I am not for one minute thinking you are the decision maker in this process I just thought as a town fan you might offer an opinion on who you would like to see as our replacement for hurst.

It’s fine you want to sit on fence and say advertise it and let the board decide .... nice insight and then 6 months down the line when it fails you can scream I didn’t want him either.





Why is advertising a job sitting on the fence?

You use a recruitment process to get the best person for the role why would you do it differently?

Jesus wept, you are mistaking a fan’s opinion for the boards approach.

Of course the board should take this method in appointing a manager. What I am asking for is who would you like to see as the next manager !! Is it that hard to comprehend? Offer an opinion as oppose just saying sack him.

Sorry I’m just struggling to see how this random set of stats is relevant….


Quoted from davmariner


He’s full of random and irrelevant comparisons is Golly. I might just compare the second half of the 1912 season to the second half of the 2013 season just to prove a point…


Sorry, but how difficult is it to understand? If you give somebody a job to do and give them all the tools they want and need to perform that job to a high standard then you expect them to out perform a bloke who did the job previously but with only half the tools.

We’re so much more professional now than we were back then, that level of professionalism should be reflected in the results the manager achieves.

Wether your a Hurst in or out the results in general since he's been appointed haven't been good enough, he had plenty of time to save us from relegation last season but we never looked up for it.

This season apart from6a freakish start we have been pretty shite tbh, we always are looking for a striker when he's in charge we never have ever had a settled strike force.

The whole way we are going is just not good its as simple as that and it's all good having nice food now on a matchday and fancy containers were you can have a beer but if it carries on like this then the new owners have a decision to make and an urgent one before the playoffs have gone already.

I don’t have a choice as I don’t know enough about anyone who might be suitable or interested.

A few months ago, I wrote on this forum that reappointing Hurst was a risk because of the fact that he was, and is, disliked by a significant portion of the fanbase. The consequences of that risk are clear from scrolling through this thread. For the record, I am not about to join the calls for Hurst's removal. But I do accept there is an argument for a change, even if I don't necessarily agree with it.

It seems to me that the argument about current form (which I don't think anyone will dream of suggesting is acceptable, by the way) feeds into a much more fundamental question about our expectations as a fanbase for this season. When we first dropped to this level in 2010, I said I would be delighted to get back up inside five years and, frankly, I have a similar view now. I think the argument for replacing Hurst is most persuasive if one believes that anything less than a playoff place this season is failure. I don't take that view and, if the impression I have been given of the owners' view is accurate, I don't believe they will either at the moment.

Having been a supporter of PH, I too am questioning if his position is tenable. That said I am always frustrated when the start is dismissed. PH was the manager in September as well as December.

I’m not going to disagree with a lot of what you’ve written but surely it frustrates you when the likes of Bromley come and ‘do’ us like they did yesterday.

Something isn’t right when the squad that took us to the top of the league is now being dismantled and rebuilt.

I’m basing that on what I’ve heard at away games in particular and in the Pontoon. You might think so, but the fans are starting to turn on Hurst.


That's hardly a reason to say that the majority of fans want him out.
