Although Pools have a new dark lord in Godwin Antwi, who does look very impressive!

Godwin For Ghana!

I think the fundamental difference bewteen the old and new 'dark lords' is that Godwin Antwi can actually play football.

Marcus was likeable but laughably shite, to think we got promoted with him playing up front for half of the season.....

Can we really use the words 'dark lord' these days to refer to such people?

Ah but what about that unforgettable diving "toe poke" v Torquay, where in injury time MR launched himself stretching every sinew and muscle to head the ball into the back of the net followed by the iconic image of him lying prostrate in a mound of snow piled up against the Rink End advertising hoarding, black against white...total quality man, most memorable!

Pools v Oxford,promotion season.
2-1 Humphries to score 1st @ 66/1.
Humps duly scores 1st,we also score again & they score.2-1 lasts for ages with Marcus missing chance after chance until injury time when I starts thinking what to spend my winnings on & up pops Marcus with our 3rd

why not he his dark and a king amongst players and wil be remembered fondly by poolies
