He has certainly lost his way, such a shame.

Is a bit sad to see. Although got to ask questions of this local businessman who offered him and Town the world, and disappeared from sight soon after he appeared. His false promises seem to have hindered Greene and meant his "plans" never really got afoot.

Sorry but I disagree with that entirely, DG managed his players very well at York Street.
I think Boston Town have the problem, they have been struggling for some years with managers coming and going for different reasons.
It all comes down to an unambitious chairman and board that are happy to stay in the league that they are in.
Young managers want success and soon get frustrated when no doubt they are promised everything when they join, and then soon realise that it's all a load of lies and are being strung along.
It wouldn't have took DG long to work that out, and why should he be Mr Chairman's fall guy.
As ElIdolo said earlier where is Mr money bags pestforce gone with all of his big talk and ambition.
Boston Town has sadly got the tag as an non ambitious club, which will always have trouble attracting players who want success.
The Board wanted DG to get you safe and stay in your current league, he did that and now the money and big promises have all disappeared once again.
Sadly until the current owners sell up and go, nothing will change, and you will remain a club in limbo.

Without being horrible or nasty, what do we think has happened with DG, it seems to me that he has somehow lost his desire for football management.
He did a great job with us at York Street up until his final season and departure.
He now seems like a person who just hasn't got any direction in his career.
Such a shame.

Like a lot of managers. when you do well you think you cant fall and it goes to your head. Thats what happened at Boston. And when it bit him he cracked and lost his way

We haven't seen the last of Greene - I don't really think Town were a good fit for him, especially seeing as promised investment appears not to have materialised. Once he finds a club he's happy at, perhaps a little further south, I can see him being successful again.

Scott and Hurst were more successful than Greene and we would be an established National league club now if they had stayed a bit longer. Very good managers in there short time with us. UTP

Hurst could be looking for another club if Ipswich don't start winning. Harsh but that's the way it works

Don't know how you work that one pp.


Facts .  Greene got a 6th , 3rd and 5th finish in the NORTHERN CONFERENCE .  (And had won two championships with St Neots )


Hurst  finished 3 in the EVO LEAUGUE with a team mostly inherited from David Holdsworth at Ilkeston .

Buggered off to Fishy before he managed  to qaulify for P /Os in Nothern Con .

Can you explain to Grimsby fans how it took him 5 years to get them promoted on gates of 6000 and a generoues sponsor ,   when you claim he would have got us promoted another league if  he  "had stayed a little longer " ?

Said Hurst and Scott mate, you just on about Paul Hurst on his own. Greene did a good job for us, just went on one season too long, hey ho. UTP

Fair enough mate ,    the pair together did not achieve what Greene did .  Can't argue with the record books .

Not a shock though, l thought they rushed into that appointment.
Culverhouse was always going to be hard to replace.
Would DG be any better there, I don't know it's a tough one and l think the Lynn fans would seriously get on his case, probably worse than some Boston fans did.

Lee Beevers and the other assistant manager, another former Pilgrim, Sam Gaughran, also both sacked by The Linnets.
