If we get to the play-off's I have no confidence in Hurst being tactical good enough to get us promoted. That's why I will not be going to Wembley if we get there, the disappointment will be bad enough not being there, being there will be totally depressing.
I hope I am wrong, but I can't see it.

I understand your problems but please reconsider if we get there. The more fans we have behind the players in that situation the better our chances are. I'd hate to have less there to create an amazing atmosphere as last year. Let's be honest despite the final result the players were energised by the atmosphere last year and we were unlucky not to win. The disappointment sucks but just imagine if we cheer them on to victory. |

How were we unlucky not to win? We played better than Bristol Rovers, but we didn't beat them. How is that unlucky? That's failing to get the job done in my book. |

You're going (if we somehow get there). I'm not driving myself down there. I need my chauffeur. |

Come on, let's not be unfair. We lost a playoff final on penalties after a good performance. Maybe we should've 'gotten the job done', but anyone who wasn't proud of true fans, the atmosphere and the effort of the players isn't being fair. |

excellent post bigdog
for me Hurst has to go and JF and the directors have to be strong and they can change the season.
Hursts recent outbursts have been ill informed.
we should be spoilt, in fact we should be more spoilt and be challenging for the title.
as fans who do not have the knowledge. ok there are always comedy posters but many managers have only played to a level that is below that of GTFC. Jose Mourinho , is a prime example.
The original tinker man seems to have learnt his lesson at Leicester and players at the current level we are at will be inconsistant, if not they would not be playing for our beloved GTFC,
But they need games and support to hit their form and as aplayer it must be incrediblt soul destroying when loan players come in who do not add anything to the main 11.
thank you PH you come accross as a decent bloke and have done your best but i am afraid Rob Scott is right i do not believe we will ever get promotion with you. Teams should be worried about playing GTFC and you should not be changing our team to accomodate them.
this is a division we should be winning most games.

I don't doubt any of that, but we failed. How we failed is irrelevant. We failed. A great manager finds a way to succeed. A lesser manager finds a way to fail. |

Right, but knowing that our chances are greater with a loud, large crowd surely we should take away any personal vendettas and get behind the boys in a potential final. I'm not arguing for or against Hurst right now so his greatness is irrelevant! |

I think it was particularly unlucky that the ref decided not to send the Bristol keeper off. |
