Hurst on RH (summary)

Quoted from 120797

Probably only be 2 pts come 5pm Saturday.
Think we all know it's been dire early season injury's + urine poor ref today.
Performances are good !
Anyway I'm leaving in optimistic mood tonight before the doomsday brigade take over.  
See ya later.

I can't see that happening. One or two may be very critical but I think most will acknowledge that today's performance showed we will be up there at the end of the season, even though the result went against us.

The frustration of defeat will be softened provided we bounce back and beat Welling next Saturday and Lincoln the following Tuesday.

LJL made 2 poor decisions and I think both Pearson and mckeown were also booked for dissent? Not 100% sure but they are stupid bookings

Oh so now you agree the ref was useless, or are you blaming the referee now!

The quote below was on the Shot's forum,I think it makes a good point .These little niggly arguments with officials could be our downfall come end of season,as it was most likely the reason we lost today.

[/b]" Grimsby’s ill-discipline in wanting to get into constant arguments with referee Whitton, broke up the play time and again – which obviously suited the home side in their quest in running down the clock ".[b]

We are going to lose some games aren't we.

Draws are even better.
Still, lots seemed to be complaining like fury about those wanting Hurst to be sacked.

Quoted from chaos33

it's early days and we have experienced mitigating circumstances.

Shame you and others didn't take all those into account 13 days ago.

Sorry, you wanted him gone end of last season ?
That's completely fine then of course...

In my opinion, anyone calling for his head in the past has ZERO credibility in pointing the best way forward at all !

Got to say PH comes across as very positive on that interview after a good performance they had most of the game even down to ten men. I think the only aspect which Hurst might take up is the discipline point. We are getting a lot of bookings which WILL if not addressed cost us dearly. This I am certain is what he eluded to when about talking about things behind closed doors.  You are bound to get this with the passion to win every game but you have to channel it in the right way not easy when you have rubbish officials to contend with.

I feel a real buzz about this side if we can keep the good players together and maybe bring in a couple more quality signings we are capable of being a real  threat this season.
  

Good post Mrs D.

Seems you want to be dismantled just one more time so here it is, but it will be the last time as it's getting tedious and is ruining threads, as several posters have said. It'll have to be ignore time for you I'm afraid.

First of all, I did take into account the mitigating circumstances and said so clearly, despite us obviously playing without the method and application that we've shown in the last 3 games. I (and anyone else) can make whatever point and take whatever stance I wish without your approval, especially when you post the vast amount of rambling, one dimensional, non committal dross that you do, ok.

Yes, I did think Hurst was lucky that he wasn't replaced at the end of last season and make no apology for it. Since he is still our manager and we have improved in the aspects that we were formerly lacking, I am broadly behind him. I have never called for him to be sacked 3 games into the season and didn't agree with those that did. I said so clearly - that's just a fact. I think the majority of Town fans, whether they wanted him to have another go this season or not, are behind Hurst and feel he should be given a fair chance (at least 10 games or more?) this season. I called for vast improvements as many others did, acknowledged our missing players (although I still felt we had the personnel available to do better), and never indulged in any abuse of Hurst or LJL.

I don't know who the f*ck you think you are to declare the odds on credibility! but you can't even manage to deal in true recollections. Here again is one of those ironies lost on you (like asking me to rein myself in) - if you want to consider credibility, take a look at your own reputation score (or your original tally when you ruined the board before), or your 'approval rating' now. Read the replies to almost all of your posts. You have practically no credibility on here at all - never have had, and never will. Your long-winded, badly written, self important diatribes alienate and infuriate people who enjoy intelligent, lucid and friendly debate. Look at what you're doing now - the overall mood is positive, but you're still sniping, and stirring and goading. YOU are the most negative poster on here - ain't that ironic. You're a joke, and a bad one at that.

And, since I saw you misquote me somewhere else on team selections, for the record, I am not a 'never change a winning team' person.  I am a 'horses for courses' man; have said so on many occasions and I'm entitled to that view whether you like it or not. Here again, is another one of those delicious ironies - criticism from a man who can't get his facts right and who advocates a rotation policy that proposed a cartload of changes to the team that beat Gateshead and Alfreton so convincingly when left unchanged. Seems Hurst likes 'Horses for courses' too.

The referee ruined the game today as a competitive football match. I'd be surprised if even the most die-hard Aldershot supporter didn't agree with that.
