Isn’t Rob Scott head of recruitment at Rotherham? Would they really want to be working with each other again?

I’d like to think Hurst would stay and rebuff any approach. He has the set up he has always wanted here, the board have backed him in the transfer market and was backed by the board during the bad run we had last season when other clubs would have made a change.

Might be missing something here…. And the deal appears to be done.

But why is Warne going to Derby? Is their new owner worth a few quid?

Rotherham flirting with play offs in Championship. Derby (albeit a bigger club) the division below and no guarantee of promotion in a very competitive league.

If Rotherham decide they want him and if he goes then I'm sure we'll have done what we can to keep him. He's got a new contract, much improved infrastructure and supportive owners. And those things are why I'd be sorry to see him go but confident we'd recruit well to replace him.

Let’s get one thing straight, if Rotherham come calling he’ll be gone faster than you can say keep us shape. The question is would Rotherham want him? It’s something of a risk on a number of levels. It’s a big jump, and despite their good start you’d still expect Rotherham to have overachieved to stay up. He’s completely unproven at that level, 15 games at that basket case that was Ipswich can’t be read into. He’s an absolute legend there and appointing him risks tarnishing that legacy, who’d want to kill that mystique?

The big difference now is that we are not a basket case of a club! I think, given the backing the custodians are giving, that we would get a far better selection of candidates than we’ve ever had and (whisper quietly) may even be able to approach clubs

As others have commented,  the Club is in a strong position now across the board and moving forward at a good pace.   It has a much better reputation than in recent years.

If it came to it, the Club can absorb the loss of a very good manager.

Scott and Hurst Mark 2.

Is that realistic after the last joint debacle?

Hurst gets repeated mentions on the Rovrum forum but I think it’s this kind of sentiment, right or wrong, that would put off most Championship suitors.

Quoted Text
Hurst also has a bad record in yhe championship with ipswhich.

Did he even last a season.

So if we need promotion from league 2 or the conference he is our man

Poojah's response (as usual) is spot on.

i think the mention of Ainsworth makes far more sense. He will be ambitious and can't take Wickscum very much further. Rotherham are at least 3 times the size and he'd have a realistic chance of making them a competitive Championship side. Sign the right contract and you're made for life
