 Give him a break
Topic Originator: coventrypar  
Date:   Sat 15 Mar 01:07

Tidser
Young manager - asked to be a coach and work with players bought for him.
A step up from kelty and that`s personal ambition in action
The job under the analytics new owners needs a seasoned pro to do that if they are humble enough. Possibly the wrong hire.
If he was fitter he would probably still be coming to the end of his playing days.
He needs support or if it doesn`t work out he needs compassion not fans baying for blood
Human being doing his best
DAFC is my long term hobby/passion - it`s his job/reputation.
Chill folks

Nope!! He simply is not ready to manage a club like Dunfermline. The CEO should leave with him, root of the club’s continuing decline. Time is up!!

Agreed! Never seen a manager look so lost during a derby game before 🙄 not what you want to see if your a player looking to him for help. Get him out before our next game and we might just save ourselves from this torrid mess we are in.

I understand the rationale behind his appointment and I was supportive, but the honeymoon period is now over and it`s plain to see its a step too far.
Inexperience is in my opinion evident, especially in the way the management team name and shame players with the underlying theme, it`s their fault and not ours. I think they have demotivated the team and I suspect this was what `Geordie` was alluding to in his post match interview when he mentioned giving 100% on several occasions, only to add I think they are giving 100% as an afterthought.
The reality is we are stuck with him and I fear we are destined for the drop, but hopefully it will have been a very steep learning curve for him and once we get rid of the dross and he as an influence on the new recruits, he and the football improves. But maybe that`s just me looking at things through rose tinted spectacles!!

Throughout my lifetime, I have predicted that three managers would lead to calamity upon their appointment: Davie Hay, Peter Grant, and Michael Tidser. Regrettably, I have never been mistaken. Tidser appears to be entirely out of his depth; every time the camera panned towards him, he seemed bewildered. This is not the kind of individual we need. He’s meant to be a leader. The club is experiencing a decline in its fanbase. I have never witnessed such a rapid shift in sentiment towards management before. Regrettably, he must go; it simply is not working. He is responsible for team selection and their style of play. Since his arrival, the team`s performance has gotten worse rather than improved. Yesterday`s display was worse than the 2-0 defeat we suffered under McPake earlier this season.

The last 2 games v rovers and grangemouth the players couldn`t even attempt to give 100 percent effort. We know the majority are playing above their capabilities when it comes to talent but you can be the least talented player in the world but still put in a shift. Unfortunately a majority of these guys have lost their bottle.

No wonder when the players can`t even make an effort to get back into the game. The manager is poor but the "players" need to take some responsibility as well as they are the ones putting in embarrassing performances on a weekly basis.

From what I’ve seen so far none of the players brought in, except Mullen, are good enough for this level.

But the style of football and subsequent interviews also highlight that the management team are out of their depth too.

The new ownership has been a disaster so far.

Hope the algorithms can figure out how to sort this mess!

Cammypar, they simply don`t know what to do, the manager is blindly following "philosophy" and it isn`t working.

For clarity - I’m not saying his appointment was the right one. He is out of his depth. The anger and abuse he is getting …. That’s another thing. He doesn’t want to be struggling. He’s not trying to lose games.

To be fair there`s not much suggesting he`s trying to win them either!

To an extent yesterday but you can`t be telling me the manager is responsible for a player`s being incapable of controlling a ball under no pressure? Or having the ability to make a 5 yard pass to feet under no pressure? It happens all too often we turn over the ball way too cheaply that`s on the players. They have been nothing short of a disgrace for weeks.

Tidser now fallen into the mcpake team selection lottery trap. Players getting dropped as not good enough and those come in stink it out and are then dropped and rinse and repeat. Doesn’t know his best team or formation and to be fair anyone would have a hard job picking a decent championship outfit from that dross.

The best Tidser could do now is come out and say the signings in Jan were not of his choosing. Mullen aside they have been worse than we already have which you think would be hard to do! Who identified and signed these guys? Is Tidser being forced to play them as the stats suggest they will do the business?

There’s no getting out of this, too many hiding and too many not good enough. If I didn’t know any better I would say Tidser has lost the dressing room. They ain’t playing for him although even if they did they are not good enough for us to notice the difference either way.

Feels worse than under the last weeks of mcpake….

I’m not going to kick the man when he’s down. He clearly cares and he’s clearly suffering. However it is difficult when he steadfastly refuses to abandon a philosophy that clearly isn’t working and not only doesn’t have a plan B but acts like we don’t even need one.
I don’t know how much input and influence he’s had on the signings we’ve made but I’m struggling to see what they’ve got that’s going to get us out of this mess.

Dandywarhol nailed it.

Fully expect him to be gone by the end of the weekend.

He looks mentally exhausted and needs to be removed for his own sake.

Tidser completely brought this upon himself, he`s a young manager who literally watched the 3 games that McLaughlin took charge in. He thought it was a good idea to take what McPake had done in terms of slow tempo, overplayed possession football and take it to the extreme. It`s not exciting and it`s not efficient with the players we have, how can nobody at the club see this?

He`s done. Finished and it his own fault trying to force is daft strategy on players that can`t play it. He clearly doesn`y have the ability to get his ideas accross.

He`s about as popular as Peter Grant now. Disaster of an appointment.

We must sack him this weekend and put John in charge if we have any ambition of staying in this league.

This. Can accept losing or dropping points if it’s a purely because we miss chances but not by being passengers in games
