If you had a point, you ruined it with that crass remark at the end.
We’ve all taken jobs we didn’t really fancy to be closer to home, it happens

We have last season to judge Hurst on his January shopping skills 😂

Hurst said in the summer that he wanted to recruit players with the right attitude. To me, he could and should have moved nearer to the club, that would have shown the right attitude and a good example. If I were a player, I’d expect the manager to be setting that example. It’s a bit ‘do as I say, not as I do’.

Something has gone drastically wrong since the great start, alas we'll probably never know what.
19 wins out of 100, perhaps says a lot.
Scoring goals like it was a practice game, to this.
Can it be turned around, not sure but Something has to change, no expert so not sure what.
Personaly just go for it no and again, if the style is play for a draw that often bites you.
Substitution at 80ish minutes are doing my head in though.
I can but hope we turn it around

Personally I’ve no idea as to why our performance has dropped off a cliff. Think that’s for others with more information, knowledge and experience to assess.
Good job Arsenal didn’t sack Arteta when Arsenal were hopeless. I’m not saying hurst is arteta. I’m making the point that sacking people is not always the answer.
At the moment I am keeping my spending money in my pocket and betting on Grimsby to lose. Not really but always look on the bright side.

It certainly is a strange time. We were flying and now this, both under Hurst, the good and the bad. Nobody can deny that losing 7 in 8 is absolutely horrific but I still do not think Hurst needs to be sacked. I really feel like that is an unnecessary step backwards at this point. With little or no benefit to immediate matters.
Some things Hurst does absolutely wind me up, but I honestly find myself agreeing with his rationale more often than not. To the post that mentioned him living an hour away... I live 45 minutes away and attend every home game and believe me I am town through and through, so not really sure I follow your point on that one.
One thing is for sure, hounding JS on twitter calling him clueless and demanding he sacks PH is absolutely despicable. Another thing for sure is you'll see me at the next home game and the one after that and so on. UTM. This can just as quickly turn the other way. Keeps your heads on.

Your attitude has nothing to do with where you live. I'm sure there are plenty of people on this forum who live in Grimsby but work in Hull, Lincoln, Sheffield or Leeds. Maybe their bosses should tell them they are being sacked if they don't move closer to their office?

I don’t doubt that you are town through and through but you have a connection, Mr Hurst does not, he’s a bit of a legend in Rotherham and rightly so but he has no true connection with GY, remember the cupped ears. He’s too stuck in his ways and not flexible enough to be a modern manager, I hope like everyone else he turns it round but I just don’t see it

You’re a fan. The manager is asking players to buy into the club, create a new culture etc. yet he can’t be bothered to move nearer. It cuts both ways.
