Like Joe Ironside - Hursty turned him down when he played well for us at a pre season friendly at Harrogate


He didn’t play well for us, he looked useless. Let’s not pretend otherwise.

This is what I’m remembering - is it all Paul’s fault for listening or having to listen

Actually he did play well and the other triallist (whose name I forget - began with C - ended up playing for Leyton Orient) was poor

I don't suppose many will agree with your post but it is a very valid question.

No doubt we will be poring over the data as to why it hasn't worked out so far, and looking at ways to improve things in the future...

The only signing we made that could possibly be described as left field is Conteh, but there are so many moving parts in any transfer, the make up of the squad and how they perform in given situations with different managers I think appointments like this just muddy the waters. I'm sure Hurst had the final say but he has signed a lot better players than these in previous seasons and he must have felt some pressure to make this blokes salary worthwhile.

Quoted from Yoda
Goodbye Hurst go and cup your ear to some other fans.
The most boring football ever at BP


Some of them are on the pitch cupping us ears, they think it's all over, it is now.
He can cup his P45 to his ear at last.

The best signing has been conteh and to be fair Hurst did give the recruitment guy a lot of credit for that one. In fact he even said after he's been signed and the reaction wa sso positive that he didn't know why that was the case, which struck me as a bit odd if he had identified him.

Within a short period it was obvious conteh had a lot of ability, personally I suspect conteh was a signing driven by the recruitment guy rather than Hurst, but it was one that looks good. Is it the case that hursts signings worked out less well (vernam being an obvious one as he was trying to recruit him before we got a recruitment guy)? Or was it the recruitment guys influenced signings didn't weave together well as a team?

Last sentence —previously when I questioning the signings - they were all Hursts - but now that may not have been the case?

Conteh has done nothing good since august.

I must have a different view from my seat but for most of the time all I see from Conteh is meandering in front of the back four playing in the main short or sideways passing.

Now there may be a good player there but I have yet to see what he brings to help the team defend or score goals.
