For me, that is an honest interview from someone who is hurting and also determined to sort it out. Completely different from the rubbish that McPake spouted every week. Tidser has a steel about him that good managers need. Given time, I reckon he will come good. Survive this season and he will clear a lot out and build his own team.

Fair play to him, hasn’t tried to sugar coat anything. Will be interesting to see next weeks team sheet.

Yeah good to hear something a bit different and clearly very disappointed by some of the team.

Changing the team to remove underperformers is one thing but we’ll be replacing them with more underperformers!

Wasn’t expecting us to sign young so hopefully a few more surprises this week.

The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity!

Yep, that’s the danger Berkey, the current alternatives don’t look great. But his job is to try and make a difference. Tough gig I must say with this bunch but maybe we’ll see a couple of new faces this week. I hope so because we need them.

He’s too arrogant in refusing to change his beliefs. This is about the club, not him. Sticking to his belief in passing football will get us relegated. He needs to get off his high horse and do what’s best for the club.

The manager picked Chalmers at full back - Rhys McCabe must have been rubbing his hands when he saw that.

A friend asked me for an update of the Stenhousemuir game - my comment was that it was a good result but far too much pointless passing it backwards and forwards at the back - but primarily that it was hopefully the one and only time I would ever see Chalmers at left back.

Second goal looks like Hammy was fouled in the buildup — 2 hands on his back, which caused the ball to go over his head.

Third goal, yes Matty turned the ball over, but Airdrie gained possession all the way on the sideline at midfield. Hard to believe that our CBs got split with just 2 touches from there.

Pitch looked worse than usual in that ball would roll and then slow down at times — standing water? — but both teams had to address that. But it wouldn’t have helped how we tried to play.

Wonder if tidsers next answer to keep possession might be the same as the one yogi tried? Defensive 451 so we were a better unit but rarely scored.

We might just be able to draw our way to playoffs!

I’ve just watched the highlights and I’ll be very surprised if Fogarty starts next game. Slow across the ground and slow to react to danger.

I`d rather Fogarty stays in the team. He didn`t have a great game but, with us set up as we were, they were both badly exposed as soon as we lost the ball. We need some stability at the back, and I`d much prefer if the only change there was Ngwenya coming back in at left-back.

Next step would be having a reliable shape without trying anything fancy with full-backs pushed into advanced central midfield positions. Maybe we can go back to that later, but a big priority should be a stable and organised defence that knows what it is doing.

I think Ngwenya will return. Perhaps the manager wanted him to get another week of training before starting him after injury ?

We lack a bit of pace at the back and often, that can get you out of trouble, if exposed?
Fogarty isn’t our player and I don’t think he’s any better than what we have with Sam Young and Sam Fisher.
He’s also not the best at building from the back. Both Sams are more adept.

That pitch is absolutely honking. I know I`ll get pelters for it but these plastic pitches are absolute garbage. Get them back to the greengrocers where they belong.

Can`t blame the pitch for that though. All three goals were avoidable. We looked slow and completely out of shape (physically AND tactically).

I thought a fair summary from Tidser. As much as I find having Chalmers at left back and odd choice, the players just weren`t at the races. This was Airdrie FFS! How can the team that drew with Falkirk and beat Partick be getting pumped off Airdrie?! I know shouting at people doesn`t always get results but these guys need to up their game. We know what they`re capable of but they need to believe too and get stuck in.

Really disappointing watching Fogarty. Looked promising when he first arrived but yet another who`s regressed.

Fisher/Young deserve another shot alongside Bene. Young would be my choice but either will do.

Fogarty looks an absolute unit however he lost a few physical battles yesterday which I thought was disappointing.

Ngwenya is one who’s getting better, can only imagine he wasn’t fit for 90mins yesterday.

Bene never had a lot of pace and he seems to have lost what he did have. Hope that’s not permanent because he’s been massive for us.

You don’t get quicker as you get older, Knebworth, unless you are Linford Christie!!

He’ll use his experience and reading of the game to get a yard on his opponent, but there are times that it’s simply a foot race and you just can’t win those against a younger, faster player.

I honestly am worried about Tidser. There’s already fans against him . He’s had two games.


That reaction will be partly due to the team having been poor for much of this and last season, which is hardly Tidser`s fault. Some fans will perhaps have expected to see the fabled "new manager bounce" straight away, especially as we were playing the bottom club.

It`s been asked before - how representative of our active fanbase is this forum? Quite often, during McPake`s time as manager, folk were seething on here, yet he didn`t get a hard time after poor performances, either at home or away. Does that tell us anything?

I don`t think Tidser will be unduly worried. He`s not going to be sacked just 10 days into a 30 month contract. We`re not in Serie A. 🙄



Not your average Sunday League player.

I wasn`t at the game, so can only comment on what I`ve seen in the highlights. Matty getting a lot of stick it would seem and you could argue that he conceded possession for all 3 goals. Personally I blame the style of play. Receiving the ball deep with back to goal isn`t his forte, making forward runs beyond the strikers is. It baffles me that coaches know think that " playing through the thirds" blah, blah, blah is the only way, " the right way", to play these days. If it really is " risk and reward" then you have to accept that losing the ball in dangerous areas is going to happen. It did happen on Saturday and we got pumped.

First goal is a case in point. The ball from Foggarty to Todd put him under pressure immediately. But Foggarty had to play it coz kicking it long is a no no and goes against the coaches` principles. I dare say Luka Modric would have turned the player up his backside but it`s Scottish Championship ffs.

“Airdrie go up the park, we lose the ball, they score and I feel like it just sucks life out of us, on the pitch you could see it. That shouldn’t happen. We need to stand up and be counted, players need to take responsibility again"

15 minutes in to a new manager`s first league game and thats the reaction from this group of players, says a lot about them.

Defence was found seriously wanting! I will be controversial here and say I would drop Bene. We need a leader at the back and I can’t see this is happening! Bene is too slow. I would play Young with Fogarty.

I’m sure Tidser must have watched a few Pars game before he took up the post. If so, why did he play the same style and JC at left back? It’s such a disappointing start to his tenure and immediately puts him under pressure.

We are going down unless Hamilton do us a favour and prove they are worse than us! What an embarrassment that game was, absolutely shameful!

Watching the highlights back and it is even worse than watching it unfold as it happened.

You really have to point the finger at Tidser. All three of the goals came from his passing it out from the back mentality. We lost it in exposed positions three times because the players are being forced to play a style they aren’t comfortable with. We looked so much better playing direct under John McL.

How long will Tidser persist with this if the players don’t get used to it? Will he stick to his philosophy even if it means we get relegated?

Poor defence but forwards who still can`t kick a ball. Too many wild shot when panicking. When a better choice is available. They must know by now 20yds out 5% chance of scoring. 25 yards even less. So why keep doing it, just pass it,@
