Scunny have today won their appeal to have van Veen's red card rescinded.

So if it’s rescinded are the powers that be saying the ref got it wrong, the consequences for scunny were quite severe, possibly ensured they lost the game that resulted in the sacking the manager. I know we have all suffered at the hands of crap refs, but do the league give them a slap on the wrist for being useless.

I don’t know if there’s such a thing as an ‘unlucky manager’, but Hurst always had an uncanny knack of things going against him at crucial times.

Ian Miller’s late own goal in our first play-off game against Newport. Macca throwing one in against Gateshead the following year, followed by Scott Neilson’s ridiculous red card. THAT yellow card against Rovers. The Pope’s penalty which went into outer space. All things he could do nothing about.

Maybe it’s a question of outlook. Positive things happen to positive people.

I like your last sentence, that a mantra I live by but Hurst was a bit spawny at Braintree and dare I say it with Operation Promotion providing him Omar Bogle

(although officially it didn't help pay for him and was a big thorn in the heirachys behind 🙄)

in this instance i am sure the FA would use the fact the player overreaction to the contact misled the referee as opposed to the referee actually making a mistake and needing some re-training.

My Scunny supporting mate tells me that Swann has said there was a complete breakdown in the relationship between Hurst and him over the proposed signing of one Lennell John Lewis. Player came and failed his medical so Swann says the deal is dead and Hurst insisted he wanted to bring him in anyway. Swann says we’ve got enough injured players without buying one who’s already crocked and PH spat his dummy out.

I’m only passing on what I’ve been told......
