He won’t be going anywhere will he.

That’s not to say he shouldn’t but the owners appear content to ‘rebuild’. I’m not sure many of us have such limited ambition.

We should have been well up for today after Bromley’s antics in the away game which started this slump
I’m afraid I have moved into this camp now and want a change
but with a warning of be careful what you wish for
Who would we have?
Look at the bad run of managers we have had since he left last time ?

He's a manager under no pressure whatsoever and he knows it.

He loves this 'long-term' project nonsense.

He failed last season and should never have been allowed to continue - and now he's close to having signed 40 players in just 12 months, of which the vast majority of them are not up to the standard required - and it will be the same again in the summer.

More long-term nonsense, more "give the players time to gel", blah blah blah.

2 wins in 14 is completely unacceptable.

He has to go.

Quoted from kafunanapar140909
I’m not quite anti-Hurst yet, BUT a lot does depend on our next 7 matches, until the end of Feb. In that time we play 5 of the current bottom 7 teams (with Wrexham and Notts C thrown in). If we win those (as we ought to), then even if Wrexham and Notts beat us we should be well-placed to ultimately consolidate a play-off spot. If we struggle against Wealdstone/King’s Lynn/Aldershot/Southend/Dover then we’d be looking at one hell of a challenge to even get in the play-offs. If a club of our size can’t finish in the top 7 of this league then, regardless of long-term plans, that would be a massive disappointment.


Good point. I think that failure to see off those bottom teams you list  will probably mean we miss out on the playoffs.

In my view getting into the playoffs is make or break for Hurst. If we finish lower than 7th I think he needs to go. He has really done nothing of note results wise since leaving Shrewsbury.

My gut feeling at the beginning of the season was that we couldn’t appoint better then Hurst. After not being overly fond of the initial appointment.

I now disagree with this and feel there must be better out there.

Tough times for all involved


Sleep well Icey, Matty and Richard. Keep each other company up there xx

I told Hurst to burn the unlucky  green Goalie kit  but no goalie wears it and we lose again. Should be Hurst and dodgy kit out.

Did we think we'd go up this year?

Unfortunately we were always going to have to consolidate this year, we changed our whole team...

Chesterfield are throwing money at it, same with Wrexham, and any money we make goes to our ex Chairman. It'll take a few years for whoever is in charge...

Quoted from lukeo
For me IF there's genuinely someone possibly available to us who we 100% believe will improve on PH then I agree. Otherwise im sitting tight just for a few more games.
Admittedly I didn't go today nor do I go often being an exile.


Yes I'm in the same place - I haven't seen the team live enough to feel qualified to comment too much but I think I know that Clifton is our most energetic midfielder - if he's fit he needs to be on the pitch at all times. I also was puzzled with Abrahams starting ahead of Sousa when he'd only had hours with the club. Putting McAtee out wide - I don't get that at all seems a very strange decision with two wingers sitting on the bench. Starting to worry, maybe late to that party compared to those who see every game...
