I was just going to post that I'll wait and see what the just back thread has to say about the game ,as I could imagine JT would make a pi$$up in a brewery sound like a dire event.



If he ever writes an autobiography it'll be called "And there it is".

Lets all get ready for another TOUGH GAME against Halifax, a team with the worst goal difference in the league of MINUS 16.

I expect Hurst to be telling us with all our injury problems that a draw will be a good result ?

Result ok. Soft pitch and long grass. A point today is ok if we win Tuesday. Then we roll on to Torquay 10 games unbeaten. Keep the faith it's a marathon..

I was hoping we wouldn't be hearing about the pitch afterwards.

a) we've known what their pitch is like for 5 years now, it is no surprise.
and
b) the pitch is the same for both teams

Quoted from LH
A draw is a perfectly acceptable result away at a team who were one place below us at the start of play. Especially when we used two subs before half time. The unbeaten run continues. Very, very winnable game to come on Tuesday.


"Perfectly acceptable result" is just the sort of balderdash statement and acceptance of failure that has come from the very top of our club all the way down to a lot of our fans and the reason we are still in this excrement league.
It's NOT acceptable to play excrement and only get 1 point from teams like today's opponents and it's NOT acceptable to be in the position we are in the league at the moment.

Hurst Out


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.

I look at it this way, no point in rocking the boat while we still have a realistic chance of promotion ( playoffs included ) and we really do at this stage. The club has too much money, hope and emotion invested in Hurst and his team. When and only when promotion is unattainable then Hurst has to be history ( he has had long enough ).. You never know, he might just get us promoted.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

So we all agree if hurst doesnt take us up this season its time for a fresh look at it all ?

And if he does he deserves time in league 2 to get his team together no doubt ?

Im Town through and through and wish him all the best in our promotion charge or more of a plod but cant see him having what it takes.

Quoted from Tinymariner
That was a difficult game and it's clear to see why they haven't conceded many goals. Hurst had his hands tied before half time and made the change with Marshall which could have backfired if we had any more injuries. Better to draw than lose. I'm glad I came as I detest listening to the negative JT. It wasn't that bad! UTM


Was you at the same came as me,it was dire we lacked any creativity what-so-ever.

So, if we win promotion this season, you think we should sack the manager? Strange.
