Pools 3 nil up. Mackay, Boyd and Hassan

Front three for Saturday?

Can't do any worse than our present forwards.

No!

Boyd scored a beauty from 25 yards but they were up against boys, he seemed more mobile though than he has for a while.

Mackay scored a tap in but apart from a few runs on the wing in the first half, he wasn`t up to much.

Hassan, built like Justin Fashanu with the touch of a club footed Behan, oh dear, if thats the back up then call for back up!

Behan, would be out of his depth in a puddle, won a few headers in the first half but nowt apart from that.

Triallist Nathan Luscombe, best player on the pitch, midfielder with a good left foot, nice touches and fast as fook for a stocky lad, similar size to Gamble but decent, been released from Mackems apparently.

Triallist Andy Parry, big centre half and put in a good shift, didn`t do himself any harm with his performance and good in the air.

Left back Darren Holden, youth team player, 2nd to Nathan for performance, seemed to get on the end of everything and a good long throw, deffo one to watch.

The rest were ok, yantorno set up the first with some by line trickery, blackford went off after 20 mins after being clobbered so not much to go on, decent game though in windy conditions

Thanks for the report .

Hopefully we can get a few gems on free transfers like Peter Hartley and Paul Murray have turned out to be...

Thought Holden had good game anda couple of good dead ball deliveries in the first half.

Little unsure about Luscombe would need to see him again

Parry if he can give us as good a service as his namesake well worth having , played well but both centre half(Johnson other ) had good games

Behan started well (5 mins) after that he couldn't trap a bag of cement

Boyd his first touch early on meant his second was a foul but good goal and had tried virtually the same earlier which the keeper did well to save, but was up against young ones did seem to be lively and was subbed so may be a pointer for Saturday, Behan played 90 mins so hopefully that mean he wont.

Yantorno, you wont here this often, tore the left back up a new a***hole for the first goal did well to create it.

Far better than those prima dona's of Man U and Chelsea in the Champions (o no we not we only finished in top 4) league

Just for Creosote

Why would you go to all that trouble for a miserable old get like Creodibble?

Principle my old boy, the windbag needs deflating

Childish behavior that.

Its OK Salty, we both know that I am right. As always. Its just a FACT.

I dont actually think I ever claimed as I was the first person to notice Luscombe play either.

But as Monkeybutt doesnt really understand me that well, he wont know the history of the Alan Power fan club.

Some people try, but just never get it. Ah well, nevermind.
