The new manager thread.

If Tisdale has met with the board twice then there is a very good chance he will be here before long.

Also, he has a link with Spurs: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11675/6097959/Tisdale-keen-on-Spurs-link

Tisdales predecessor Alex Inglethorpe left Exeter to become youth coach at Spurs. Perryman's links are still very strong with Spurs, perhaps he lets Tisdale leave with his blessing because of of the link we have with Spurs and has recommended Tisdale?

Cooper would be a disappointing appointment but at least we'd have some continuity and he'll be cheap. I wonder if the board would bring in an assistant manager?

Have I missed something? Where was it confirmed that Tisdale has met with the board twice?

[RobertT]

The adver article suggests that we have met with him.

while it is believed that Swindon have met with Exeter manager Paul Tisdale at least twice regarding the possibility of him making the switch to the County Ground.

Was well liked by Killie fans but I am not sure he is what we need, a managerial win rate of 30% is only marginally more than Malpas had prior to joining us.

He appears to be used to working with reduced budgets and young players though so that could work in his favour.

Kilmarnock fans thoughs on his sacking....

I know it was fairly recent and therefore probably appropriate as a comparison but we've got to stop comparing every Scotsman/unknown to poor ol' Maurice Malpas.

We'd never appoint a manager otherwise

[Abrahammer]

Rather have his one eyed son as a player.

Done an ok job at Killy and won't have spent a penny during his time there.  Bit of a cock as a bloke and likes kicking off in the media, not really the sort of yes man that I suspect our board are looking for.

I only put the MM comparison in there because his previous management is at exactly the same level as Shiels professional managerial experience, I for one will not call him MM mkII or mk whatever.

But also as MM is a pretty uninspiring choice if it were to be him.

Thanks for the pearl of wisdom!!

[Bob's Orange]

Let's face it after mm, pretty much any Scottish manager on radar from the spl or Scottish leagues is never really going to be in favour with people on here!!
