bristolcitysweden Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Hopefully his last in football. Will probably do a Ward though as club owners are totally inept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cunnyfunt Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 On previous history he wouldn't have taken them up via the playoffs, so I can sort of understand it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bemmyredjeff Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Strange timing My eldest lad follows them, gets freebies off Matt Hill and says they were shocking last night. Wilson has never really been accepted there and are stumbling over the final hurdle like last season. Many feel even a short term appointment of Chris Morgan, who always wore his heart on his sleeve is what's needed just to inject some passion into them to climb into the top 2.

timothy bird Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 I liked him at city ( until the play off final v brighton) we've certainly had worse managers! He's got a very mixed record though. Seems to have no problem getting jobs. Does relatively well. Then for whatever reason it goes pete tong! He was never a good fit their. Personal I hope they go up! Get them out of our way next season! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 No surprise, a pitiful result last night and they've been going backwards in recent weeks.

Uncle Albert Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Where is the proof to support this? Rumours on Twitter - that's all! No surprise, a pitiful result last night and they've been going backwards in recent weeks. As others have said with his track record who'd have backed him to win the playoffs anyway? They are only six points off second with two games in hand, and that's with one win from their last six! He's the first manager I can properly remembering us have. Just had a look, he had a win percentage of 47% with us (granted all at the top end of League One) - pretty good by most accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Taylor's Knob Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Is there more of a nearly man in football than danny Wilson? Certainly a nearly man. Like several others, quite liked him whilst he was here. Definitely had managers before and since that were a lot worse. However he did get it catastrophically wrong in THAT final!

!james Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 He has had more failures than successes. Failed at Sheffield Wednesday. Failed with us. Failed at Milton Keynes. Failed at Swindon.

Swindon8er Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Had some fun seasons with Wilson to be fair, Tinnion, Doherty, Bell, Murray, Matt Hill - christ what I'd do to see half the passion they had back then, shown by this bunch!

!james Posted April 10, 2013 Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 Depemds how you classify failure I suppose, I'd imagine his winning record with us, Swindon and The Blades is pretty good. If you look at win percentages: 37% at Barnsley 29% at Sheffield Wednesday 47% at Bristol City 31% at MK Dons 44% at Hartlepool 36% at Swindon By no means awful but ultimately he failed to get us out of League One with a good squad and good financial backing, excluding Barnsley his recent record shows one promotion from League Two and two relegations from League One. Playoff semis and finals are all well and good but ultimately he failed to win promotion with numerous teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
