My understanding of Swann getting rid of Hurst was that he believe we were going with youngsters which were under pinned by some experience, then Swann moved the goal posts and decided to just sign kids and Hurst didn’t agree with that plan, spoke up and was put in a position where he couldn’t stay anymore.
Swann went ahead with the braindead all youth policy then quickly backtracked by signing experience soon after it was apparent the so called youth plan was a load of shite and we lacked leadership.
This is why chairman should sign off on things in the boardroom and leave the footballing side of things to footballing people.
If Swann didn’t meddle Hurst would maybe have been here now and we would have been a lot better for it. As I said, Swann backtracked anyway when we signed experience soon after.
Another balls up to go with the other pile of crap he’s caused.
