As much as I would like to agree with Luke, I carnt I have a week off and was coming back for our home game v aldershot albeit it's going to cost near £100 to attend which am happy to pay but enough is enough! We are making the same mistakes each year under hurst. If memory serves right wasn't it after the 4v1 win over barrow? That hurst then said he was planning on changing things (two 4v1 wins) what happens he changes it and we lose to altringham who had not even scored up till they played us.... Now 3 games later he has changed it every game and we ain't got anything to show from it.


Time is up for me we either change it soon and get rid of him or come December (normal sacking time for us) our season could be on survival not even the play offs

Am sure that almost all Hurst out posters on here will still back the team 100% at games.  I know at stages last season when I thought Hurst should go and didn't have faith in him, I said so on here, but I never once booed or slammed him or a player during a game.  Am sure most posters will be the same and will back the team this weekend as passionately as ever.  Hopefully the team will respond this time and a lot of the doom will lift, but don't doubt for a second that, while moaning will go on here, our fans will carry on in the manner we have been.

Of course you are entitled to your opinion and rightly so, but we've been reading similar posts these past 5 years and nothing has changed, and you want to waste another season if he doesn't get us promoted.


Plenty has changed. We've gone from being a mid table side for the first two years town here to serious promotion contenders. We've gone from having a big squad of players who don't care about the club to a small squad who have built a great relationship with the fans. We've gone from terrible gates to having the most season ticket sales for 17 years. We've gone from games being a terrible experience with no atmosphere to being enjoyable again. Yes we haven't achieved our ultimate goal but we've come as close as possible. Give it time.

FFS - give it time? Have you not read Mr Fenty's various assertions regarding the club's financial future?

If things have changed it has been more due to the fans than to performances on the field. The impetus began in the stands not the dressing room. All those away fans deserve more than a medal, they deserve promotion - even if the manager doesn't.

They already have five more wins than us after 7 games. What makes you think they will suddenly implode?

What makes you think they won't? It's unlikely, but we're only a fraction of the way through the season so we don't know what's going to happen yet.

As I recall, Newport were 10 points clear at the top the other season by the start of October. They finished in 3rd place, just 2 points above us.

Best replace a manager with a track record of getting us in the playoffs and take a gamble on someone else then. While we're at it we'd better buy him a new squad and pay off the players he doesn't fancy. That will help the club's finances. FFS

True enough.

I do feel that FGR have a bit of a Crawley and Fleetwood type feel to them though. They are paying big bucks and if managed properly, they shouldn't slip up.
