Getting rid of Mr McCarthy seems to have worked well.

Yep. But you could see all this from a mile off. |  | | |

Hate to break this to you but it was Marcus Evans who sacked ME and appointed PH. |  |

McCarthy going was absolutely the right decision. I'm still hanging on to giving Hurst time, but Jack Ross was always my first choice and I wish that he had been Evans' first choice and that he threw everything at getting him. | |

Getting rid of MM, was the right decision.
The appointment of his replacement clearly hasn’t been!
Two completely different things. |  | | |

I agree, for all the good he did here McCarthy's time was up - the relationship between him and the fans was unsalvageable. | |

Only a numbskull would think that the decision to remove the manager and the decision to appoint the next one were the same decision. |  |

Hate to break it to you but Mick left after Barnsley - abuse from fans, some of it quite disgusting. ME did say subsequent that Mick’s contract wasn’t to be renewed.
You were defending PH this time last week, so presumably you were of the view ME had made the Right appointment? [Post edited 20 Oct 2018 18:02]

Jack Ross became first choice but ME dithered.
I don’t know how Hurst is still here to be honest but he won’t be here for many more days.
I’m not anti ME by any means but he has really screwed up. |  |

How are they not directly linked though? Are you seriously going to tell us that had Hurst been a success then people wouldn't be trumpeting their vindication? |  |

Getting rid of McCarthy was the right choice. I'm not convinced he would have done much better if he'd lost the players we have.
Employing Hurst,and keeping him once it was clear he was a mistake, wasn't. | | | |

Getting rid of Mick McCarthy was the correct decision.
Appointing Paul Hurst was not the correct decision. |  |

He wouldn't have lost all the players. |  | | |

McCarthy would have brought in differently if he'd still been here - he'd have looked for Championship proven players on the free market, loanees and bringing our youngsters through (despite criticism he did this quite a bit). I can't believe for a moment he would have taken a gamble of League One players making the step up.
I'm still not sure if we would have lost Webster or Garner had he stayed. Waghorn, for that money, maybe. | |

And it had already been decided by then, clearly. You're an odd one.
Hurst was a good appointment prima facie, but Evans has handled everything else since then terribly as an an owner. Add that onto the past 10 years and yeah, Evans out. | |

It was the right decision, we'd have sold 6000 season tickets (being generous). [Post edited 20 Oct 2018 18:10]

No-one who wanted a change of manager asked for a new man who would totally misjudge the strength of the championship and bring in a bunch of hopelessly out of their depth league one players. Having said that, you have a point with your second question. | |

You're assuming he had like for like wages available to spend. I would hope these L1/2 players are on a lot less than the likes of McG, Waghorn, Celina, etc which is probably a big factor in us signing them.
Not defending Hurst BTW as clearly he didn't buy wisely just don't think MM would have reversed the downward trend either. | | | |

But that's not proof of them not being the same decision. Of course no one wanted this, but many insisted Mick was the problem and all would change when he was gone. They were told that might be wrong, and so they are.
The last thing we need right now is them to slink off, or lead another hate campaign. We need everyone fighting for everything and ensure ITFC don;t go down. Because under Evans that's our common trajectory, and we risk the best case scenario is us becoming a dreary yoyo club. | |

I think Mick would have got exactly the same amount of money as Hurst but he would have brought fewer players in and used the academy (in particular Nydam and Downes, possibly Emmanuel, Cotter and Woolfenden too) more to cover the caps. | |
