In all fairness though, and I have been a critic of defensive set ups in the past - would you go 'gung ho' in the away leg of a play off semi??
Probably not, and neither should Hurst. If he organised the team to be defensively solid as a primary concern on Thursday that would surely make sense.

Besides,the results prove that Hurst gets it right away from home almost every game.

I too don't get this criticism of Parslow. He had a steady game , no frills and basically did what he had to. The player who did make me nervous was Bignot ! He never looked comfortable , his positioning was questionable at times and he got in the centre-backs way a few times. Interesting change of positions during the game between Toto and Parslow. Maybe Hurst was thinking about possible combinations IF we have to go 3 across the back ?  Whatever his reasons these things have to be at least looked at in real game situations as opposed to the training ground.

Parslow had a decent enough game and won some important headers, we did miss Pearson in defence though, Gowling is not as dominant IMO

I didn't think Parslow did that bad, I think one of his failings is when he gets too far forward he doesn't have the pace to get back.

Still prefer him to Bignot though who looked a bit dodgy at times yesterday especially that challenge in the first half in front of the Pontoon when he took an almighty swipe and missed both the ball and their forward.

Hannah had one of his best games for a while, and Chappell looked good at times certainly better than Mackreth who looked very poor.
