Quoted from Chrisblor
Will probably be absolutely fine if a quarter of the fan base don't sit around moaning about him cupping his ear and leaving us for Shrewsbury all the flipping time.


Cupping the ear lacked class really, he had the chance to rise above it and let the promotion shut his critics up.

On the whole I thought he was unfairly criticised.  He didn't have the biggest budget and the anger of the fans was really stoked by a massive fall from grace and year after year of mismanagement of the club.

There would be one or two others I'd prefer - but I doubt they'd come.  I think he's as good as we'll get in our present situation.

29% don’t want the only manager that has brought us sustained challenging and success. You couldn’t make this crap up.

They’ll be on the consortiums backs from day one for choosing what they think is another gash manager 😂😂

Can’t wait to see him back in the hot seat and it was wonderful to know he was back at Blundell Park tonight.

Was Josh Gowling there too? If he was, only logical reason is he's already agreed to be Hurst's numero two.

Yes I wondered that too, unless he was there to have a look at players that might be released this window and might do a job for Hereford.

I'm 50-50 on this one.  
A) We have new owners and a new history to make. We can have a complete clean sweep, and chance for fresh blood with new ideas and contacts.  

B)  We are very close to relagation places with a poor squad, I would trust Hurst to bring in some quality players to stop the rot and avoid the drop.

Going with my heart I would say no.  Going with my head I would say yes.

Think the cupped ear was purely the massive relief after all the pressure he was under. I can give him a pass on that whole incident as he bought us one of the finest squads we have had in literally a decade and of course the coveted promotion. We need a trusted steady at the wheel at this time of change for the club so I think he is a pretty decent appointment honestly. Welcome back Paul!
