Game of opinions, but I rate Hurst. He's two footed and brave enough to take on a man. Good attitude too. Would love to see the lad do well.

If you don't agree, that's cool, but don't make him the scapegoat we seem to seek out every year.

I think he will have stiff competition for the yellow jersey this season. First of the new signings to make a big error in a game will be seriously in the running.

I know things have improved down there but Brett Pitman's one year deal with Swindon expired this summer and there has been no word at all as to whether he's extended or signed elsewhere (rumours he's left).

A proper lower-league bagsman who would be a lovely complement to our existing strikers. 

Pittman has just signed for Bristol Rovers

Hurst performed well last season. There was that patch around the time askey got sacked that he genuinely seemed like the only interested player and atleast offered us something. Definitely enough to work with and glad we offered him a contract. Just hope we have a plan for him that gets him enough game time

I though Hurst's form only suffered once he was asked to do a more defensive role. When more advanced he stood out as a bright spark, got into advanced positions and often made space for a cross. When he played more defensively he did his job but was unable to provide the required support in attack, and didn't stand out. I don't think he is that pacey, his legs move quickly but he doesn't cover that much ground with each stride. I am optimistic that he can be developed into a good player but I don't think he is a wing back.

I'm no cryptic tweeter but that's not a great image to symbolise Jay Emmanuel Thomas. Surely you'd put up a picture of a plane (a "J-E-T") if it was him.

If it's an image of a Jay then I'm guessing it's potentially someone else called "Jay"...

For Hurst was ok last season, has lots of potential to be a good player, it is just a question of if that talent can be accessed, if not DC will probably release him at the end of his contract. You cannot expect young players to just come into the team a be match winners they need time time develops and mature mentally and physically.
