I was sat on the fence for most of the time in non league about Hurst .

When I decided he should go he got us up.

So I will wait until it's decided whether we down before I decided this time.

One thing one win in ten is terrible but he has 15 games to turn it round.

Might need a ten game unbeaten run to save us.

That might be beyond him and the team.

Quoted from davmariner
Darrell Clarke was given a chance at Bristol Rovers to take them back up at the first time of asking. Should we give Hurst a chance to take us back up?

My view is yes. Has his return been good enough so far? No. However, he took over a team in dire straits, heading only in one direct.

The blame for this season should be shouldered by Fenty and Holloway. Yes, Hurst has brought in a new team, but a makeshift one. How do you attract the calibre of players in January to turn this around? Could we have realistically attracted a better option?


Neil Woods was given a chance with us....say no more!

I honestly don't know. I've always been an advocate of continuity but the last 3 months have been a disaster. If anyone had told me at Christmas the season was going to get worse I would have laughed.
We don't have a clue what the new owners strategy will be, but in my dreams I have them putting GTFC at the heart of a regenerated town. If that's the case we definitely need a new man in charge

I think the new owners need to bring in a new manager. I'd pay the Cowleys whatever they want to come here.


The new owners have already had a say in bringing in a new manager, and his name is Hurst.

Maybe you'd like new, new owners to replace the existing new owners?

1 win in 10 is shocking that would be 4 wins in a season.

Also we have lost just about to every team in the bottom half.

Which has just about finished us.

Yes he had a transfer window to work with but with very little time to prepare for and had no time to research or cherry pick his best options. Hurst had to bolt a new 11 together in 31 days to try and improve a hopeless squad with no pre-season to work within an already a bleak position.

I think he needs a season to get it right with the best players he can get and when we do get back up keep it together.



It took him a lot longer than a season last time.

Quoted from Plankton
This might sound really stupid, but I'd say no and purely because he makes substitutes at 70-80 minutes or unless he's forced to. It's so predictable and rigid, which I think represents him. Don't get me wrong, rigid and predictable can be good, until it isn't.

That's what I used to like about Buckley (no I'm not saying bring Buckley back!), he wasn't afraid to make changes within the first 30 minutes if things weren't working.

Make your own mind up.

Holloway's last ten league games against Hurst's first ten league games;

P    W    D    L    F    A    PTS
10   3     1     6    9 - 20   10    Holloway.
10   1     1     8    5 - 16     4    Hurst.

That would have given Holloway 46 pts for the season and Hurst 18.4 pts for the season.

I rest my case.

Absolutely yes for me. Hursty's strength has always been building strong squads (when given the time for a whole pre-season) , player that play with work ethic and passion.

IF we do go down, there's nobody better at that level to rebuild us!

Nobody better? Really? Lincoln fans may have a couple of names of managers that did rather better in the NL!
