Did we pick the wrong “young and hungry manager”? on 07:11 - Oct 3 with 1180 views | Simonds92 | Yes we clearly did. We needed an attacking manager regardless of age not an even more defensive one than we had. We also needed a manager to come in to that squad and boost their confidence tell them they're good players and give them belief of their ability on the ball. He came in and slated a number of them for no reason. | | | |

Yep. I was also wooed by Ross' footballing patter. But I was told by some staunch Mickers that Hurst would be the better option - even when I get pelters on here for daring to suggest his side looked a bit HOOFY in the play-off final defeat. I really want Hurst to turn it around. I still think he can. The table doesn't look too crazy down the bottom yet. But, I was critical of Mick's aimless HoofBall & only being able to muster up ONE shot on target in 90mins. I would be a hypocrite now if I didn't criticise the same problems under Hurst. Start with two strikers upfront. Play the most attacking team on paper from the off. Let's throw caution to the wind. | | | |

I can't see Hurst turning this around, he's done. I've thought that since the Brentford game, it's a real shame but sometimes things don't work out. To recover belief in him from a 12/13 game winless run will be a remarkable turnaround. There's pockets of play where you think i can see what he's trying to do, but those pockets of play are for 10 or so minutes and so sporadic. Where do we go from here? I have no idea, i suspect a young manager won't be appointed and we will go with a tried and tested manager again at this level, but i think this year is the year we go down. Mick covered the cracks for 5 years but the Evans ownership has been a very poor from start to finish. We will never get to the prem with him as an owner. The game has moved on and he will invest what he wants and that's his right but unfortunately it requires more nowadays. I like that he's given managers time but that's the only positive i can give him from his time here. | | | |
