Tiled onto chipboard floor

Post by stocks1j »

Hi guys, I'm hoping this isn't going to be a disaster but I've just finished tiling a bathroom floor directly onto "Green chipboard"
The floor space is only 2m x 1.5m and the tiles are 200x200mm so fairly small.
Are these just going to crack up in future or do we think they could be OK?
I ploughed ahead without really fully mulling it all over.

What sort of tile adhesive did you use?

If so, it doesn't say that's it's flexible so, yes, you may have future problems.
