Quoted from Hagrid


Are you allright?

He kept 2 up top today and went for it. Pyke missed a glorious chance and it wasnt until we went back to a 1 up top that we got control of the game again.


Jesus, over a dozen games into the season and he goes with 2 up front, may aswell call him the new Arrigo Sacchi. Football is a result business, not a game of if, buts or maybes. It's going to be another season of floating around mid-table, I'm aware alot of fans are very happy with that and content thinking that they owe Hurst something (and I don't know why). Won't get relegated under Hurst, but nor will we get promoted out of this division.

Frustrating not to win. We were cruising to a 2-1 win, Pyke has a chance to wrap it up from 6 yards but heads straight at the keeper. Then they go up the other end and score. Eisa had a shot deflected just wide. Granted we should have won but the reaction from a minority at the end was ridiculous.

So who`s fault is it then ? Are we just about where we was when Hurst came back ?  What happened then ?  Cannot believe how so many just cannot smell the coffee  


Thank goodness that we have your superior nasal power to sniff out these helpful expert insights Denni.

Otherwise we would be thinking that a win last week and an away draw today were great. And that promotion and the Cup run were fantastic, and that it's OK to enjoy watching Town.

Enjoy your Starbucks.

I can be Hursts and the teams harshest critic, but I left that game dumbfounded with some of the boos at the end of the match. I thought it was an entertaining game with a much better performance than Tuesday.  There wasn’t a great deal to separate the two teams and a draw was a fair result. I guess some people will be on Hursts and the teams back whatever!

Another game we should have won but 4 points in a week is always a good thing.  I agree with the comment above, there’s a decent portion of the fan base who will never be fully behind Hurst, I will never be able to fathom it but everybody’s allowed an opinion.  Scrolling through Twitter in the second half today,  half of the tweets lambasting PH for not making changes, others having a go because he had - you can’t win.

I personally think we look much better with 3 in midfield,  on current form it would be Conteh, Holohan and Andrews. IMO that shape brings the best out of Conteh and Eisa who can be our difference makers.  I don’t buy into the argument that we’re too defensive in that shape, I actually think we create more.

Thought we played well today and created some good chances. They've scored 2 goals from very little.

Have to say although I think Pyke should have definitely scored a 2nd he appears to not be excrement.

Impressed with Andrews a bit deeper but get him off the free kicks and corners. Woeful.

We’re in a similar league position to where we were when Hurst took over. I don’t think it needed a translator.


And??


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

A decent result and we have turned the tide. I think we will be up around the playoffs by the end of November and the moaners will be silenced. Paul Hursts black and white army

It was certainly a better performance than Tuesday. The team seem to have some confidence back and as mentioned above we have turned a corner.

I hope the distraction of playing Bradford in that cup match on Tuesday does not distract the team from this increase in performance. Tuesday is a pointless game as we are already out of this Mickey Mouse competition, but have to fulfil a fixture, and bring on the youth team.
