Will be interesting to see which team Hurst puts out against Gateshead next week.

Three games in and with much of the attacking unit still injured, I think we're pressing the panic button a little early, and without any regard for what to do instead. I think if anyone wants to play out the "Hurst Out" scenario on here, they need to be saying what their alternative is, name some names and explain how JF would conduct the search and the transition period to a new manager.
My desire to see a different approach, one not built around hitting a big guy in the air, is well-documented on other threads, but I'm hopeful that with Neilson and some strikers to come back, Winfarrah potentially carving out a role on the wing, and a (usually) decent defence, there are grounds to be hopeful.
The test for me will be what happens when we have the full squad and PH has more permutations and combinations. Will he release some of the cautious shackles and take a few risks? Will he try something a bit different? Will he build the pointy end of the team around beauty rather than brawn? Let's rate progress then.
Nevermind about "pressing the panic button early" Hurst should have gone last Christmas. He is tactically inept to say the least and plays some of the most boring football ever seen in the history of Blundell park. I got pelters on here last season for saying Hurs had to go and for Getyourfactsright to do whatever it takes to get Mills in as Manager. As the idiot is still our Manager I was prepared to give him 10 or so game until he got players back but when I got to the game and see that Winfarrah wasnt starting I thought fcuk him sack the twit now because hes a fool. If we play like this next week Oster and Rodman will take us apart and we will get a good hiding. We have no chance of promotion with this clown in charge.

| 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. GOD |

How long is Connell with us for?
I think I heard from a source at the club that he has a month to " prove himself". He might as well go now as far as I'm concerned.

Lets hope Pittman and Hannah get a good understanding with each other (That's if Hurst will go with this pairing)

its negative football setting up like that at home against a poor side in dover, and makes it even worse playing players out of position to accommodate others who arent good enough or because you havent got the bottle to drop a centre half. We have good players here but it seems hurst hasnt got what it takes to get the best out of them, We are more concerned in keeping clean sheets than trying to score goals. The only way we are going to get out of this league is by winning it and by scoring plenty of goals. Its a farce we dont have a gk coach but we also need an attack minded guy in the dugout. I beleive the players are at the club to get us promotion, but we have the wrong man in charge. I think he should go UTM

Surely PH must realise that he only has this season to get us promoted and playing formations like he did today won't achieve that.

Trouble is that he has signed proven goal scorers, and as soon as they pull a shirt on they stop scoring,, got to be down to the way we play , and that is down to the manager,, He has to go And NOW
I'm struggling with the proven goal scorer bit.

What did he say (my speakers on computer are knackered)
|
| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |
