We’re so lucky to have him. We always have been. Sure, he’s a manager that requires patience as his approach is more concerned with the big picture than appeasing fans with mouth-watering signings but with time he always builds a team with a solid base and with connected personalities (and that’s enough for me considering how spectacularly bad other Town managers seem to get it).
The absolute tools who started fighting at Dagenham (because they wanted him out) must feel pretty silly now, if they have the ability to self reflect that is.

Quoted from Jarmo.Is.God
I was thinking last night about my feelings when Hurst was appointed, and hoping he kept us up, as i didn't see a return for a very long time, especially with what he had been left with.

Since PH took over in December 2020, 42 (might be slightly incorrect) players were involved in the squad from that season.
He's done some job in 1.5 seasons to tidy that up, get us promoted, and keep hold of all except 1 player from that squad that he wanted to keep.

Now looking at the future
New signings made:
Maher - 26
Orsi - 26
Wearne - 21
Glennon - 22

Very quick maths, makes our average squad age around 25, and only 4 players out of 19? over the age of 30 (Waterfall, Pearson, Scannell.. assuming signs, Taylor)

One day, he will get the recognition he deserves for this time around.
It also shows what can happen when this guy gets backed.


Didn't we also sign the Pakistani guy(sorry, can't remember his name)?

That's the one, so anyway, I can't put him in my Football Manager game just yet then.

I was looking at the list of managerial appointments in L2. There are a lot of itchy chairman with 14 appointments so far this year leaving Hurst in the group of longest-serving managers.
