I liked DCs approach to drawing games. If it’s level, go for it in the last 10. If you gamble and win one and lose one, that’s 3 points. Holding out for two draws would yield 2 points

Holding out for two draws would yield 2 points DC would have taken us back to L2 if he'd remained in charge and is now going nowhere fast at Walsall, I'm not sure he's the perfect example to use. Most fans would have been content with PT drawing his first game in charge, which he would have done but for Jaakola making an uncharacteristic mistake and Nicholson hitting a post when it looked easier to score. Pat's now got two big games coming up, neither of which he can really afford to lose.

PT is just another journey man-The whole point with BG he was not. He was brought in with a oppurtunity to build something good and sustainable. Look back at Octobers results, they were going the right way. BG would have kept us in Div 1 and carried on rebuilding. PT will take us down and then another sacking and another journey man. The board should have stuck with Garner,it was obvious there would be ups and down due to the age of the squad but they panicked and as I see it made the wrong decision. Only time will tell and I hope I am wrong You’re entitled to your opinion but you must be in a landslide minority to say you’d rather have PE teacher Garner than a manager with 15plus years experience

Tisdale's main, or at least first, task is to get Ehmer to be the leader, organiser and captain we all thought we were getting. Possibly going to a back 4 could be the way to get that process started? What also might be a good idea is not having a midfielder (in this case upson) marking an experienced striker (pitman) in the box from a set piece.

That's been an issue all season, I can't recall when we last defended so poorly on corners etc.

Has he done a pre match interview for the Wigan game tonight? I've not seen one yet.

I thought that was a pretty good interview, to be honest. He’s clearly aware of where we’re falling short, clearly aware of the situation he’s been handed regarding strikers, and is still feeling his way around in the dark, so to speak. Pretty positive, I reckon. Fight me . . .

Not a fan of excuses so I think he laboured it a bit too much with the old “what can I do?” about having had only one training session (one training session since Thursday night?!). Just don’t mention it and talk about the game! But other than that I’ve warmed to his media personality. He inspires more confidence than bullshit bingo Garner, although that’s obviously not saying too much!

But like you, I too am warming to his media personality; it’s still early days yet, but I think we can probably expect his interviews to be more forthright, honest and accurate than we’ve been used to of late . . .

He’s very eloquent too. I mean, I love DC’s barrow boy rascal charm but I like how this guy can articulate what he’s looking to achieve and what he wants from the players. Very affable manner too. Definitely gone up in my estimation and it shows how if you can conduct yourself well in the media you will get good will from the supporters even if, like me, they had doubts about your appointment. Take note for your next job Garner!!

Once Tisdale was chosen maybe we could have hit pause for a week and he could have taken a leaf out of Bielsa’s book, who watched 46 Leeds games of 90 minutes prior to interview and presented a full dossier on every player to the board (as opposed to writing articles for the daily mail and posting clips on YouTube). That way surely he wouldn’t be as blind on the players as he is now.
A bit tongue in cheek and I’m 100% behind tisdale. It was a step forward from Saturday so hope to see another step this weekend.

Superb interview IMO - well done Paul.
I was critical of his subs vs Swindon but not for a minute did that mean I wasn't going to give him my 100% backing.
I still believe he can be a success and I love his media presence.
I really hope he's got a fighting chance - I do worry about the quality he's inherited.
That said, I have far greater faith that Tis can inspire these boys than I had in Garner.
Feeling hopeful.

I mean, he’s in charge of a new bunch of lads, he’s had all of 5 mins with them. If he’d been there giving it the big one about how “I told them to do that” the team would recognise he’s a Johnny come lately and they’ve done months of work without him. That said, he def set a different tone. Our style was totally different. Far more positive. Under BG we seemed to play tip tap around the defence and then a long ball to nowhere. Or a long pass along the ground directly to their midfield. We actually saw full backs play it up the channel. This may be old school but it’s what works with league one players.

We drew 0-0 against the worst team I have seen in this division for years and had 3 shots on target. I don’t think anyone can say it worked. It may work and I am always supportive of the manager and never want to see anyone sacked but it didn’t work last night. I hope it does genuinely work and PT gets things going.

A very good listen. Thought PT came across very well, an honest summing up of the night and without any of the constant repeated catchphrases we have become use to over the last three years. Quite clearly a very intelligent man who clearly knows the game inside out. More than confident after that for the remainder of the season and no doubt he will get a goalscorer through the door in January.

That’s fine because I didn’t say it worked. I said playing direct balls into the channels works with league 1 players better than tippy tappy
