Those timings are nonsense. I have done the journey a dozen times and it has never taken less than three hours. We usually take 900-1,000 to Carlisle.

We have to go through the middle of Liverpool to get to Cumbria, so it is at least three hours.

It is over three hours on a good day. In reality it was five hours because of Bank Holiday traffic. We have no manager, are 23rd in the form table, and have nothing to play for, so I think it was a decent turnout.

71 Harrogate fans.

Just under six years over his two spells. The longest serving manager we have had since John King in the nineties. I think he will end up at one of the bigger National League clubs, although northern League Two clubs will probably also be interested. He is still a good manager and will have...

We have sacked Micky Mellon. Gutted that it has ended this way, but the decision was probably inevitable. He is a good man and will go down as the second greatest manager in our history. I will always be grateful to him for dragging us out of the Hell Hole that is the National League, and for...

Yes, because none of the outfield players contributed when we won at the team second in the league ? Lol. Lewis would have improved our chances yesterday and I am not sure why you are tying yourself in knots over this relatively trivial point.

Two goals and an assist at Sutton. Which is more than the combined total for the season of the 'strikers' we had on the pitch yesterday. I must have hallucinated his excellent performance at Stevenage two weeks ago when we won the game.

He has scored three this season from relatively few appearances, and would have made a substantial difference yesterday. We won at Stevenage a couple of weeks ago with a front pairing of Lewis and Saunders. Burton and Mumbongo were out of their depth.

Lewis would have played yesterday. He is actually better at centre forward than any of the three who did feature (excepting possibly Saunders in general play) despite being a midfielder, which says it all.

We were also missing Lewis. There is no way we were going to trouble a League Two defence with the forward line we had yesterday. Henmings is the only striker we have who is vaguely competent. 'If we could have strengthened like Gillingham'. If me auntie was me uncle.....

It is difficult to disagree, although we did have half of our normal first team missing today.

418 Hartlepool fans in a crowd of 6,320 at Prenton Park.

We have actually got the 41 year old Joe Murphy back in goal now. We signed two youngsters last season, Doohan and Hewelt, and neither of them are up to it.

A draw was a fair result today. We started the stronger of the two sides and Saunders missed a sitter after fifteen minutes, but having taken the lead Hartlepool grew in confidence and caused us problems. We were not helped by both Lewis and Walker going off injured, in addition to the players...

Hartlepool at home. We are still missing key players in Morris and Hemmings, but I think we will win. Connor Jennings is sure to get a good reception.

Yes, the two strikers were very good aside from the penalty miss. It must be the defensive frailties and off the field shenanigans ?

I am not sure what Mellon could do differently with the group of players available last night. We played two wingers and there was plenty of attacking intent in the starting line up, but our strikers could not hit a barn door and carry very little genuine threat. It was the famed resilience and...

Crawley were the better side tonight and deserved to take something from the game. However, we are finally getting a bit of momentum, despite being without key players. Mellon's substitutions won us the game, with Brad Walker in particular giving us the control in midfield we were lacking. In...

I thought we were the better side today and deserved the victory, certainly for the second half display. In the first half Stevenage had the majority of possession, with a lot of balls into the box, but we defended really well against the aerial stuff with Jordan Turnbull outstanding. After...
