I think great might be stretching it. He had a strike force of Amond and Bogle in the National League and managed a 4th placed finish behind part-time Braintree.


Did you have a Great time at the play off final v FGR ?

Bit of a dud CV for Hurst now....sacked from his last 2 jobs through abject failures..think it could be a while before he gets another go with a league club.
Makes you wonder what manager would take Scunny on now, Swanns track record at sacking managers could really have hampered their chances of even surviving in the league...well ain't that a sh!tter...

Listened to his post match last night and he was having a right chunter at his thin squad, saying he was having to put under 23's in the match day squad and he had no option but to keep playing the same players every game. Aye, just as we have for a while Paul.He sounded right cheesed off so it's no surprise he's gone. Could have jumped or been pushed. Neither would be a surprise.

Like Slade, he started off at Scarborough and he is from the north. But he has just moved to a new place in Cornwall hasn’t he? I know Ollie has but would  Warnock uproot to work for Swann? He might for a Yorkshire club though.


Heard him say that he is having a lot of building work done through the next few months so his wife would be pleased if he got a job away from the area. So given he played for them wouldn’t be the biggest surprise to see him put in a short stint with the Scunts.

"Sports Talk"....Hurst was sacked.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

He not a bad manager, but he has managed Boston, Town, Shrewsbury, Ipswich and the Scunts and very few fans at any of those clubs have a good word to say about him.

Thankfully this didn't happen in December, otherwise Ollie might be their boss now!

If they appoint someone like Adkins or Warnock then Hurst really will be spitting feathers. Nobody of that calibre would go there without budget guarantees from Swann.

I listened to Hurst's moan about his budget, small squad etc. and he had exactly the same moans at Grimsby, at Shrewsbury and at Ipswich. In each case he knew exactly what the situation was when he took the new job, but he only moaned when things went pear shaped. Which perhaps says more about him than the clubs he's managed.

Swanny seemingly losing the plot according a Scunny supporting mate.

He wasn’t Hurst’s biggest fan but he thinks this is a bizarre move.

The way town fans rejoice when something negative happens to Hurst is odd to say the least but hey ho...

My nephews mate is a Scunt and he's glad Hurst has gone. Fans haven't taken to him at all he said. Seems a bit premature to me if he's been sacked but maybe he had too much to say in public about the budget. Chairmen don't like that.
