PAUL Hurst has distanced himself from speculation linking him and fellow boss Rob Scott with the vacant managerial position at Doncaster Rovers.
Following former Rovers boss Dean Saunders' move to Wolves, rumours have surfaced that linked the Mariners' managerial duo with a move to the League One club.
Many even suggested that Scott and Hurst were in fact favourites for the position, but Hurst said if that is the case, it is news to him.
He said: "I think Rob received a text to say that was the rumour going around.
"But whether it's genuine or not, we're very much focused on Grimsby Town and getting this club promotion.
"It's nice to be linked, as it is when players are linked with clubs, because it shows that we're doing something right.
"At the minute, we're top of the league that we're in so I guess we're doing all right, but as far as we're concerned it's pure speculation."
