I was very pleased to hear this chanted loudly and proudly by the Big Bank yesterday. It is certainly the first time I can remember a pro-Tisdale song really take off although there have been attempts in the past. For me it was noticeable last season that when singing the 'up the Football Leagues we go' song the line about Tisdale being our king was muted, muttered or mumbled.
Is it safe to say that, for the time being, the crowd are finally convinced by him? I think so and not before time. Even the somewhat 'dimmer' elements of our support now understand that just because he doesn't jump up and down, scream instructions or give memorable radio interviews doesn't mean he doesn't know what he is doing.
Speaking of which after that episode against Kiddy Tisdale said he felt insulted by the fans. Does anyone know (or would like to hazard a guess) how he felt yesterday? I would guess very pleased but also ruefully reflecting on the fickle nature of football fans.
Not many managers, having had the success that he has had, would not have had any chants sung about them after this amount of time.
