Gordon Wylde

Gordon Wylde (born 12 November 1964) is a Scottish former association football player and manager.

He was assistant manager at East Stirlingshire to Dennis Newell from March 2004 to December 2005.

The Shire saw considerable improvement under Wylde's tenure, even though he failed to prevent them finishing bottom of the Scottish Third Division.

[2] His reason for resigning was health issues due to the stress of attempting to keep the club from finishing bottom of the Third Division for a fifth season in succession.

This would have potentially resulted in the club losing their league status, and he cited the unrealistic expectations of the fans having a bearing on his decision.
