- I wouldn't be surprised if the 'Cravat' might be considered as he's done well on a shoestring at Exeter, with some good player sales and 2 promotions, just missing out on the playoffs in their first season in league 1. If you look at Exeter's recent decline its been due to the spine of their team leaving.
'twas season two that Tisdale reached his zenith Ali, season one saw his boys survive in game 46 with just seven minutes to go. Since reaching that high he has unfortunately displayed a complete inability to arrest a decline which has brought us to the absolute ignominy of being within one bad result of such utter crud as PAFC.
Tisdale's sell by date was some time ago and that opportunity was sadly missed, neither he nor Fletch will be in the frame for the Palace job, they are a team on the up whereas we two have managers who look sadly strained by the effort of consistently turning out a team at the very lowest League level.
For what it is worth I think you have got the better of the two, while Tisdale has had his feet under the table for over six years Fletch has been in situ for less than a quarter of that time and has been fighting fires the whole time having inherited an absolute clusterduck of a set up. The frustrations you feel from watching crap every week is understandable, but this time last season you were happy with the bounce dumping that Scouse tw@ Reid brought, ok so it turned out to be a bit of a dead cat bounce, but you have definitely moved on just a tad since then and it is said that patience is a virtue.
The Palace Job ? Who the ferk knows ?
The Blackburn job is still open after nearly five weeks with little or no prospect of anything but a caretaker roll over (looks like that could be drivel with Berg apparently being in the frame), I would suggest that CP is a better bet what with not having to climb on a plane to Mumbai every other week, a roundabout appointment of one of the established losers from the manager dole queue would seem most likely.
