The spineless leaders as you call them like a small child, are the ones around the club, the management team , the players and will see things we don't. If you want to be in their position and make the decisions you should have been a better boy at school. In the meantime I'm happy and confident they will not strike from a knee jerk reaction and will do the very best for the club as they see it, and when I look at other clubs going from one poor manager to the next I can live with that.

They'll know that if a change has to happen, it needs to happen before January for obvious reasons so IF they change manager, I wouldn't expect to see any changes until early December unless there's some huge boycott or town lose 23-0
Personally, I think he will have the next 3 matches to show that improvement is possible and imminent. The home match v Colchester will be massive as lose that and I believe the atmosphere will be very unpleasant and once that happens it really does become just a matter of time. Said before I’m one for change now but hoping that if he stays we pick up a couple of wins in the next three games and we can all start getting more optimistic about how this season might pan out. Not particularly convinced that’s going to happen though!!!

Administration, shut this down please, we already have one thread that's feeding the trolls,...
None on this site has the right to ask to shut down the post. (Assuming they are not libellous, or downright insulting-various) If you don't like it, ignore it and don't reply to it. Cancel Culture is corrosive to democracy, be it on the outside world or The Fishy.

Can't believe I am reading the rubbish.
Paul Hurst is a decent man. More than a decent man in fact. He's served our club well and continues to graft day in and day out to lead our club on the football side of things.
He's honest, hard working, and wants nothing but the best for us. The fact that we haven't had the start we would have hoped for this season is unfortunate. But the form this season over just 13 games does not make Paul Hurst a poor manager overnight. Neither does it mean that the football isn't going to come good again sometime soon.
The manner in which football supporters discuss managers is appalling and distasteful. This is a good person you are slating, with your constant unsettling speak.
And as for the comments regarding our owners, the behaviour of some of your towards them is no better. Andrew and Jason are highly professional people. They don't need to be putting out statements about their employees to appease supporters and neither should they. Frankly even public statements confirming confidence in a manager are not acceptable and not needed. I don't need to read that our owners are either satisfied or dissatisfied with Paul Hurst. The fact that they choose to employ him is good enough for me. And if there is ever a point when they sadly end his employment by their own volition, or through mutual agreement; then that would be good enough for me too. I don't need a running commentary or messages in-between any managers starting point and end point.
Football is a really weird industry. Aside from politics, I cannot think of another industry where people feel they have the right to play a part in the employment of people. I don't like it one bit.
My message is this. Keep working hard Paul Hurst, and as long as you are our manager then I am fully behind you as a supporter, because I know that you are doing everything you can for our club. Just like you always have. I have every confidence in you as the manager.

Public statements by owners of football clubs don’t necessarily work, you only have to look down the road at Glanford Park and see the chaos and embarrassment statements made by the former owner David Hilton caused so I think a bit of discretion by our owners is not a bad thing.

A good post. Most if not all supporters are concerned. Angry even. We want things to change. The prevalence of insulting, disrespectful and entitled outrage is ugly and unfair. I’m not happy; our league position, points total and performance levels are unsatisfactory. We should strive for better. It does need to be addressed, and quickly, but personal insults, hysterical and abusive exclamations, supposition, guess work and blithering victim mentality cobblers is really unsightly, unhelpful and unfair.

With fans displeasure of the manager at the highest level for some time, our tree hugging Guardian writing leaders are unusually silent. Do they lack the will to do anything or are they studying data to give a measured response? A vote of confidence in their manager is normally issued in these situations.
What a pillock you are.
