Silvio Dante Posted March 10 Report Share Posted March 10 1 hour ago, Numero Uno said: Poor in the tackle or frightened of a tackle? Bit of both tbh. When he played we had an observation of the “Tinnion five” where he would run around like a lunatic for a limited period of the game before settling back to his normal pace. I don’t think he liked putting his foot in (odd as I think he started as a left back - early CM games even had him as a centre half!) but he did for some periods. Just not consistently. As I said, league one was his level. Too slow and too many flaws in his game to play any higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few of the more regular posters on here could seriously do with a week or two away from posting to regain some perspective. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the wrong word - broader point is I don’t really consider him a legend - he was a decent enough league one player who stayed either because that was his level or because he was comfortable. I don’t think he gets elevated to “legend” status without that goal which I think is the point I was slightly clumsily trying to make. (There is a broader conversation of what constitutes a club “legend” which this probably isn’t the place for!) For what it’s worth, and last night’s PR disaster has just reminded me of this, I did initially write that your comment was disrespectful… but I think he’s gradually eroding any remnants of respect every time he opens his mouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night indicated personal glory above all else, which as I’ve indicated I think is a personality trait of his - I didn’t expect him to reveal it that much though! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst Nige was running the show Tinnion might have learned a lot but he went the other way and that interview last night just proved quite a few people right about him. Doesn't help the club much though...........until somebody shows some balls, thanks him for his efforts over ?? years (not sure how many, it hasn't been mentioned.....) and holds the door open for him on the way out.
