Hurst in or out?

I don’t want to lose him. I want stability. I still think we’ll make the playoffs in the next 3 seasons with Hurst in charge and be promoted within 5. Call me incremental.

But the results speak for themselves.

We have to stay up to go up in the future.

19 goals conceded in the last 8 matches. Paul will be aware, as we all are, that continuing like that will see us relegated. It’s unsustainable for the sustainable.

After Doncaster we have the Slough banana skin. Morecambe are in great form (3rd on PPG). Then comes Forest Green where, unless we change something drastically, I have a feeling Deeney and Stevens will feast and it could be double figures. Then it’s Sutton!

I want him to stay. I want him to succeed. For him, for us, to ram it up Yoda’s shïtter.

But even my defence feels like a Hurst fanboy tribute act. In fact, if the spineless element of the current team defended as diligently as me, B&W Bear, Ancient & Ginny over the past few weeks, we’d probably be in the playoffs.

Hurst signed these players. He trained them. But ‘some’ of them are an absolute disgrace who have thrown him under the bus. Unfortunately, we are stuck with them until January and it’s Hurst who, rightly or wrongly, will pay the price for those lazy, cowardly cünts.

Well don't sit on the fence, which players have thrown him under the bus? or is it the collective?

From where I see, the problem lies predominantly with the tactics, the inability to see what is ineffective and change quickly to remedy.

Then the choice of replacement keeper for the outgoing Crocombe, this lies solely with Hurst and his pre-requisite of most players he signs either having played for him before or live within the South Yorkshire commuter belt.

Hurst is not a terrible manager but league football and a relatively decent transfer budget seems to expose his limitations.

If you told a load of monkeys to put square pegs in round holes long enough , they’d get to the point of saying what the fook are you trying to make us do and lose interest.

Well some players might, but as for the Board and Management, I very much doubt it.  Even if they did, they would not act on a very small minority of the Town fans words, and especially not on those who give PH dogs abuse, which is unwarranted.

I’m pretty sure the Board read this as it’s the easiest and quickest way to get feedback from their “customers” and I would suggest that the Fishy contributors are a pretty reflective sample of our fan base.

As for the dogs abuse I think there is definitely one whose contribution is unacceptable but the other contributors have all supported their particular leanings with reasons why they are supporting a change in Manager so that’s not likely to upset a butcher’s son and a guy who grew up on the Nunny!!

As for Crocombe Hurst has a history of this he let Amond go when he scored 43 goals in one season.

FFS ...if you're gonna spout sh!te at least get your bloody facts right!!..
Fenty reneged on Amonds new contract, had f all to do with Hurst!!

Sometimes it just pays to keep your nerve. Getting rid of managers because of poor runs doesnt always pay off. Ask Forest Green, Donny, Tranmere who got rid but didnt really progress.
Season before Nigel Clough was under pressure with supporters because Mansfield were in the bottom two for a number of weeks. Some Crewe fans wanted to get rid of there manager last season because of a dire run. Challinor was under pressure last season  because of a bad start. Look at those three now.
Whilst i am not saying I am not worried, because after last night I am, there are just as many instances of manager's turning it round than there is of getting responses from new managers coming in. Guess the board are gambling on the same.

The problem is that it's not so much the results but the pathetic quality of football as well.

Yeah I dont disagree with that. But take last night. If Andrews hadnt fannied around getting robbed and Amos had passed to anyone of the six Town players queueing up in the box to score instead of lamping into the pontoon we would have been justifiably in front whilst playing how I think we can. Whilst I know he picks the team I cant help feel a tad sorry for him whilst we have decision making like those.
