The dark bunker.

Do we need this function?

According to the Fiends site, the club are investigating the people who are making up the news stories and he is banning people over there, it`s his ball syndrome and only his bessies can play!

Any truth in that Mark, see your signed in?

Will the detectives be getting horses heads in their beds?

Is Mr Blue the fella that has met the Chairman as a fans 'representative' ?

monkeybutt · **Posted:** Mon Dec 26, 2016 11:25 pm

I believe so as the head of the fiends of hufc.

Odd. Just tried to reply to the Colonel saying that horse heads are probably a bit expensive and it turns out I've reported him. Not sure what I reported him for but I'm sure he deserves it.

It is all absolutely pathetic.

Cringeworthy behaviour from grown men.

Everything about following Pools right now is truly depressing and some of the shite I read in recent weeks from certain people genuinely embarrasses me. We as supporters as are the constant we will always be here, players, managers, owners and chairman come and go we are in it until we cark it. So surely it's us who should be collectively waking up and smelling the coffee and pulling together?

Where is the passion? Why would some rather point score because the perceive to not like certain individuals. I'm not just talking about some of the people who post on the other forum either, a few on here are nearly as bad (not quite as bad a couple like that would be almost be impossible *cough that Richo bloke*) But for fucks sake wake up people!!!!

I thought the "relationships" between differing "factions" had improved lately, but once again they have taken a turn for the worse and now seem to be at an all time low. Really find all this so hard to understand.
One board seriously questioning the intentions of the clubs owner(s) and backing this up with what appears to me to be fairly factual information, and the other claiming it all to be rumour and innuendo and that there is nothing to worry about.
Well I am very worried, things both on, and probably off, the field are a cause for concern and all fans seem to want to do is point score off each other.

Another brilliant post by chip and one by geoffn sd well.

Sadly the two boards are poles apart but I find it incredible that they are so far apart on this issue.

Nor why the other board have absolutely buried their heads in the sand.

If anyone at HUFC need to speak to me then they have my name, my phone number and email address. I can also be contacted on Facebook and here. I have noticed two Pools officials logged in tonight and neither have sent me a message. (Mark Simpson and Arthur89).

If they're looking for me then they're not looking too hard. Alternatively it could be complete bollocks. My guess is that the latter is more likely.

Yep, my belief is that GC is fairly innocent. I think he's been dropped in the shit and trying desperately to get through it. I just don't think that bluffing is the way to sort it. He should be open and I think he'll find people will rally round.

Like what's been said already it's about 10 people, who clearly don't like what's been said on the different message boards. This is a miniscule amount in the scheme of things. Over the next few months we will possibly find out the intentions of the club or find out the actual mess we are in. It will probably be the latter, but as fans I'm sure when the shit really hits the fan 99% of us will pull in the right direction. It shows what can be done at dario. 4 years ago they where getting beat at team Northumbria while playing out of town. Now they have a 3300 capacity ground with plans to expand and a genuine chance of conference football next year. A thing quite a few laughed at just last year. If we're not careful we will be playing them ourselves next year.

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Tue Dec 27, 2016 1:31 pm

The other board seem to have a strange obsession with the Bunker, think there is about 3 threads dedicated to us. They are upset because of the success of the detective work, which I assume is the inside info some of them thought they had and leading to this so called arennouncement in January. I think the announcement won't happen as it's public knowledge about the financing for he masterplan but the success of the detectives has scuppered that.

I really don't understand why they are so upset at it all, they seem to change their opinion on Coxall every week. Personally I don't trust him, he seems a canny bloke who I think has been done over by Goldberg. The finance deal doesn't make any sense at all, people are accepting the winding up orders and tax debt because Coxall said everything is fine. I genuinely hope it somehow works out but I can't see it happening.

I will be over the moon if the lads on the other forum are right and it's all bullshit. I want my club to succeed on and off the field.

Unfortunately the facts are in the corner of the detectives at the moment.

I would just like the moderator there to explain why he feels its right to mock this place and the detective work done.

That work might just help save our club.

Nothing they found out has proven to be incorrect. So why the apparent pisstaking?

And I am sure it was his board that gave the chairman the ridiculously childish nickname.

Just tell us why?

Mr Blue makes an allegation that the club is going to oust ( sic ) the detectives, but does not state who within the club has told him this. Not that we need "ousting " of course, because Gary Coxhall knows who I am, and he knows who John is. He also knows how to contact us directly and indirectly, and there seems to be an (incorrect) assumption by Tony that we do not speak to each other off the record.

Neither John or myself have an axe to grind, and as stated ad nauseum, neither of us are members of the Trust board, or speak on behalf of that organisation.

Nothing we have said has been untrue, nor has it been said out of malice towards Gary Coxhall. Both John and myself have said we find him very charismatic. If he genuinely wants what is best for Hartlepool United then we are on the same page. We just have a different opinion on how that can be best achieved.

What Mr Blue does with his message board is entirely up to him. If he wants to ban people because they disagree with him that is his prerogative, though I find it a tad disingenuous for him to do so on the basis he considers their comments to be detrimental to the club, given the amount of abuse the current manager and playing staff get which goes unchecked on both boards and on Facebook. It would appear to be okay to slate the manager every week and demand he be chased out of town, but not okay to ask any questions about the way the whole show is run. As I say though, what he does with his message board is up to him, I used to be a Moderator on here and I know its tough to make judgement calls when you are emotionally attached, which is why I stopped doing it.

Ultimately I find it hard enough to keep up to speed with what's being said on this message board, without reading another one. I was told a thinly veiled threat had been made against me on there, I had a quick look, and have laughed it off.

I work in a Legal Department, I have work colleagues I interact with every day who are solicitors, and a couple are barristers. I wouldn't state things on here I didn't 100 per cent believe to be factually correct, without quantifying the statement by stating ( as I did with the Goldberg comments the other day that it was alleged he had left but ) we had no supporting evidence. Given the information came from someone very high up within the club, one is tempted to take it at face value.

As I said the other day, in an ideal world fans would pull together, but you are never going to get agreement from everybody on everything.

Is Mr Blue the old bald bloke?

Therein lies the problem poolymad, most of us who tried to have a discussion or stick up for the trust/bunker/felching etc have been banned, because the mates board and the admins ban you for having a difference of opinion to theirs :hand:

The same people having a chat every day, if someone comes along and joins in and upsets the equilibrium, the ball gets taken home, to coin a poolie chant " He is just a man in a jacket"!

The bunker is a forum, where opinions can be aired without the fear of being banned(unless your a total 'lovely lovely person') in comparison.

This opinion is my own and not affiliated with the trust or the wheel tappers and shaved scrotum club.

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Tue Dec 27, 2016 4:44 pm

It's all quite sad really and as PJ mentioned we are all grown men here. The story as far as I can see it is a few people took it upon themselves to check up on the club, they found out some information that is a cause for concern which in turn forced the club/GC to make a statement. People can either choose to believe the statement or not. I literally don't see how this can be turned into a negative thing, especially when the term "Detective" was thrown into the mix by that keyboard warrior "journalist". It's not for people to start saying shit like "Should of let the trust deal with it", what if this information was found out by somebody who had zero to do with the trust? I bet there wouldn't be any uproar at all! Or if the local rags found this out they would be hailed as a saviour and looking out for the best interest of the club, but because it's the bastard bunker trust, dummies have been thrown out.

I genuinely don't understand why people are so trusting of JPNG, they are a virtually unknown recruitment firm based in Essex, they have zero cash and we have had 3 winding up orders in the last year. This isn't an attack on Coxall, I've met him before and he comes across as a decent bloke who maybe is a bit out of his depth. He loves Twitter which appeases a lot of fans (including myself in the early days) as we had communication. I'm not having a go at those who do believe and trust him as it's their choice but people really need to look beyond words he says on Twitter or these private conversations he seems to have with people.

Without speaking on Chips behalf, I don't think he was the one doing any of the detective work, he may have talked about it a bit as did I but I don't think he was the one of the ones doing any digging. He's also not on the board of the trust either. The other lot love mentioning his name but I feel that's a down to a personal vendetta.

Just for clarity then, Chip has nothing to do with The Trust, other than being a member. He is of course also a regular poster on here, which for some reason seems to equate to the same thing in some eyes.
