Paul Hurst: 'I hope this is our time'

Grimsby Town manager Paul Hurst reveals that he has every confidence that his side can overcome Bristol Rovers in the Conference Premier playoff final on Sunday.

Grimsby Town manager Paul Hurst believes that his side are well equipped to earn promotion to League Two providing that they can "handle" the occasion of the Conference Premier playoff final.

The Mariners face Bristol Rovers on Sunday afternoon as they look to end a five-year stay in non-League football, and Hurst, who joined the club in 2011, believes that the club can upset the odds and overcome the league runners-up at Wembley Stadium.

The 40-year-old told BBC Radio Humberside: "I hope it is our time. I think we've got good experience, energy and we know we're organised. It is about handling the game.

"The mission when we first arrived at the football club was to get back to the Football League. While we're not in there it is a chain around us and we want to break it."

Grimsby failed to win or score a goal against Rovers in their two fixtures during the regular league campaign.
