And looking down our noses at teams isn't going to get us anywhere either.


Its the 5th Tier of English Football. Theres no looking down noses. But im not for one minute going to watch us Play Bromley at home and thinking oh well we’ll lose today.

Most managers would have been sacked after this run of results.

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?



That's always assuming that you get quality applicants.I'm assuming that one of the main criteria for considering an applicant would be to show some degree of success ie a promotion or at least a play-off final.

Thought he would need 6 points this week to survive from the 3 games..  2 wins in 14 is unacceptable with squad he has available..

So he works hard. Great.

Now try and explain to me why he would replace a wide attacking player with a central midfielder when he had two more wide attackers on the bench and our shape was clearly troubling them.

We’ve had hard working managers before who’ve not been very good either (Jolley, Woods, Slade spring to mind).


None of whom took the personal abuse that some on here think is ok to aim at Hurst. The point is he wants what’s best for this club and whilst he might deserve the sack somewhere down the line he doesn’t deserve the vile comments

Two questions, based on results, have we improved since Hurst returned?
Has Hurst improved as a manager since his first appointment?
I ask the second question because he still makes the same mistakes as he did when he was here first time around and is so predictable that we are so easily exploited by other managers.

If the comment "If we dont think Grimsby Town on our Budget and fanbase should be beating Bromley at home we may as well liquidate" isn't looking down one's nose, then I frankly don't know what is. As I've said, I don't think anyone would argue that our recent form is acceptable. But I don't think ignoring the reality of the position of yesterday's opponents is remotely helpful either.

I don’t see comments any more vile than any that have been aimed at previous managers on such an appalling run.

When clubs fire managers they don’t need to place adverts, they’re bombarded with applications from every out of work coach.
In my opinion the more proactive owners see what’s coming and identify the replacement before sacking the incumbent.
