Quoted from barralad


No-one outside of the club can know what targets P.H. has been set but it cannot be any more than promotion. There would be absolutely no justfication for sacking a manager who had just got us back in the league. The Trophy in that respect IS irrelevant....


JF has said a few times, the minimum he expects is play offs.  Hurst has managed that for the past 4 years, so his job is safe.  AT NO TIME has JF mentioned getting promoted.

It's the cumulative effect of signing players who were only deemed good enough to play/bench-warm in the Trophy but not good enough to get in the first team.

In business, life and footy, there comes a time when you have to ask whether a manager is capable of moving the situation forward, irrespective of what has been achieved in the past.

PH is not capable of moving it forward.

Even if he gets us promoted, he should not be rewarded for that. The question is when not if to part ways.

But getting us promoted is moving us forward.

Not if we immediately get relegated or stagnate for another 6 years.

That would happen under PH

Get a good manager like Coleman from Accrington, Still from Dagenham or Johnson from Cheltenham.

I am sick of failure

Not a big fan but surely Ronnie Moore would inject a bit of much needed energy into the club.

Though I did not like their tact tics Cheltenham impressed me at their place in that it looked like Johnson had used his experience to start building for league 2 before they had actually won the National League by building a fit, strong, bullying physical side that won't get bossed around next season.

Stranger things have happened but I cant see how he'll have a job by Monday morning if we lose. What would be the point?
Unless he's staying on for next season of course. That doesn't bare thinking about


Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong  
Update:  I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly

And you believe everything that JF says?

What he should be saying to PH is failure on Sunday means the sack.

I'll be at the trophy final, only because I've promised somebody already and I don't let people down, but I won't be happy even if we win, promotion is priority and winning the trophy will not make up for not gaining promotion, therefore it shouldn't save Hursts job

I'm not going to this tin pot final, I'm also genuinely on the verge of walking away from the club. Any club that allows it's 36 goal strikers contract to expire isn't right in the head. One of many reasons, after 32 years I've had enough.

That said, I'll be there on Sunday, I'll be behind the players and the manager until Braintree are through. Then I will turn on the illegitimates! Go on Paul, shove my words down my throat.
