Most tenuous Grim Reaper claim yet!

Is t it afc fylde that have been on some ludicrous run of winning since the turn of the year?

I thought York would be Hursts next job had he not had the Shrewsbury connection come up

Honestly can’t remember either of them. That’s either because they are unremarkable (or dross), or, I’m old and my mind has gone. Or both.

Burgess was incredibly forgetful, non-entity of a central midfielder who fitted the Hurst mould in that position of only looking remotely involved in a 3-man set up but that's as good as it gets. Spared the indignity of the worst midfielder of that season by Joey Jones.

Crookes on the other hand was a very, very solid and dependable left-back, started the season and was only when Amos arrived that he fell out the team. Didn't get forward much but, in my opinion, was a big factor in the success of Efete down that right hand side.

He was very capable and happy to drifit across to form a back three when Efete went mauraduing forward, which really lessened the risk of a great attacking outlet in the first half of that season.

Perhaps not good enough for League Two but I've thought all season that we've lacked that type of full-back, someone who will stay back and let the other side attack. Instead we largely had Glennon and Mullarkey who both wanted to attack constantly, which left us with a back 2. To add to the mix a back 2 who lack pace so didn't have the ability to cover exposed positions very well.
