Hurst has employed Doig as his assistant five times.  Here (twice), Shrewsbury, Ipswich and Scunny.

Does anyone really think that if Doig had caused issues with the players, which ultimately leads to Hurst getting the sack and/or tries to impose his authority over Hurst, both of which have been suggested in this thead, then Hurst would continue to employ him?

He stuck with Scott and he was a twit until Fenty got rid.

Jeez, what should he have done? Sacked Scott himself? He had about 10 minutes management experience at that point too.

I would not think Doig has done anything other than follow orders.

Hurst might have said , " I want to play good cop bad cop when needed and I am the good cop "

So Doig used his size to gee. some of the lads up and Hurst puts his arm round some of the more sensitive ones.

I don't know if this true but it's a ploy a lot of managers use.

Indeed. Complete difference between joint managers and manager/assistant.

Exactly.  Hurst might as well have tried to sack the manager of Tesco.
