    Boxing Day

    (shrugs) He was top scorer and Poty, instrumental in getting Pools promoted, but was given dog's abuse for taking a better offer rather than stay with a club that made little effort to keep him. It can be amusing to see such bitter ingratitude repaid with a goal or two. But sod that, I'm not...

    Boxing Day

    We should be in good numbers and great voice. A bunch of our more obnoxious fans will likely spend almost as much time abusing Rhys Oates as supporting the team but hey ho. If I was a neutral I'd hope he has a blinder and scores the winner. But I'm not neutral so bollocks to that. We can win...

    January window, are you worried?

    I'm more worried / cynical about a lack of incoming business than I am about potential player losses. Raj Singh withheld a large amount of the budget (believed to be £250-300k) he'd agreed with Dave Challinor. On top of that we received a six figure sum by way of compensation when DC left...

    Boxing Day

    We played no games at all in the January, and just once in the February (Torquay away). We didn't play a single home game between December 22nd and March 16th!

    Tuesday 7th & Wednesday 8th December

    All true, and no surprise that nothing's been done because it would cost money and, well, Singh. But that's not the reason the atmosphere was low-key tonight. Nobody was banned, or stopped from chanting, singing, drumming. A bunch of fans simply chose not to. They hurled their toys...

    Marvin Morgan

    Sad news. I was surprised that he came to us considering he had been on the receiving end of racial abuse at the Vic. But he put the effort in during his brief spell, and his only goal was a winning one. In a spell when we needed all the points we could get, his contribution was appreciated...

    EFL Trophy

    According to the FA site, his suspension runs until the 4th, so he'll miss Exeter. The suspension is for '"all first team games" but I understand that the Papa John is treated separately. Mind you, the same FA site reckons we've had a player called Jordan suspended for over five years...

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    All the last month or so has done is to illustrate that Hartlepool and Stockport both have some weird obsessive deluded bellends on social media. I already knew that we did, but I suppose it's good to see that we're not alone.

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    Antony Sweeney, first team coach and former player (400+ appearances for club) has been in caretaker charge since Dave Challinor left to take the Stockport job four weeks ago. It's understood that he doesn't want the job permanently, and is being linked with a possible reunion with Challinor at...

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    Would be a tough one to get the fans onside. He downed tools to force a move away when he played here.
