never! he will jump before he's pushed.
Would have to be very extreme L2 dog fight in my book.
The man is Southend though and through and was one of my fav players of all time. He has shown himself time and time to be a top young manager and whats more he is one of our own.
Quite who some of the people who will no doubt call for his head if we struggle this season want to replace him is beyond me really. As I hate to break it to you but for a lot of managers Southend aint an attractive proposition.
Tilson is almost a victim of his own sucess. Anyone of us would have taken a mid table in L1 a few years ago and yet Tilly has riased the bar so much no our expectations are so much more. Southend traditionally have no right to be challenging for promotion in L1. We are a poor L1 to decent L2 side and its only been Tilsons efforts that have seen that perception change.
Tilson can stay as long as he wants to. If we could sign him to a 10 year deal I would.
If we finish anywhere below... say... 14th this season.
Because with the players we have, we should be higher than that. And I have absolute faith that we will be. But yeah. It's not like he hasn't moulded the squad either, they're all his players.
