Davies would be caretaker, probably flanked by Pearson and Woods in the interim.


Why Woods, he might be ok running a youth team but one of the worst managers in the club's history.

Because we're a small club and you lean on anyone with any sort of experience in that sort of scenario. He's probably the most experienced member of staff barring Dave at the club.

I think it’s wasted breath even planning for a caretaker, I can’t see the owners taking decisive action on Hurst for many weeks

So would I.

Interesting that when Hurst doesn't do press duty, it's never Doig who stands in.


Correct me if I am wrong but has Doig been seen on video since his last day when he famously knew nothing. ?

Quoted from GollyGTFC
We've had 16 league matches under caretaker managers in League Two since 2004 when we were relegated out of the Division Two and the leagues were renamed.

We've only won 1 of those games. And that was Lindrick's final match when Holloway has already been announced and was at the ground watching on.

So if Hurst is sacked we could do with moving quickly as having as few games under a caretaker as possible.


I'd say that's more down to the caretaker inheriting a pile of excrement than anything else.

Limbrick did a lot of the rebuilding work that gave a good foundation for Holloway. Most of the other instances were one or two games a time with a side in shocking form and low on confidence.

Well he has the experience of taking a club out of the football league.
