Quoted from barralad

This was underlined when Paddy gave away a free kick in a dangerous position by dabbing a foot in with all the conviction of Danny La Rue on tranquilisers when he finally came on.

Just seen the highlights, what a killer finish for the goal, hope that's not a fluke because that was real quality.

Sick of this nonsense. Hurst is trying to win the league and I would fuccking love us to win the league. I have the club badge tattooed on my arm and crave league football just as much as anyone else. But it is wilful ignorance to not recognise that there are at least 5 other sides competing for top spot, several of which have bigger budgets than us and have more advantageous geographical locations. We should absolutely be challenging with them for promotion. But on what basis do you demand that we win it and consider anything else failure? Budget? Attendances? Bristol Rovers kick our bottom on both counts. Don't try to paint me as someone who cares less or doesn't mind if we lose in the playoffs. I am as passionate as any other Town fan but I will not apologise for the fact that I am capable of taking in to account more factors than just how much I hate being out of the league. UTFM


Exactly right, well put

He is on five, he got yellows against-
Gateshead, Alfreton, Aldershot, Halifax and Kiddy.

He was not booked against Gateshead. Check FA site, bbc and press assoc. got it wrong.

Fair enough, I stand corrected.

Very well put - spot on mate!
This attitude that we MUST win the league is creating stupid expectations
Sure, I expect us to be in and around top 5 and then you need that bit of luck with injuries, suspensions etc to lift you over the line

I would think Barnet, Kiddy, Torquay, Bristol, Halifax, Gateshead and Wrexham (to name but SEVEN) will think they could win the league and quite rightly so

It's that competitive we could play really well from here on in and not quite make the play offs

We have a great history, we were a Division One club a few years back, we have great support, we won at Wembley twice, we've reached two FA Cup semi finals...but it counts for nothing on a wet Wednesday at Dartford

Get real folks!

So is Toto only on 3 yellows? - Big Chris says that there was no yellow at Aldershot and Grantham Mariner says there was no yellow at Gateshead - if so - GOOD!

Sick of this nonsense. Hurst isnt trying to win this league and I would fookin love us to win the league eg in his interview after the game he pointed out how many points we were off a playoff spot and not how many point we were from top spot.
I have my kids names tattooed on my arm.
Its obvious that there are other teams competing for top spot, thats what its all about.
Not saying you are someone who cares less or doesn't mind if we lose the playoffs or that your not as passionate as any one else what I'm saying is yes I demand we have the ambition to win the league and anything else is a lack of ambition.
I dont really give a toss about what other clubs have got, this is another one of Hursts biggest problems as a manager hes so bothered about what our opponents have instead of concentrating on what we have.    


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

To say he's not trying to win the league is ridiculous. Of course he will want to win the league but ultimately, when only one automatic spot is available, the play offs shouldn't be considered a failure, it still gives us a shot at going up.
