Quoted from tanga_the_indestructible

He did the same last week against Woking and we won comfortably.

Yes very comfortable up untill stupid made the substitution.
It wads the wrong way to go then it was the wrong way to go today.
Like I've said loads of time his negativity has copulated us up again.

interview. oh dear.

Quoted from springstomind

It's very very frustrating but I think this might teach Hurst a lesson, my radio has gone down so can't listen to the interview, please could somebody post a summary of what he says.  I still support Hurst massively and he's done very well so far, just not the right decision at the right time today, but it has worked in the past so why wouldn't he try it? Up the mariners!

Bad news......he's said he'll do it again

You flipping male private Hurst. We were winning 2-0 what sort of help did we need you member. FFS tell him to intercourse off Tondeur

Not the most likable manager by any means is he, even Alex Ferguson knew when to say as little as possible, even if he didn't think he had done something wrong

How many points do you think Hurst's negativity has cost 2 today, 2 at home to Dover, 2 at home to Nuneaton  thats 6 I can think of off the top of my head if we only had those 6 points now.

Quoted from wembley_double98

A gambler does not change a winning hand, today was like playing pontoon and twisting at 20!

It's pretty standard practice bringing on a defensive minded player for a forward when your team is winning. You see it most weeks on tv. So I think your analogy is very poor it's not as though PH did something so terrible only a madman would do it.He had to make the subsitution whether he brought the right defensive player on is another matter but I see nothing wrong with the principle of the subsitution. Had he brought on another striker and went for more goals that we didn't need then he would have deserved the criticism.

But how many times had it won us points? You can't just ignore the credit side of the ledger book and add up all the debit column.We have won a lot of games by one goal this season when those same negative  tacitics have gained us points.

The excuses he gave were cringeworthy!! "Well we might have conceded 2 goals anyway" is as lame an excuse as I can remember!! We might have held on to leads in previous games, but we were usually hanging on at the end! How can Hurst not see that it's better to aim for a third goal and finish the game off?

He needed to bring another striker on not because we needed more goals but because we were winning by 2 goals playing with 2 up top.
With playing 1 up front the ball won't stick(nothing against Pittman he's not that type of player) and will as today come straight back at ye.
Hurst is a flipping idiot.
