Quoted from MarinerDevil
I think Hurst still needs to rebuild his EFL reputation before he can think about moving on.


His stock had fallen quite substantially when re-appointed him, hence we were able to re-appoint him. He'll still have a reputation as a 'great non-league manager, can he hack it in the league' type until he gets us promoted in the league.

We can let Hurst (and Doig) go IF we get the Cowleys to replace them

JS and AP leave all footballing matters to Hurst and don't interfere. I don't think he'll get that at FGR.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Definitely not, people moan about Hursts style of football and reputation and then ask for a like for like replacement. The Cowleys were successful at Braintree and Lincoln playing horrible football and then stepped up and failed every time. If we was in a spot we're we are looking to bring anyone in i'd personally like Neal Ardley or John Askey.

Those would be the first two that I would think of.

Cowleyball is appalling. First side I can remember in the lower leagues really taking shíthousery to extremes. Surrounding the ref, players going down holding heads, winding up opposition players, jumping up and down on the touchline and yet somehow they built up a reputation, using the BBC, of being on some fairytale story that was all lovely and rosy. I would be nothing short of amazed and disgusted if we appointed them.

Yeah I wouldn't know which one i'd rather, Askey is a bit of an unsung hero in the fact he never seems to get the credit for the jobs he's done at clubs. His sacking from York this season was outrageous and there plight since his sacking only backs that up. Obviously did unbelievable to get Macclesfield promoted and stayed loyal to them when it all went to excrement when he could of easily jumped ship. Didn't really work out after replacing Hurst at Shrewsbury and did a good job at Port Vale taking them from 20th to the next season just finishing outside the playoffs.

Why why why are we talking about Hurst leaving ?  Is it boredom ?  Isn't there any painting or gardening to do.?  We could talk about Scunny  recording their first win in about 25 years.- what an achievement.

Duncan Ferguson to be the new Village Green gaffer. Didn’t see that one coming; not exactly the person that springs to mind when you think of the phrase “raging vegan”.
