After the first few months of this new season, Hurst's team self depricating, bigging up the opposition, non performances and mono tone I can't see him making it to Christmas. How long will Mrs Wilkinson allow her heritage to be wasted by Swann before she has had enough.

His percentage football was boring to watch 90% of the time, and under him we never looked like a team with the bit between the teeth going for it, we always looked like a team happy to tread water once we got into the shallow end of a pool.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

We should relish being the underdogs in this. Hurst will have one of his 5 non-scoring strikers up front and the top scorer rested for being too good. His rip roaring winger will be told to not venture 5 yards beyond the halfway line in order to keep us shape.

Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Say what you like about Hurst, but he has an excellent record of getting teams into the play offs when he has a decent budget, and that’s fact.
I’m not speaking as a fan of his particularly, but those mocking him might reserve ridicule for a bit as Scunthorpe  will doubtless have a bigger budget than us and seem, to my mind, to be much more likely to be challenging at the top end than we do.

Right on both counts, but I reckon the Hurst bigging up the opposition thing is accurate. We've all heard him do it here. He sent his team out to play with trepidation and caution. That held us back and unless he's changed the same will happen with Scunny.
