Career
Early career
Hurst started his career as a Tottenham Hotspur apprentice, but could not break into the first team. He joined Barnsley in 1994, where he was sent out on loan to many clubs including Swansea City, Scarborough, and Mansfield Town.
In 1997 he dropped out of the professional game and had a spell at Emley in the Northern Premier League. Since then he has played for Ayr United and Stockport County, and was even top goalscorer for Chesterfield with 20 goals in all. After Chesterfield, Hurst played for Notts County where he was the club's top goalscorer with 15 goals in the 2004–05 season. Despite having scored nine goals in the 2005–06 season, Hurst was released from his Notts County contract on 29 December 2005.
He joined Shrewsbury days later. After scoring on his Shrewsbury debut against cross-border rivals Wrexham, Hurst scored twice more in fifteen further matches before the season's end. An injury-hit pre-season saw Hurst have back and achilles problems and lose his place in the team at the start of 2006–07.
Shrewsbury Town
By late September he had yet to return to the first-team, and as a result Shrewsbury sent him on loan to Bury for a month, in the hope of his regaining match fitness and goalscoring form.[3]
Bury
Hurst's Bury debut saw him hit two goals against Barnet in a 2–2 draw. After accumulating five goals in five league games,[4] on 26 October 2006, the loan was extended until January 2007. An undisclosed transfer fee has been agreed for Hurst who, in the January 2007 transfer window, signed a permanent contract lasting until the end of 2007–08.[5] note. On 18 May, it was announced that Glynn has been released by Bury at the end of his contract.
Gainsborough Trinity
Despite being linked with a move to Wrexham and playing a couple of pre season friendlies for Chester City, Hurst eventually signed for non-League outfit Gainsborough Trinity, scoring on his debut.
Hyde
On 4 December 2009, he joined Conference North outfit Hyde United.[6] He made his debut on 12 December 2009 in a 4–0 away defeat to Alfreton Town in the Conference North.[7] In February 2010 Hyde announced that he would become their assistant manager after former assistant boss Gerry Harrison left erlier that month.[8] On 10 September 2010 Hurst parted ways with Hyde to try to resurrect his playing career, which he was not able to do with them.[9]
FC United of Manchester
Hurst signed for FC United of Manchester after watching them in a 3–0 victory over Radcliffe Borough in the FA Cup, on 11 September 2010.[10] He scored for the club on his debut the following weekend. Glynn Hurst retired on 8 January 2011[11]
International career
Hurst represented the South Africa U23.[12] earning a total of five caps.[2]
