Good. Wasn’t working.
Bristol Rovers can today confirm that it has parted company with Manager Paul Tisdale.
Tommy Widdrington will be taking charge of the first-team on a temporary basis, while the Club undertakes the process of appointing a new Manager. Tommy will be assisted by Jack Mesure and Kevin Maher.
Mel Gwinnett has also left his role as Football Operations.
The Club would like to thank both Paul and Mel for their efforts and wish them both the best of luck for the future.
The Club will be making no further comment at this time.

Disappointed it didn’t work out, but not with the decision. Thought he’d be a good appointment. But as said in the main post this hire wasn’t working. To have a record worse than Ben Garner is not acceptable and the club needed to do something.

Wow! It's not been great but I didn't expect that. Would be interested to know the facts though. It seems as soon as you talk out against the board you're a goner...

Good. Was worse than Garner.
Appreciate Wael paying off 2 managers, and I know it’s costly but he really does have to go all out and pay for someone decent and not the “cheap” option again.
On paper they probably seem alright. But football isn’t played on paper. We need a realistic approach to the next appointment on not just someone who can save us, but someone who can take us forward.

Talked a great game but didn’t walk the walk.
While it’s a massive shame it didn’t work out he goes down (for me) as the worst manager in our history. Which is saying something following Garner.

I think his post match presser had something to do with it as well. You can’t infer that one player is a human and the rest of the squad isn’t.
Bloke is a weirdo.

It’s more like when you prove you’re a sh** manager you’re a goner. I applaud the ruthlessness but who are we going to get in now? What happens to the Rovers DNA? Widdrington said last time he didn’t want the job. We’ve got no time to make a considered appointment. Such a mess. |

Wasn't enthusiastic about him being appointed, but I didn't expect it to go horribly wrong so quickly.
No idea what comes next on the Rovers roller coaster!
