New Owners and a stable financial situation, yes i believe SFC could attract Boothroyd. The young lads will be a year better off, and have the ability to do very well in League 1, with the club seeing the back off ALL the senior pro's bar KD and CP, i think there is plenty to work with.

Badger Posted 12 April, 2009 Share Posted 12 April, 2009 Boothroyd is overestimated on the back of a single season of success. Ince is a charlatan as a manager, as he was as a player. Tisdale p1sses on both IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He definitely has learnt his managerial trade at Team Bath and Exeter..Highly rated around the leagues...Also wise old owl Perryman with good advice and guidance...

Window Cleaner Posted 12 April, 2009 Share Posted 12 April, 2009 So many managers who should do better fall by the wayside because of their players. I believe that's been our case for several years, except for Burley of course he was just bad,irrational in his player wish list and bad at managing his players.After his noble efforts Ipswich,Derby and ourselves have found their way into deep financial difficulties.The scourge of football-George Burley. I see he is now having player discipline problems with Scotland, claims that some of his staff gave them the nod to go drinking of course, surely he's the boss and there should be no confusion as to whether going drinking is on or not.

Torbay Saint Posted 12 April, 2009 Share Posted 12 April, 2009 I have heard Tisdale on the local radio and he does speak a lot of sense. At Christmas he made his players go for a swim in the sea as a punishment / warm down the day after a draw. Can you imagine the Saints players doing that? It did hit home as we were pulling away from Home Park....what a dark day that was... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not making any accusations about his personal lifestyle cos I just don't give a sh*t but everywhere he goes there seems to be trouble with player discipline and often financial woes start the second after he leaves the place.

revolution saint Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Well you can only go on what you've seen but it seems like Boothroyd is a decent manager and doesn't need a lot of money. He seems to be able to motivate a team as well which is nice. The football maybe a bit direct but whenever Watford played us they scored goals and frankly at the moment I'd take less tippy tappy football and a few more goals f'sure. As an outsider it did seem as if Boothroyd was a victim of his own success - getting Watford promoted on a shoe string and then being blamed when a very poor side inevitably struggled in the premiership.

revolution saint Posted 13 April, 2009 Share Posted 13 April, 2009 Boothroyd is a total *****, if his apparent self belief and confident manner was so wonderful why were Watford[ crap football and all], ever relegated in the first place? Probably a combination of having a team that just wasn't good enough (there's only so much a manager can do) and a style of play that was easy to figure out in the premiership. Let's face it, Watford were always odds on to go down so to totally blame the manager is a bit unfair. Anyway, I'm not too interested in how he'd fair as our manager in the premiership - it's getting out of league 1 that's more important right now and IMO he'd be a good shout.
