Quoted from TownSNAFU5
Macca hasn't been at the top of his game for 3/4 seasons.  Yes, he was poor at times last season and maybe the managerial changes and uncertainty did not help him.  

He must have been affected by Henderson playing so well.

He will surely benefit from direct competition. And hopefully get back to his very best form.



But when he had competition , in Henderson, he spit his dummy out when the competition was preferred to him !! Macca was quite good non-league and is a reasonably capable lower League 2 keeper but if we want promotion to League 1 then we must get a better keeper. If we do, then how will Macca react ? Past evidence shows that he can't handle being second choice and he will probably throw a wobbler again.

I got the impression from the infamous Stevenage interview plus that one on MP yesterday showed that it was probably more to do with Bignot than Henderson if truth be told. I think there was a total communication breakdown, the conflicting interviews at Stevenage proved that, he was all fishy. That never happened with Hurst and I suspect RS is a good enough manager to get the best out of Macca more consistently.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Hurst gave complete 100% backing to Macca, season after season but he still was liable to poor mistakes on a regular basis. Nothing to do with who ever managers him, a decent keeper but we need better if we want to progress.

A No:1 keeper is top priority in the next few weeks


Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Has he been given time to achieve promotion by the chairman and fans? Yes

Hurst out

I did say "on a regular basis"
Good keepers make less mistakes than average keepers

A good keeper is a No1 priority if you want promotion!
