Christopher John "Chris" Wilder (born 23 September 1967) is an English former footballer, and manager of Oxford United. He was manager of Halifax Town from 2002 until 2008, when he left the cash-stricken club to join Bury as assistant manager.
[edit] Career
He started his career as a trainee at Southampton and was released without making it into the first team. He moved on to Sheffield United in August 1986 and during his career he played for 11 clubs, including a long spell at Rotherham United before joining Halifax Town in 1999.
He took over the reins as manager in July 2002 replacing caretaker manager Neil Redfearn, who had replaced Alan Little (who left on 8 April after falling ill with appendicitis in March). Halifax were relegated to the Conference at the end of the season.
Wilder was in charge at Halifax for more than 300 games until the club was demoted three divisions in June 2008, and he decided to join former Halifax defender Alan Knill, as the assistant manager of Bury.[1]
Wilder was appointed as the manager of Oxford United on 21 December 2008,[2] where he only just missed out on a play-off place.
