What is happening with our neighbours  Sacking the manager after a fallout with Swan and I think I can see why. Swan is demanding a clear out so they cut their cloth accordingly, which they are continuing today with the sale of Lee Novak. Strong rumours of Matthew Lund and Kevin Van Veen leaving before 11pm tonight and seemingly no replacements being brought in. Hammill, Wootton gone and the loan players recalled. Hurst stated that they only had 3 strikers on the books and with Novak leaving leaves them very weak up top. I understand their need to cut the wage bill but they have to stay competitive also. Might find that they could get drawn into a relegation battle baffling but fun |

According to Swan Hurst was told to cut the budget at the start of the season ,
At Christmas they had 5 more players not less .
Swan also said he can not talk about why he sacked Hurst so that was not the reason,
Going to talk to Peterborough might have sealed Hurst's future.

Well I have to be honest and say that their demise is certainly amusing. But I would still much rather Stevenage go out of the league myself. Maybe next year though Scunny |

I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football'  |

Sone seriously worrying quotes from Swan in this article (if you were a Scunny fan, of course): https://www.grimsbytelegraph.c.....-swann-hurst-3797430Irrespective of what we do, I think their era of superiority over us is at its end.
How poor is the local journalism that even when they take quotes direct from Radio Humberside, they manage to mess it up, by frequently attributing Swann quotes to Hurst in that article?!?!?! Shocking. I listened to Swann; apparently everything is Hurst's fault, Swann is far more intelligent than all the Scunny fans on Twitter and he cant say anything but its him who knows best........ |

Era of superiority? Why how long has that been? If only there was someone who could inform us 🤔. Does seem to have gone strangely quiet on that front - and long may it continue UTMM |

Swan probably actually making a pure business decision...I imagine he feels with only 1 place up for relegation and Macc and Oldham looking very dodgy that regardless of how poor they are they will survive so may as well off load and cash in now to save budget for next seasons manager. He realises chucking money at a plss poor supported club is not sustainable |
