Quoted from Les Brechin
I see that he was on loan at Wrexham in 2018 so I asked their fans views on him.

A bit of a mixed view really.

Nice try, but it is very rare for other teams fans to praise players who turn up signing for rivals.

When he turns out to be a fantastic player (we hope) make sure you go back on their site and rub their noses in it, especially when he crosses for Pearson to head home the goal that clinches promotion as that would really wind them up.

Other fans can often give a very broad view, I guess it depends when those players featured within their time frames.

Take someone like Billy Clarke, no doubt decent but in truth he played for GTFC under the most embarrassing manager ever, during a woeful time.

Take Andy Parkinson, played well, not the worst but not the best but is often thought of fondly because we had a good season…all swings and round abouts.

Let’s face it, Lincoln fans were pretty unanimous in their views of Nolan…and how wrong were they?

I get your point, but who has said Billy Clarke was anything other than good for us? Also that season we looked like we'd become a good side. It was Covid that started the shambles.

If fans of other teams unanimously say somebody is excrement then they tend to be right, if it's mixed then it really is a flip of a coin at this level especially. There's enough about him previously to suggest we have a chance of unlocking some great potential there and he's still only 24.

On Clifton switching back to CM, I wouldn't be so sure. We have a very talented winger in Bapaga who is being kept out the XI by Clifton at the minute and I think Hurst likes the apparent 'balance' Clifton will give us.

I don't agree with it, in fact I think playing Clifton LW and not CM is part of our issues going forward recently. However, I've seen enough of Hurst over the years to suggest this may be a genuine plan for Clifton, after all, Hurst was the creator of the disaster that was the 'lob-sided midfield' a few years back

To be fair, there’s probably a plethora of players under the likes of Bignot and Jolley that were probably much better than we’ll ever remember…

Don’t forget that  McAtee was said to have been very lazy at Scunny. I take it that he was.  How he was managed.  He is completely different with us.

I'm not really bothered how good or bad players have been with previous clubs. To me as long as they give their best every time in a black and white shirt is all you can ask. We've seen over the years those with good reputations not perform for us and those with bad ones, McAtee now, perform very well.

It's all about getting the best out of them which Hurst, on the whole, seems to do.

Sounds like he has great potential but I hope in this case fans being unanimous isn't correct in one aspect as he sounds like a bit of a home bird. Just saying what every Wrexham fan noticed about him
