we wouldn't have scored if we played 'till midnight

we gave away a silly/stupid goal and then we gave ourselves a mountain to climb

it's always a difficult place to come and get a result :roll:

we'll be up for it rage

we'll come out all guns blazing

we'll treat them with the utmost respect

no disrespect to Hartlepool, but....... rage

That cropped up yet again in Saturday's Guardian. David Pleat was waxing lyrical about Jose Mourinho's qualities, and he finished his assessment with........ "but could he do it at Hartlepool?" :evil:

And yesterdays Times when talking about that Soccerex Conference in Dubai that Hodcroft always bangs on about, along the lines of 'and even old Hartlepool will be there'. damned bounders.

well all this makes a refresher- ing change to all the usual (tre bor)ing stuff on here.
Anyway, what did everyone think of that Aussie born ex-England left back Tony Dorito?

'We're just taking each game as it comes.'

'We're not taking anything for granted.'

'This was their cup final.'

'It's back down to earth now away at Macclesfield on tuesday night.'

'If that goal had been scored in the premiership it would have been replayed for months.'

'It was backs against the wall at times.'

'The centre forward went down like he'd been shot.'

'Not many teams will come here and get a result.'

'We just gave away sloppy goals.'

'We just need that litle bit of luck at the moment.'

"I haven't had the chance to see the video at the moment "- i.e. the manager's team has done something wrong or scored an offside goal/penalty that shouldn't have been awarded

"the referee and the linesman must have been the only people in the ground who thought that was a bookong/sending off/penalty/goal" - i.e. when the decision has gone against the manager.

Funny how they only see things when it suits them to. refred

When you do that with footballers like he said about Leeds... I've kept really quiet, but I'll tell you something, he went down in my estimation when he said that - we have not resorted to that. But I'll tell ya - you can tell him now if you're watching it - we're still fighting for this title, and he's got to go to Middlesbrough and get something, and... and I tell you honestly, I'd love it if we beat them, love it!”
