His expectations- by what he has said- was we would be successful in bringing in 3 additions that were vital for us to move forward with a more balanced squad for the remainder of the season. This hasn’t happened.
Excuses will no doubt be aplenty- this will fail to mask the fact that ultimately the recruitment team have failed to deliver when the chips are down.
To a lot of posters this will not come as a surprise. It demonstrates why there is a lack of confidence in our ability to compete for some signings and questions the wisdom of selling Tav without having someone lined up.
The critics of us who questioned the wisdom of leaving activity until the closure of the window got it wrong - badly wrong. Straw clutches asked we wait till the window closed - we have and were vindicated in concerns . Will they hold their hands up now and acknowledge they were wrong? Of course not!
I believe Monday’s game has taken on greater significance. A poor result and Wilder could reflect on his position and what he can achieve with a squad that doesn’t match his requirements.
So our amateur haphazard recruitment efforts could have far greater ramifications for us. This isn’t negatively- it’s a realistic possibility.
