Paul Tisdale Doctor Do-Little

I think just highlighting the situation on tv etc is good even if it's not really Tisdales fault..more comments regarding the terrible transfer disaster on tv and radio the better.

 

Would not surprise me if its true, but are there direct quoutes from the ex scouts etc saying this? Crazy if true but nothing this board does shock me.

 

He's targeting the wrong person, though.

He knows fine well that the deal makers are Nicholson and McKay and Sutton should have been smart enough to put his fury onto them. He didn't even mention their names. Mentioning Tisdale deflects from the people who are responsible for getting the deals across the line.

Makes it even worse when he doesn't really answer the question that Boyd tries to throw back at him. Rodgers has spent £60m in 4 windows(nearly 5), that is backing a manager. Sutton should have been far cleverer there. He needed to come out and say exactly what we all would, which is that the manager doesn't negotiate the transfer fees. The price of a player is irrelevant and both those players play in positions where we are well stacked for numbers. He * up there for me.

 

Yes. Congerton spoke openly about his relationship with Lawwell, while he was DOF at Atalanta(don't know if he still is).

The international £4m market we targeted came from a South American scout who was originally hired by Lawwell Jr and was then passed on that the club/board had directed the recruitment team to target those specific parameters. It was also backed up by McGowan in one of his Daily Mail articles, when he was very much in the inner circle.

Go Ahead Eagles Director came out and specifically called out the bid from the executive of Celtic. So, someone on the board.

There are multiple other things from agents who spoke openly about never dealing with Lawwell again, when he was CEO. Why Lawwell? Why not Congerton, Hammond or Lawwell Jr. Because they're not responsible for the deal. They're responsible for the identification of the players. That's where their job ends.

 

Okey thanks for the reply. What i find strange and suspicious as * with Tisdale, besides his ridiculous ego-maniac personality, is that before he joined, we spent 5-7-9 and 11 million on players. Then we signed a head of scout that has built a whole career on spending as little as possible in the transfer market. A known penny pincher in Tisdale.

I just can't for my life see him as innocent here. BUT, he is hired by the *, and they knew exactly who he was and they hired him just for the fact that he works with extremely tight budgets.

Im not sure that he works like he have before now that he works for us, but one thing i heared him say in a interview is that he said that he has the contact with the other clubs. He negotiate the price, and when that is agreed he first then go to the board with the player. So the Go Ahead Eagles saga could easily be his negotiating they are laughing at considering his own quoutes.

He said something like "I target the player, i scout the player. Then i negotiate the correct market value for the player, and first then i go to the board with what i have found"

I have never, ever blamed any scout except maybe Congerton a little bit, but this guy is hired to carry out our boards pathetic work

Those former scouts coming out with stuff like that and rightly so was actual SCOUTS. This guy is the boards yes man.

But in the end everything will be the boards fault because they are the ones having the final say.

 

Tisdale doesn't set the parameters that he works under. If the board tell him and Rodgers that they are no longer interested in paying close to record fees for players, then they need to scout players they can bring in who are slightly cheaper.

That being said, you could win the SPFL and compete in Europe for less than £15m total spend, provided you know how to spend the money. It's about scouting. Proper scouting. I don't care what a player costs. I just want good players. If he can bring in good players and they're cheap, I really don't care. If you look at our best 11 over the course of the last few years, it's not like they all come from mega fees.

 

Tisdale doesn't have any autonomy I believe.

After we spent 4.5m on Barkas, we have signed 4 goalkeepers, 2 for 1m and 2 on free transfers. Our board are paralyzed with fear. Because Idah and Engels haven't been rip roaring successes our board are now terrified to pay big fees for players. They are not competent in exercising their duties.

 

Much like Nicholson, he doesn't hire himself. Questions required levels above.

 

Another wage thief!

 

This guy judging off interviews I feel like is a pretentious * in really. Every single soundbite I’ve heard, I think he sounds an insufferable *.

I’m trying to stress so much how much I think him on a personal level is a guy that’s thoroughly dislikable as a person.


And I don’t like him because of that. He seems a *.


Now everycunt go look at the links we’ve had this summer. The credible links, the leagues they’re in, the wide spread across the world from it.

The difference in targets than we would usually say lack of imagination? Nah, it’s not been that this year.

Look at the imagination rather than same old paths treading from just the links. And just look at just the links alone btw.

It’s not Tisdales job to bring players he identifies in. And if we have public links to exciting players the fans are raging we haven’t brought in that’s been public business.

Then there is far more that’s not public.


He’s doing his job. Pretentious bell end or not

 

What a job

 

Agreed he isn't the issue i feel.

 

Get this tadger tae * anaw.

 

Aye because hes the one lowballing clubs

 

I imagine he's given a budget to spend on transfer fees, a budget he can add to the wages etc. If he can't make that work that is an issue, but he's not setting the budgets here. He has to hold some fault, as he would have come in knowing that was his job. People above him are not giving him much room though.

I think generally is * personality has made him a target, I mean you kind of don't want to like him and here is a reason to dislike him more.

 

I highly doubt he’s the one in control of the bidding amount. He will have to have meetings with the ones above him to discuss how much they are willing to bid after he’s identified and made the contact.

 

I’m not saying he is. I’d chase the rest of the * as well. Get them all away to * and start from scratch.

 

The thing is, we don’t know what’s gone on behind the scenes.

We can blame Tisdale or excuse him based on rumours and leaks, but all that really matters is that we’ve collectively failed as club.

It needs gutted in all honesty. If I were in charge I’d be throwing the chequebook at someone from the RB system to come in and sort this mess out. I hate the corporate nature of them but they know how to run a football club profitably while maintaining the quality on the pitch. They have a succession and continuity plan, which apparently our board have never heard of.
