Difference could be that Hurst has children.  I don't think Jolley does.  Much easier to up sticks when you don't have kids.

Shrewsbury forum calling him from anus to breakfast time, poison dwarf etc for last minute poaching attempts of Toto and Nolan.
What a difference a season makes.

Toto and Nolan on the way I can see Ipswich conceding a few with him in the back four at that level surely it`s a step up too far even with his pace? Nolan will do fine though.

Some on here thought L2 was going to be a step too far and he was apparently one of the best CB’s in the L1 last season. I would trust Hurst’s judgement more than any other manager we’ve had in my lifetime (more than Jolley at the moment I’d say even). He worked a minor miracle even getting Shrewsbury to the play off final last season. He does need to succeed with Ipswich though, he doesn’t want to be getting himself a reputation as a nearly man.


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

I think both could struggle at Championship level. Then again I thought the same about them in L1 so what do I know!

Toto is a fine player IMHO albeit he does have flaws than can and will be exploited by better players he excelled last Season but the quality of forwards in the Championship I feel will rip him apart.Mcarthy had a good run at Ipswich and they have always been noted for giving their manager time PH will do alright.

So, young defenders apparently can't improve in 2 years? He certainly had the physical attributes to be a Championship-level player. No reason he can't develop to be a decent one, though Premier League will probably be out of his reach.

Did anyone think Simon Francis would play in the Prem?

I doubt it - still can't believe he does! Especially as he looked to cumbersome to be a full-back when playing for us.

Eight pages dedicated to Ipswich Town in this mornings local rag, seven of them 100% Hurst, they think the sun shines out of him! Not sure Knudsen and a couple of others he has openly slagged off would agree.

They're even giving away free Hurst masks at the first game tomorrow, there isn't one cupping his ear unfortunately. The local wurzels will have to wait a while, get on his back and then they'll see him in a different light unless of course he leaves them for a better offer.

Hurst is definitely in for Kayden Jackson, Toto and Nolan, one more ex Mariner and I can start watching the Tractor Boys as they'll be Town reserves
