I hope he gets it , I doubt he will though.

He might have had a better chance last season but I still think they’ll go for someone with more success at a higher level

Wouldn't be averse to having Taylor  at GTFC, did a great job at Exeter, maybe  Ben as assistant and Sean into
the coaching set up proper?


He was brilliant at exeter and got them playing good football, they're awful to watch at the moment. He's too good for league 2 in my opinion.

Ticks a few boxes in terms of location, brand of football, success at L2 level. Could be a strong candidate.

If it's true that Blackpool and Port Vale are interested in Hurst I don't see why Rotherham would not want to talk to him at the very least.

If you take into account what Hursty did st Shrewsbury and the fact that he’s played hundreds of games for them (not really relevant but kind of would be taken as such), he’s a candidate, surely. If he wants it, I hope he gets it.

With the greatest respect to Hurst, why the hell would a championship club appoint a manager who's record in the EFL looks very average at best and that's mainly at league 2 level! regardless how many times be played for them as a player, that would be a serious downgrade for them.

Fair enough and I did acknowledge that, but he has a chance. He will surely apply - if he does I hope he gets it.

As mentioned though, Rob Scott is head of recruitment at Rotherham and heavily involved in the process. That aside, I just don't think his CV stands him up for a Championship-level job at this moment in time, and there's even an argument that his next job in management might not even be in the EFL.

The only reason he would be talked about in terms of the Rotherham job is that he is their record appearance holder, but that's largely irrelevant in this context. No one is talking about John McDermott as our next boss, and though I concede he has considerably less experience in management than Hurst, that's mainly because any connection as a player should account for a tiny proportion of any decision making.

It would be a very strange move for the Millers to make, and not one I expect them to.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.
