Thanks Paul, for magical memories, But its time to change before things go so bad for you that your legacy is tarnished.
Im gutted, for him, for Us fans, but cant defend this anymore. Not losing to them, A goalkeeper(s) who is worse than the one we’ve let go, a defence that cant defend. Ive never seen a Hurst side like this. Ever.
Did the right thing 2nd half and went for it and got back into it but then just sat off them and you just knew. You knew they would score. Christ knows what Eastwood was doing
Had chances, Missed them of course.
Credit to Green who i thought did very well.
Ive rarely felt like this after football, almost attached to a manager, But this team look excrement scared and I dont believe Hurst can survive this.

I think you summed this up perfectly.
I really saw him turning this around, but after today, it may just need something different. Confidence needs to be rebuilt.
Very deflated right now.

PH sends Green to talk to JT on RH. Wot Hurst is not available, Doig is not available, Coaches are not available, Club Captain is not available, and Match Captain is not available.
A sh!t performance on the pitch and a worse from the staff fo not turning to talk to JT.

Another routine terrible performance from Town. Reading through other threads I'm not sure how certain individuals can still back Hurst to turn it around!?
Can't defend, can't string even a couple of passes together, can't communicate more importantly though they look as if they don't care
Time for Stockwood & co. to act!!

Very flat after that. All I can really muster up is Mullarkey and Eastwood shouldn’t be in the team.

First two goals Eastwood heavily to blame for me...First one he started out to go get the ball, stopped, back tracked and beaten by a good finish....if anything he probably hesitated as it was similar to the penalty he conceded Saturday....second goal the ball was just there to be caught..he didn't move...shocking. The third goal hard to tell from my angle about how bad a deflection it was but it was a fast counter attack, we hadn't sat back, just got caught. In between all that, a freaky own goal for us, a decent second following good pressure and getting numbers in the box.....but overall, disjointed First half, brief rally, then aimless punts up. Hurst second guessing himself now, Eisa in the middle, no natural wide men out wide...always struggling. Put a central midfielder in the middle and a winger out wide and hey presto some success. Don't think we deserved to lose but didn't deserve to win either but that isn't convincing enough for me and neither is 15 -20 mins of real committed play every game.

Our expected xG for and against must make interesting reading. Does anyone know where I can find this? Would love to know our goals conceded to shots on target faced too. Has to be the worst in the division. We've objectively created the greater chances tonight and effectively lost 3-1. Their keeper's made five saves and Eastwood one. We've been in really good positions around the box and sub-standard passing and finishing has let us down time and time again: Eisa and Gnahoua not quick enough and letting the ball hit them with the goal at their mercy, Rose should do better with a header, Amos's shank with half a dozen teammates to pass to. Gav's hit the post, which was a good save by their keeper. I don't think i've ever known a Town side with such a contrast between the competence in both boxes.
When we've been excrement in League 2 before, we've generally been crap at the back and not created chances at the other end. That's not the case with this team, we've been in virtually every game, if not the side that's created the better chances in most of them. We're just absolutely urine weak at the back, not helped by a keeper who i'm sorry to say does not instil confidence in his defenders

There’s only so many times it can be bad luck.
Hurst has lost the fans now, the clock is now ticking on the owners making a call before the noise turns towards them.

Players who looked pretty good at the start of the season now look shell shocked and lost. The keeper instils no confidence whatsoever and we are dithering in defensive and attacking situations, with a prime example being Andrews who just seemed to freeze, lost the ball and as is the case this season, a player hits a hopeful shot, and it's deflected into the corner of the net for what turned out to be the winner.
Another game we have lost by the one goal, and overall we at least deserved a point, but if you have to score 3 goals at home to a bottom 2 side just to get one point, there's something wrong. It's just not working and we look muddled and scared of the ball.
Didn't help having no Clifton and losing Holohan, because if nothing else, they bring energy to the midfield. So we end up with a player whose playing his first half in weeks, alongside Andrews and Conteh, who have about 20 league games experience between them.
The wheels have well and truly come off.

3 goals conceded from a bottom 2 side, the 3rd from a player strolling through the middle, AGAIN, for the umpteenth time this season and we're meant to believe this management team made up entirely of ex-defenders will ever build a solid defensive core for a team?
A clean sheet is a thing of pure fantasy right now, matches are a miserable experience, confidence is shot, it feels like we need a complete reset.
