I realise this is a journalist's selection from a longer talk but it comes across as almost Trumpian in its self-agrandisement. You'd think Taggy, Perryman, the two Boards and everyone else who contributed were just minions.=
You get the answers to the questions you ask. It would seem to be the reflections of someone who has far too much time on their hands, a feeble grasp of their own real value and an inflated view of their own ability. He was for several seasons an excellent Manager at Exeter City, and provided the stability that the Club needed. However, as others have posted, he started to believe in his own invincibility and ability to spot and manage talent. We also suffered some pretty dire football towards the end of his tenure and an increasing set of post match comments that had little relationship to what had actually happened on the pitch. I'm sorry that it's come to this sort of posturing and touting of his own abilities.

Tisdale was very much like Tony Blair, good at the start and terrible at the end.

He alienated people with a number of strange decisions on and off the pitch towards the end and certainly lost my vote. I was glad to see him go.

They’re almost as frequent as the government briefings at the moment!

That is a great read and is really the early Tisdale that did so well for us lets be honest he is pretty much the most successful manager we have ever had. Its such a headscratcher that it went wrong for Tis.
