Let the rumours begin ..

Quoted from ginnywings

Why do so many rumours involve ex players?

Because your average lower league football fan, myself included, knows relatively little about the pool of players around the fourth and fifth tiers of English football. It’s hard to speculate about someone you’ve never heard of in your life.

One thing that’s always impressed me about Hurst is his knowledge of players around this level. At times that can come across as overthinking about the opposition, but it does at the very least show that he does his homework.

You only have to look at the GTFC ex players thread  .........321 pages of it . Obsessed or what ?

tbf Zak Mills is slightly different, having been with Hurst at Boston, when he was a youth player and was subsequently signed by Hurst for us. If he hadn't had that season with us , you'd think it was a possible, given he's previously lived in the region and has been a solid right back at League 2 level.
Interesting that he had been a regular for Vale until he got injured - he's the sort of player that Hurst has gone for in the past - is obviously a solid League 2 player, who's suffered from injury. Weren't Tait, Robertson, Magnay and Andrew of similar ilk?
certainly wouldn't be unhappy if Hendrie left and he was the replacement.
I'll sling 3 names in - Abu Ogogo - real midfield leader at Bristol Rovers who he had as his captain at Shrewsbury
i wouldn't be surprised to see Alex Rodman pitch up from the Gasheads
And just 1 wild card. Abu Eisa's contract at Scunny is nearly up. If they are cutting costs, then could he be tempted by returning to play for Hurst just down the road,with a half decent contract?

Here's a list of all League 2 players whose contract ends in June. There's some bluddy good players in there

rumour is that Green went today as well.

Hearing there might be some changes and departures behind the scenes as well

Have you cross-checked your rumour against an A1 source? Like Fills Notches.

Let's hope one of them is the fitness coach that Ollie said was the best he had ever worked with. I don't think we have ever had so many injuries in a season. I also think Ben Davies has had no real influence on players either

Didn’t Hollowhead also say this was the best run club he had worked at! If that guy walked in a room, soaking wet and said it was raining outside I would still look out the window to check. As the American Indians used to say in the old Western films " white man speak with forked tongue".

Agree. Yes man. Good at carrying the clipboard though

I liked Mills, was a typical solid RB without being spectacular.

The problem at RB for me, is we've never replaced Tait, who was far too good for non-league anyway
