doesn't seem to have any charisma at all.

Slade and Wilkinson were forced together, Slade didn't appoint him as part of his team so we don't really know what his ideas are on how the game should be played. I don't want to see any more of this excrement we've been served up all season long, it isn't the Grimsby way, let's see what Wilko's ideas are and take it from there. I'm looking forward to his first interview, let's see if I can get through it without nodding off. I'll try and keep an open mind but he is tainted already, character is important in football, let's hope Paul's comes through as I haven't seen anything as yet.
