Hurst has left us with a terrible team all the cup money has been wasted.
But DA needs to raise his game because on that performance we are down.

Whilst I agree with you in the fact cup money from last season seems to spunked on players not quite up it….sitting in the stand watching the pre-season against Hull I genuinely thought Hurst had unearthed some gems. Stand-out players Rogers and Mullarky…certainly better/a step up than what we had.
Now I’m not so sure but for me I think Artell may be missing it. This may get red crossed to f**k but I’d personally play Clifton at right back (or at least for a few games). It gives Mullarky the break I think he needs. Take the pressure off Harry playing a role he looks lost in at the minute and may provide the energy to help out the centre half’s. We have CURRENTLY enough centre midfielders to cover….

I’m not a football manager but is it the worst suggestion??

Funny that those blaming Hurst for building our current squad also blamed Hurst for the squad Holloway built

From a defensive perspective I would be a lot happier playing Clifton right back and if we could clone him at left back too, failing that khouri has the same attributes to be deployed as left back. Both tenacious in the tackle and he has done a job there before.

It's not the worst suggestion we've certainly seen that Clifton can be a competent full back and has proven this multiple times.

It's certainly a consideration to swap him out for one of either Gellenon or Mullarkey  question is which one as I suspect he could do a better job than both.

Good point well made.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Can we not start this please?

His time was over here, how he does somewhere else doesn't matter.

If you need reminding watch his post-match presser after Col U at home, bloke looked like he was going to cry. He knew it was finished here, so did everyone else.

And my point was not that he was or wasn’t finished, more to do with YET AGAIN blaming him for the latest result.

Changing the entire system a team plays with players who can’t grasp it in the middle of a season whilst we’re hovering over the relegation positions is fúcking madness. Everybody around me is saying exactly the same thing.
