There he is, at the top of league one, with a bunch of players that were criticised by a bunch on here in the conference, and he's still getting stick for being 'dull in interviews' and 'not praising the fans'.

You couldn't make it up. If you can't see that he was good for this football club and just accept that he's a good manager, then you're a bit daft and blind to the facts.

What's this obsession with praising the fans anyway?? Firstly, he did praise the fans a lot, but people choose to ignore it. Secondly, who gives a intercourse about being praised???

Who is so insecure in themselves that they need constant assurance that they're a "good" football fan?  


Looking forward to a brighter future now Fenty has gone.

Not so much needing praise but being told along the lines of  "you dont understand the game" and "we have been spoilt" is rather patronising.

He hasn't won anything yet and if I remember correctly there must have been a time when he had us first or second in the National League early on in the season.

Hurst knows the dame inside out and his teams will always be organised,

BUT

He let himself down while with us by calling one or two fans moaning at him from the main stand but not praising the great support he got from the thousand of others,

His pre and post match interviews were as dull as ditch water,

Will he get promoted with Shrewsbury ?

I don't care I am glad he is not here at least Bignot gave us a laugh at the interviews and Slade talks a lot of sense.



Sorry to disagree but I am sure there were plenty of games where we didn't look organised and who is this woman he knows very well?

We were 1st until March in 2013 and we got to second in March 2015, 1 point behind Barnet.

A couple of comments aimed at a couple of morons and it's all anyone ever focuses on. I remember the Halifax interview and I clearly remember him stressing it was only a minority and praising the majority of fans, but people seem to forget that.

I imagine he was referring to the types of fans that hung up a Hurst Out banner over the motorway a couple of days before he got us promoted.

The point is he is currently at a more successful (recent) club than ours, In the league above. Yet some are adamant he's not very good or some insecure people are glad to be rid of him because he didn't praise them enough.

Hurst got us back into the FL and for that I'll be forever grateful to him.

A lot of fans thought we had a divine right to be back in the league - and I agree, it should've been our aim - but just look where Stockport, York and Torquay are (not forgetting Darlington, Hereford, etc). It could've got so much worse if we'd had a manager who didn't handle our situation correctly.

Yes, Hurst had some faults (who doesn't) but, all things considered, he's a good manager and I'm sure he'll enjoy some level of success at whichever club he manages.
