I'm surprised at that, thought he might move on at the end of his present term. Money talks I guess. I had a feeling he might head to Italy as he won pretty much everything everywhere else.

Major Isewater Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) Tisdale is not a universally popular appointment with the fanbase, with some raising concerns over his record in League One – getting sacked by MK Dons early last season and suffering relegation with Exeter in 2012 ButRovers believe he fits the club's strategy to develop players from within, and Tisdale had a fine record of pushing prospects through the EFL at Exeter. Read between the lines , it’s all there. Edited November 19, 2020 by Major Isewater 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wendyredredrobin Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 I think Tisdale is a good appointment for them. Whilst his managerial record is not great, he is certainly better than the team he is now going to manage. He has some promotions on his CV, so now let him add a couple of relegations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) I know we ought to be taking the piss on this thread, but I actually think that ‘could’ be a very good appointment. People look at Tisdale’s record but don’t look at the limitations under which he was working. At Exeter, there was a specific requirement to keep the club sustainable through the sale of their best young players. It’s a brave manager who plays 16 and 17 year olds, regularly, in the knowledge that by exposing them to first team experience, as well as ‘shop-windowing’ them, is in the best interests of the club versus ‘getting a result’. Playing the likes of Grimes, Watkins, Ampadu etc over the years, and having little budget to buy players of relevant experience and quality to complement them, was a tricky balance, but one which was necessary for the club to survive. People will argue that the academy at Exeter was all Perryman’s work, but you have to have a 1st team manager who buys into it and gives the players the exposure. Sticking 16 year old into your team, no matter how talented they are, is always going to mean a mixed set of results. So, there’s 2 things that the blue few need to get into their skulls re Tis. 1) He’s not a shouter, a ranter and raver, and he won’t give them any ‘anti-city’ sound bites and sing ‘Irene’ down Glos Road. He doesn’t necessarily fit the personality that the gas fans seem to take to their hearts. If they can handle a non-partisan thinker, then they’ll reap the rewards. 2) He will have a long term plan. He’s not a short term manager. This means he may not get instant results but he’ll be doing what he thinks is right for the future sustainability of the club. He’ll give youth players a chance, knowing they can potentially be an ‘asset’ for the club. He’ll want the right culture, etc. It’s actually a bit of a SOD comparison when he was here. There’s lots of important stuff being done behind the scenes to get the club in a good position for the future, but there’s little budget and results might not be great initially. If the fewers give Tis time, I think he’ll do well. Problem is, on both counts above, it’s not the Rovers fans ‘dna’ to be patient, particularly with a bloke who won’t get involved in their partisan ‘we’re the best supporters in the world and **** city’ attitude.

Robbored Posted November 19, 2020 Report Share Posted November 19, 2020 I reckon Tisdale will do a decent job for them. He’s got a decent lower league cv and sounds as if he wants to play attacking football - that’ll be a surprise for the gasheads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
