I'm certainly not interested in someone who, in the summer before a ball is kicked, tells the board "We're going to get relegated from League One this season so we should play the kids to give them experience for when we're in League Two".
No thanks.

I wonder if he's learnt how to dress since his last job? Or is he going to think he's the coolest manager in league 1 He will be forced to wear a rovers branded shell suit from the shop. If he wears his own clothes it shows he doesn’t care - apparently!

I think this shows progress. We hadn’t planned to get rid of Garner, it was a reactionary thing to a terrible performance, but we managed to react to it rapidly because we knew who we wanted, and we’ve gone out and got them. When was the last time we were this quick with an appointment that wasn’t an anointment from within? 2020 Bristol Rovers, long live the new board! Guess what we don't know (and maybe never will) is just how long discussions had been going on "off the record" along the line of thought that it was all going pear shaped on the pitch with BG and then the Fleetwood game just crystallized them into action. The interviews made it sound like they had been worried and thinking about it but it was bought forward because of how terrible we were against Fleetwood.

One of the most banal and pointless football anecdotes I've ever heard and football anecdotes are one of the most banal and pointless type of anecdote.

It was all in the league below though bar one season of success in league one. Put it this way, if we got sucked into a relegation battle how confident would you be with Tisdale in charge? He won’t be the kind of guy to go back to basics to try and ground out results. If the pretty passing football doesn’t work I expect we’re as good as doomed. I agree though that perhaps throwing big money at a manager who would have been a statement of intent is probably not the best strategy in the current climate. I’m just not really wowed at all and I’ll bet the Sh1!heads won’t be having any sleepless nights that there will be a league derby any time soon either. Their opinion is a good barometer as to the kind of statement we’ve made. Anyway, good luck to him, I think he’ll need it. I really have never quite understood why some people consider certain managers to only be capable of managing in L2. Personally I don't see why there should be any reason to think that someone who is good at managing in L2, can't also be good at managing in L1. The only two times he's managed in L1, has been with clubs he brought up from L2. In my eyes, this immediately puts him at somewhat of a disadvantage, as Exeter let's face it are not a club of L1 stature, and MK Dons had a lot of injury problems and besides they have been struggling in L1 under other managers as well. At least Tisdale actually got them back into this level. If he gets appointed by us, then he's immediately working at a club that are already established at this level. I would be excited to see what he could achieve here. It’s the same as strikers who can score in league 2 but not in l1. It’s a step up for everyone at a club, there’s more nous involved in every are as things are that bit more professional. The time and space you get to work in on the pitch is that little bit less. so just as players can get found out managers can get found out. Let’s be fair he’s had one good season in league one after a few attempts. One thing he has got in his favour though is that he couldn’t possibly dismantle a winning team in the way that Garner did. I was adamant from day one that Garner was an awful decision and it was compounded by his taking us from 3rd to 15th. I’m not happy that it’s going to be Tisdale but we can only go up from here so if he manages that then I’ll get behind him.

Would not be my choice, he was longest serving manager at Exeter the club didnt progress a great deal. Moved on to MK Dons but never impressed. Didn’t he win back to back promotions ?

And in true gaschat fashion the new manager is already being criticised before he's even been announced.

I like that if he does take over then he will fully accept that the squad are HIS players. As per his podcast interview. If you take the job then you have no excuses these are your players. have you got a link to this podcast, been looking but I cant find it?

If he is the new manager. We need to unite as a fan base and get behind the manager and team. There has been good work behind the scenes, financially and structurally Time to move on and go forward Gasheads.

Not who I wanted If this is the case. I'll back him, but just looks like the cheap option again. I know they said they wanted the new manager in asap, but this quick!? How the hell is it a cheap option...? Who else can we get? Seriously..Who at our L1 level could we get that fits our requirments? Lee Johnson? Maybe Gary Monk? The club has stated pre BG appointment about the vision for our club with the style of play that they want us to play, and the importance in playing youth and building our own players. PT fits both of those boxes, and is experience and knows our club well.He has 3 promotions in his CV and is still quite young. To me he is almost the perfect appointment for us right now.Makes perfect sense.

[br Not digging you personally out here, but people wanted Michael Flynn, hasn’t exactly made Newport into a league one club the years he’s been there, Michael duff hasn’t done anything yet with Cheltenham, Paul cook was always unrealistic so if we start holding tisdale against those expectations then it’s more than harsh. I can definitely see why we’ve gone for him, promotions, developed players, experience, and his style of football, on paper he is perfect. Now it’s time for us all if he is appointed to get behind him and the team. UTG

Took Exeter from non league to League one in successive seasons. Three seasons in league one and then when back in league Two, took them to three play off finals. Took MK up in his first season and then sacked after nine games. Hardly the CV of a useless manager I would suggest as some are seeing him. Good luck to him I say and he has my full backing. His Exeter teams always played good football, Hopefully he can bring that to the Mem.

One of the most banal and pointless football anecdotes I've ever heard and football anecdotes are one of the most banal and pointless type of anecdote. 8 promotions as a Football manager would suggest he knows more than you on player motivation. Great appointment imho. It’s amazing the logic people use that he’s not a league 1 manager, when Exeter had the smallest budget in lge1 took them to 8th and was offered championship jobs it gets used against him. If he took one of those championship jobs he’d have been a Championship manager but because he stayed loyal people use it against him, crazy. For me the most important trait in a man above all else is loyalty and integrity above all else. Tisdale has it all as well as 700 games in management 1 relegation and 8 promotions.

It was the loyalty to players that cost him as well. But at least he knows where he went wrong and that is a massive plus.

I would be excited to see what he could achieve here. Not often I disagree with you Jomo, but here I do. I think there is a huge difference in the style of play between L1 &L2. L1 has a much higher press and the ball is on the ground more, L1 is becoming more like championship football YoY IMO. I think the big worry for me as well is the standards of players as well. As I’d stated in another thread, if we look at the standard of players we’ve brought in under DC, GC and BG - they’ve been getting better constantly. My concern is Tisdales understanding of L1 and higher
