After spending the last 4 or 5 years not putting anything across the counter (mainly because of the crooks in charge) I have decided that I need to update my Hartlepool United personal (and family) stock, I still have nothing with the new badge on and will subtly be dropping hints to all and sundry that I would like a new hat, scarf, mug, top etc off Santa..

This because I am suitably convinced that the current regime at the club now have the best interests of it at heart. In fact the last top I had bought for me is the same as what the chimp above is wearing, can someone please remind me what year/season that was from?
