Quoted from Grantley
yeah, putting up a 'Hurst Out' banner halfway through a playoff semi, why on earth would he want to cup his ears?


Yep, it's fine to tarnish the final for thousands of fans because one person put up a banner. Unless he spotted the person in the crowd and aimed it only at him.
I think it was a lesson in professionalism - ie, what not to do. I doubt Hurst will react like that in future under similar circumstances. I think he'll show more class, composure and perspective. If he does progress to management of a big club at league one or championship level he'll have to learn to deal with expectation, criticism, pressure and derision - on a much grander scale than at Town, so good luck to him and I'm sure he'll do well.

Well, if you stick a tenner on him to be Ipswich manager tonight, you will be in profit by a quid.

Quick update on the competition... nine people correctly guessed Fulham & Rotherham to win and they are:

sonofmadeleymariner (Exeter)
GTFC42 (Exeter)
Abdul19 (Coventry)
The Old Codger (Coventry)
Les Brechin (Coventry)
chaos 33 (Coventry)
penrith mariner (Exeter)
Kingston Mariner (Exeter)
PrestwichMariner (Coventry)

If Exeter win then sonofmadeleymariner takes the playoff crown for being the first to submit the correct predictions. Likewise, if Coventry win then Abdul19 is the playoff king.

Unless you each want to predict the time of the first goal as a tiebreaker?

I’d wonder if certain people had an agenda if that managed to tarnish the final for them.

I did not see this thread until after Fulham had won so did not enter,

I did pick Fulham to win though and also Rotherham,

I can not get 3 right out of 3 so I am going for Coventry to win,

That's because I really want Exeter to go up.

2,000 Coventry fans at the park next season or less than 200 Exeter .

No contest.

If hundreds of people gave you dogs abuse (to the level he got at Halifax) just for doing what you thought was right in your job wouldn't you take the opportunity to push back a bit?
