121. Author: doctordandruff Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:28 I remember when Calderwood went to Aberdeen. Took over an awful team and changed his style to make them a nasty team that was very hard to beat. He threw his `how I like to play` out the window and made sure the Dons picked up points. That`s what I expected from Tidser. But then again, he clearly is no Calderwood. Reply |
122. Author: Never10yairds Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:29 Tidser should never have got this job. Murray was the sensible shoes option. Club should just write it off as a bad appointment now. If you realise you have got on the wrong train, get off at the next stop. Reply |
123. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:33 I thought Tidser likes to play football and attacking football that was mentioned before he was appointed. I’ve not seen any of that in 10 games, 7 of which we have failed to score. How are we expected to stay up if we can’t attack? 2 mins to go today in a derby and we still carry on playing it short to the centre half’s. We look absolutely clueless going forward. Also I’ve never seen a team lose so many, second, third, fourth balls. I couldn go on. This is nowhere near acceptable football we are being served up. Post Edited (Sat 08 Mar 18:36) Reply |
124. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:36 The shock that a manager that had half a good season in a poor League One cant adapt to achieve a few wins in the Championship is clear to see…… Completely disengaged with the Pars now that a defeat to them isn’t even that bothering to a Saturday. More positives in saving the entrance fee and a couple of coupon wins too. Reply |
125. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:40 We’re away to Raith next weekend and we haven’t won in our last 10 games there. 6 losses and 4 draws. Reply |
126. Author: TAFKA_Super_Petrie Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:41 Simply don`t have the players for that style. They all want an extra touch when it needs to be moved on quicker. Falkirk`s two wide players were demanding the ball constantly and they got it in quick, sharp transitions whilst wee fanny about with it and go sideyways across the park. Couple of times Boothe took it on the half turn whilst facing his own goal, spun away and had us on the front foot but everything besides that was far too pedestrian and laboured. Not sure if the Arfield MOTM was the old `sponsors on the bevvy` nod but i thought Ethan Ross was outstanding for them today and heald and shoulders above everyone else. Playing Yeboah out of position and miles out of his depth yet persisting with is just daft. Won't do him or his development any good. Shades of Ross Graham about that one. --------------------------------------------------------------- ![]() [b]"People always talk about Ronaldinho and magic, but I didn't see him today.

127. Author: RossDAFC88 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:44 I have supported the team since Tidser`s arrival, yet as fans, we have received little in return since his appointment. I certainly will not be going to rovers away. Consistently playing Yeboah for the full 90 minutes is shocking. Tidser appears to lack the necessary experience, and under his management, relegation seems inevitable. He is at a loss regarding how to revitalise this team, and his post-match comments only serve to reinforce this. Sick to death with this team. Reply |
128. Author: Berkey Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:47 I doubt Murray would have come here in the end. We obv brought Tidser in as we needed someone happy to just coach the team and play with players the owners have signed. The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity! Reply |
129. Author: RossDAFC88 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:56 Am I mistaken or perceiving this differently? A man who emphasises the importance of character within his team permits his players to approach the fans at the end of the game, while he himself retreats down the tunnel with his tail between his legs. I cannot think of a single away game where he has taken the time to thank the supporters for us turning up? Am I wrong? Reply |
130. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 18:57 No you’re not. Seen him today standing on halfway line watching the players take all the flack. He appears out his depth and doesn’t know how to handle it. Reply |
131. Author: Bertie Paton Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:02 Folk mistaking passy passy pash for attacking football. Tidsereball is utter dreadful. It is just the same as that garbage McPake was coming up with. Just give McLaughlin the gig to the end of the season and start again next year. John understood what was required. 7 goals in 3 games. Tidser is just a daft naive young manager that we don`t need right now. The crap players signed by the new owners is another thread needing created. Data analysis certainly hasn`t been great apart from JCM. Normal scouting would get you a better hit rate than 1/9 good signings. Reply |
132. Author: Paralex Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:05 Very difficult to criticise any of our players today. There was pressure from the away end to get the ball forward quicker but when we did just lump it forward, Falkirk were solid in defence. They were so good with their press that it left very little room to manoeuvre or break on either flank. Maybe Tobi could have been quicker to identify players on the break and get the ball to them. I thought our only chance of a draw was to keep the score at 0-1 and snatch a goal in the last few minutes. That almost worked out because our best chance in the second half came right at the end. Hopefully Airdrie`s win over Hamilton works in our favour. It certainly keeps Hamilton in our sights. Reply |
133. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:11 Difficult to criticise any of our players? Are you having a laugh. Did you watch Yeboah do nothing for 90 mins today? That was a team full of no ideas. Reply |
134. Author: Alter Ego Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:13 What the fek does Tidser do in training all week with the team? Surely when they watch that game then questions should be asked. That was utter dugmeat today….even a bit of fight/aggression to win the ball would have been good to watch… Tippy tappy nonsense is not going to get us out this mess and a few loan boys are well off it…Hope our American owner took note on this **** and full rebuild when this nightmare season is over. Mon the Pars! Reply |
135. Author: Par Dan Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:15 Tidser is completely out of his depth . It made no sense to get rid of McPake to replace him with a worse manager. This club don’t do anything well do they ? Reply |
136. Author: Andrew283 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:15 Buckle up, we`ve got this guy for another 2 seasons... 4 absolutely shocking managerial appointments in a row. It`s grim following us these days Reply |
137. Author: Ahoy!Ahoy! Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:24 Never thought I’d say this but I would rather McPake was given the January window and chance to bring some new faces in than Tidser being given the job. Never seen the fans turn on a manager so quickly. Reply |
138. Author: wulliepar57 Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:25 Paralex I wish I was as confident as you Saying Hopefully Airdrie`s win over Hamilton works in our favour. It certainly keeps Hamilton in our sights. ? It`s hard to see where we are actually going to win a game so I cannot see how we can keep Hamilton in our sights ! I am absolutely as Pi55ed off as i have ever been with the Pars right now , gutless spineless bunch of players , what you don`t have as a skillset you at least give a 110% in effort and I have failed to see this , people say some already know they will be gone , that`s not an excuse not to try , they should be trying their best to put themselves in the shop window to guarantee getting signed by another team next season Reply |
139. Author: Socks Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:30 New manager comes in, tries to impose a passy style, realises it`s harder than he thought, changes after a while to mix it up a bit but still completely fails to find anything remotely effective, or a way of making a coherent team. It feels like we`re on a never ending cycle of this happening and I`m sick of it. Playing short we have nothing, playing long we have nothing. And anything else we try seems to give us nothing in attack either. It was OK going with two up today and in the first few minutes we looked OK before losing a goal the first time Falkirk were up the park. From then on, pretty dreadful. Pretty tough going with both players who started on the left having a nightmare. I assume Raymond is preferred to Ngwenya on the basis that he might give more going forward - well, today he was utterly dreadful defensively and allowed his man to turn inside him at least 3 times. That dried up as soon as he had to go off. There`s not much more that can be said about Yeboah but he just looks nowhere near the level needed and that`s not just in attack - defensively he has absolutely no awareness either. Playing in that shape, the wide players absolutely do have to contribute defensively as well. The comparison to Ross Graham above is fair. As was the case back then, the player knows he`s having a shocker and needs taken out of the team for his own benefit as well as the team`s. Absolutely incredible that he stayed on the park all game. None of us know the contractual situation but it`s understandable for folk to suspect some clause about him having to play if fit, as it`s hard to think of any other explanation for him still playing 90 mins. Well done Aaron Comrie, who did OK today and didn`t hide as he tried to use the space on his side to get us up the park late in the game. Aside from that, another grim day. Reply |
140. Author: Row_ZZ Date: Sat 8th Mar 2025. 19:38 Really bad, that. Maybe the most inept performance this season, but there have been so many, so the bar isn`t very high. Tidser - sorry, but he hasn`t got it. Hopefully there is truth in the owners getting fidgety over his position. Someone claiming so over X, but probably BS. It`s maybe OTT but I`d get rid of him if there was any possibility of it and replacing with Kettlewell. We have regressed under him. "A smile might be good!"
