Hollowhead was not so bad for the Rovers was he? i wander why Martin Scott took over at hartlepool? Perhaps a similar putsch as has been rumoured to have happened at the City. Proteges both tins and scott and both having a baptism of fire so far.14 months ago and you can imagine what SL was contemplating; get tins to take over at a 1/4 the salary, help the balance sheet, stop the flood of cash and we can bounce back. he must have known what is now happening to City was no better than a 50:50 chance. SL is a smart businesman but his acumen in this decision is looking dicey now and that is a real shame. its a no win situation for him. stay as we are and quite possibly stay in the lower echelons of division 3 or set aside some additional cash for an early change. He is obviously a gambling man but i doubt he is ready just yet to throw the dice again but it cannot be that far round the corner. 10 games and he will, he must make a decision.

They appointed Sturrock, a proven manager at this level, and who wouldn't have come cheap, and they were promoted within a year. Similar to Hull City. They thought big and appointed Taylor (who we have turned down at least once) and just look at them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cider Army Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 I just don't think tinman could work under anyone else hes to stubborn in his ways and cant see this ever happening,We have to replace him its as simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hairyshamrock Posted September 4, 2005 Report Share Posted September 4, 2005 I've been blaming the board for a poor appointment since about a day or 2 after the announcement but i was shot down with "give him time". No, i know nothing that goes on at the club obviously...I think the difference between Scott, Holloway and Tinnion is that 2 of those had and have what it takes to be a manager but Tinnion hasn't. Its that little something extra that a manager can give when the brown stuffs flyin at the whirly thing that he hasn't got. Lets just put it like this, Ferguson had it but Brian Kidd didn't... simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former fans' hero Skeletor failed miserably at Rovers and was hounded out by their fans. At the moment it's odds on exactly the same thing happening to Tinman. Only difference is the ex-Tote Ender was given alot more time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
