I'd be more keen to see doig go than hurst this guy I think has a bigger influence than we realise .. not overly popular with some of the players for a start.

A lot of talk about him when they had their short stay at Ipswich.

Did not hear anything about Hurst but the players did not like Doig.

A bit of a bully was the players dislike of him.

My info came from our postman at the time who was a season ticket holder

Who had a mate who was in the squad.

The ones who like to red cross please state how you know otherwise.

I just think doig could have a managers type influence around the squad ..and you can't have 2 captains steering the same ship.

There was an interview with Kieran Dyer (who was on the Ipswich coaching staff during Hurst and Doig’s brief reign) recently, and he spoke very well of both of them. Can’t find a link but it was posted on here.

That doesn't fit the prevailing mood. Everything from posh scotch eggs up has been blamed, so now it's the turn of Doig for a spell in the stocks.

Already aware Doig is a problem for some of the players (long before this poor run) but do I believe this is where our issue is? No not at all.

With certain managers and assistants there's no mistaking who's the gaffer ie Buckley Arthur Mann.
With these 2 I'm just not sure .also seems to me there may be a hyrachie at the club with certain players. Is this normal ?  im just not sure.
I just feel this runs deeper than Hursts mangament style and decisions.
