    Either of these two would be excellent. The owners should push the boat out to get one orcthe other. Wilder would be a great coup and a statement of real ambition.

    I think if we signed an Orca that would be killer.

    Salary won’t be enough to attract Wilder. I doubt he’d fancy working with a very limited transfer budget either.

    Wilders a manager. He wouldn't work under the constraints of a head coach.

    Wilder. However, his last two managerial ventures have been failures.

    Mick McCarthy, Moore, Robinson or Wilder for me.

    Wellens is high on my list. Wouldn't have to change our style too much.

    No way we can afford Wilder.

    We can’t afford Wilder and he could easily land a championship job if we waited, can’t see him even entertaining it.

    Wellens on the other hand, 2 league 2 titles and an EFL Trophy to his name at 43 years old, that’s some record, he’s from the north as well so I think we could easily tempt him

    Wilder's stock as a manager, as never been lower. I think he would jump at the chance to stay local and boss a squad that should get him another promotion on his CV.

    I don't want him BTW, just saying :D

    Hopefully he’s on the short list and is being interviewed

    Not sure Wellens would be that interested. Orient have just won promotion to the same league as us and he might feel there’s plenty of potential there.

    I’d take either.

    Still can’t believe we didn’t take Wellens on as a player.

    He’s probably a multi-millionaire

    Absolutely zero chance of Wilder. Why is Nathan Jones not getting a mention? Not even listed with bookies…..

    More than probably a coach no one has mentioned in all the name’s being spoken about

    No thanks, self appointed mastermind when he's winning, everybody else's fault when he's not.

    Wilder would give the owners an excuse to back down from their failed model.
