Analysis – BBC Radio Shropshire sports editor Nick Southall:
Shrewsbury Town’s patience with head coach Paul Hurst and his assistant Chris Doig finally ran out after the FA Cup defeat at Salford.
An emergency board meeting was held on Sunday morning and that is when the decision was made to part company with the duo.
It would have been an agonising decision for chairman Roland Wycherley who is very close to Hurst and brought him back to the club after his previous stint in the 2017-18 season led Town to the League One play-off final, losing out to Rotherham United.
His second spell at Shrewsbury did not fare as well, albeit in very different circumstances.
Hurst was working under director of football Micky Moore, not as a stand-alone manager in his own right.
There is no doubting Hurst’s credentials and the fans will long remember the halcyon days under his stewardship.
Unfortunately, the old adage ‘never go back’ seems true in this instance.
