Winning promotion today is one hell of an achievement. On Hurst returning my comment was “at least we’ve got a manager who knows what he’s doing” this season has proved that.

We’ll kick on now and establish ourselves as being competitive in L2 I think.

Going from an amateur set up into a more modern set up with professionsm back up from on high has certainly assisted with tbe success now achieved.

It will be interesting to see what changes will be made with infrastructure, advertising, sponsorship deals, facilities within the ground and the pitch upgrade.

People always ask about new players as soon as the season ends, but as we have seen this season, there are huge benefits to working on what becomes facilities that aid recruitment, and the welfare of players, other staff and supporters.

Keeping the tills turning over and aiding the promotion of the club to outsiders makes sense to bring financial stability to the club.

Did anyone else notice that after we scored the winner, he still left Abrahams on the halfway line when they got a corner?  We wouldn't have done that in his first spell here, even if the scores were level!!

I like your posts, but we'll only be in L2 for 1 season then L1. You know my positive optimism.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

When he arrived for his second spell you could see he was a much more rounded and man than before.  During the mid-season slump he did look haggard and under pressure at times.  He picked himself up, dusted himself down and with his excellent coaching staff regrouped and rebuilt a team with massive winning mentality. Often slated for being defensive and making substitutions too late, he changed those aspects of his game and took us all the way against overwhelming odds. I doth my cap.

Quoted from Squinter


In the last three games he's looked a different Paul Hurst to 2016, so relaxed and calm with complete faith in his team.  He was even laughing with Cropper on the sidelines before a throw.  

What a difference new ownership has made.  We're in safe hands now for our EFL return.  


Think a lot of that has to do with the lack of bullshit behind the scenes at the club. Jason and Andrew truly have saved our club and them getting Paul back wad the most astute first move they could have made.

Paul Hurst = legend!

Ian 'ollie' Holloway = makes me feel sick

Two contrasting managers and only one that I want in my dugout
