A Slight Bit Of Info... 11:22 - Oct 25 with 6865 viewsJackADP

An sportswriter who I've just spoken with (has written articles before for The Guardian and other places) has heard from sources that Hurst will be sacked today, if not then definitely by tomorrow.

To stress, this is not def info, but has some level of credibility due to his career, having almost certainly picked up some credible contacts along the way.

Would that sportswriter be a Town fan?

No, Leeds as it happens - so will have known people at the ground last night - this is why I have some reason to believe whispers may have been picked up and passed on.

Hardly going out on a limb there, but sort of comforting to know. We felt the "would have" tone of his pre match suggested he'd had the "X points in Y games" chat from the board a la Football manager and knew he was all but off.

And where did he hear this "def info".

The only person who can sack the manager is the owner and he wasn't at the game

If the timing is dependent on the result last night, seems odd. Sir Alex could have been our manager last night and we still would have got zero points. The QPR performance was worthy of the boot, last night wasn't, I actually think it was fairly competent.

Altho if the decision is actually taken, others will have to have been informed, if only purely for administrative reasons.

First of all, would just like to point out I did say “not defo info”.

Also, he is/was (don’t how how much he’s doing this now) a sportswriter, so this info will have most likely been picked up from a contact within somewhere.

Just relaying something I have been told - not trying to say it is definitely true, just thought it was worth mentioning.

Last night's performance in comparison with the QPR one was ok but just because we looked a little better in losing again is not enough reason to keep him.

I agree that the QPR game should have been enough.

Why though?

We have people at the club perfectly capable of taking over on an interim basis.

An actual caretaker with a bucket and mop could probably do better. Be cheaper too.

So the owner has to be at game in order to sack manager?

I know less than the person that knows least about it. Just uneducated guesses.
