There's no point in texting Toto. "Everythings in God's hands"......

Cannot believe some fans would have him back. As soon as we found out that he had been tapped up by Ipswich, before Wembley, and was off asap regardless of how we got on against Rotherham, he became a non- person to me. If the slime ball ever came back my association with Shrewsbury as a life- time supporter, would come to an end.

That's made my day that has.
Meanwhile, our focus should be 100% behind Askey and the lads, with a huge game on Saturday to win - lets face it without backing it up at the Kassam with another 3 points, some positivity and momentum, Tuesday's result doesn't really mean anything.

Excellent news. He brought us sunshine, but left under a cloud. Very well put - that’s his time here in a sentence.

There are people on facebook willing the return of Mr Hurst. Crying out for Askey to go and Hurst to come back. I mean, really? Are your memories that poor? If he wanted any chance of a return he shouldn't have sh@t on the doorstep on the way out.

Skirt thinks he’s a celebrity, that video of him dancing on the pitch was cringeworthy. Stick to your day job, when you get one. Totally agree, he strutts around like some bantam cock. He needs to remember he's only the physio (ex). I didn't like him when he was with Town, even less so now.

Presumably people who have short memories and little integrity.
I will never forget how he let us down at Wembley not because we lost thats how it is but because of his attitude. The money the fans spent, the effort that was put in to buying balloons, etc., not to mention the extra cost, all for him, the most important person, not to to give a damn. It stank then and it still does.
I can promise everyone that if he comes back I will be gone. I have my standards and he doesn't come anywhere near meeting them. Mind you I don't think he will come back - he won't want to and I doubt RW and BC would have him.

There's NO chance he will come back. He left under a huge cloud and Roland and BC wouldn't want to make the same mistake twice, both are far too shrewd for that.
However, there's no doubt that until he gets another job, the fans will remain split, especially if JA doesn't look like succeeding.
It seems to have the stars written all over it that we will face a Paul Hurst side this season. A sell-out crowd to watch him get his just desserts is assured!

A few vile vile people have embarrassed themselves on this thread. Fortunately for them, the Swan already knew they were disgraceful imbeciles of the very highest order, so the equilibrium has not shifted. As you were.

It has to be one of the most disastrous managerial appointments in recent years. Hurst thought he could replicate at Ipswich what he did with us by integrating players from lower leagues and promising academy players and expecting them to perform at a higher level. Clearly, the gap between Leagues One and Two and the Championship is bigger than he expected, and I can't imagine too many of Ipswich's existing squad taking kindly to Doig's sergeant major routine either.
This will be a serious dent to his pride (although not his bank balance)as he has never been sacked before and I suspect is far too confident in his own ability. He even to criticising Ipswich in his last few days by saying there was a lot which needed to be changed at the club as he desperately tried to deflect the blame from his own shortcomings.
The fact that the slippery Evans is now reduced to looking to an ex-Norwich manager as a saviour also has a delicious irony to it and I'm sure will send his stock plummeting even further with most of the Ipswich fans.
Finally, a penny for Wycherley's thoughts at the moment. He has his pride and principles and must have been fuming at the manner of Hurst's departure but he is also desperate to get Town back into the Championship as his legacy and Hurst is the one who almost achieved that.

Not sure it would be good to go back even if his departure had been amicable, but given the way it ended I definitely wouldn't want Hurst back. Don't really wish him ill but I think he proved he saw us as stepping stone and not much more.

Well, I suppose that's the end of the Ipswitch thread, won't be missed. It's Macclesfield for him, time to rebuild the career. Skitty finds out the hard way not to follow the manager. I suppose they had all just set up house there and there aren't many other football jobs within travelling distance of that part of the country. What a week, JA seems to turn the corner and PH crashes out. He never left shrewsbury, he's often promoting his business which is based in Shrewsbury.

Nolan will do nothing in the Championship without his adoptive dad in charge. Bit harsh that our kid. But still, I'd have Nolan back in a heartbeat. I think the likes of Toto are easy enough to find at this level, not so much your box to box goal scoring midfielder. More so if Docherty is off back to Scotland in January. We should definitely inquire, no harm in giving Ipswich a bell...

I’d have him back today.
Sorry to break the populist thread on here but rather than focus on one unfortunate incident (he was going anyway) I want to see us climb the table again under his charge.

If he wanted any chance of a return he shouldn't have sh@t on the doorstep on the way out. Some fans will put ambition above all else. As in they want to see Shrewsbury win games and be successful. They feel they have a better chance of that under Hurst than Askey. See no issue in that.

He was very clear very soon after the play off final he was leaving... It certainly wasn’t all sweetness and light till mid August... also heard they refused to train once those transfer requests were handed in We’ve moved on and so have they. None of them are welcome back

If you believe the shenanigans around Wembley were just an unfortunate incident then I suggest you revisit what happened at that time and possibly dig a bit deeper into the events. Many of us have thoughts on what really happened but obviously they can only remain thoughts. However in my mind that is enough to not want to see PH back at this club.

i find it ironic that Ipswich have done to Hurst what they both did to town, i know many fans were very unhappy in the manner he left,as for some wanting his return to town whilst he saved us from relegation and produced one of the best seasons we have had in recent memory it does not automatically mean he can do it again , he was unable to replicate it at Ipswich and that is why he has been sacked .
i doubt this set back will stop him been ambitious and he may have to go down to a league 1 or league 2 team but i am sure now we see how he operates if that chance came up he would be gone like a flash and i have no issue with ambition just the manner in which he left and doubts about was he fully focused on his job with us at a crucial stage of the season.
i presume Hurst will get a large payout to console himself
let us hope everyone can now close that door (Karama is a b**ch) and get behind our present manager and look forward to an improving season.would it not be ironic if we got promoted under Askey

Not a fan of Askeys appointment and up until the last couple of weeks would have happily shown him the door. He looks as though he's learning to change his tactics to suit the squad (that he built) and hopefully has the turned the corner. I'm still not 100% convinced, but he can have my support for now.
As for Mr Hurst, thanks for 90% of last season, but you left in a way that most of us would not have left a dead-end factory job. You had the support of the whole club and dismissed it out of hand to chase your dream. Sorry it didn't work out, but you'll never be welcome back here for the way you treated the most important people in football, the supporters.

And are we sure that he refused to train? Or was it that the club thought it best they weren't involved. As that was questioned on here at the time and I'm unsure whether we actually got to know what happened. I'm with you that they might well not be "welcomed" back though, I'm sure plenty of fans would be against it (and I also understand that) but like I say, I wouldn't be too bothered if they came back (whether Toto, Nolan or Hurst). I just want to see Town given the best chance to succeed and whilst there are individuals who I would not want near the club (for reasons beyond football) this sort of thing happens. But anyhow, lets be honest. Not going to happen, right?

But I certainly would not welcome any of them back, even though I could understand them moving on at the time And no, I can't see it happening in a million years. All ties were well and truly severed
