I don't disagree, but you could also argue that FGR have a bigger budget than we do. Hurst definitely has his faults but then so do the majority of the managers in this league, or they wouldn't be down here. And if the 'top 4' budget Fenty tells us we have is accurate then I suppose he isn't...
But by your reasoning, the fact Garry Hill hasn't got you promoted means you're not allowed to comment on Hurst not being up to it? Isn't that how it works?
We have always been one of the most unfashionable teams in the country, and were referred to as 'the likes of Grimsby' so many times by managers/chairmen/pundits attempting to describe the absolute worst that we started to quite enjoy it. There's even a dedicated page on the fishy, chronicling...
Not at all, I'm sure Gateshead want this to derail their promotion hopes as much as we do. Which is why some may feel it would have suited both parties to settle it on the day, though I can understand why they didn't.
Another lurker who has decided to take the plunge. 'We' didn't play the kids because fans aren't involved in team selection! Just like we can't decide to forfeit, although I bet the majority of fans would. Doesn't mean we're not entitled to a whinge when it all turns into a bit of a farce.
