Any of them got new clubs yet aside from Umerah

Cooke fancied himself so maybe he’s expecting a call from the big boys after they see no one at the euros can blame the ref for losing possession as well as he does


Wonder which treatment table Lacey shows up on ?

Hastie I assume will be bringing the average iq down of some team in Scotland

Crawford I expect we will see again, maybe at Fylde?

Sarcasm about ex-players is a risky business for Poolies - if they come up against us for a new club they're pretty much nailed on to play a blinder and/or score. Fondop and Olomola both did it last season. Wouldn't put it past Wreh or Ndjoli, never mind the ones you mentioned

I'll have money on a Killip clean sheet if he ever crosses our path

I heard they all signed for Amazon.

Don't think we'll see much of them in our league to be fair.

Most of our players go down the leagues it shows how bad the recruitment is.

killip somehow was the exception to the norm.

Shows how bad Barnsleys recruitment is????

Yeah barnsley are going through a bit of turmoil at the minute, shows how bad they have become when killip is deemed good enough, saying that his performance against stockport was light years ahead of what either of our goalies did last season.

His performance against Stockport was light years ahead of what he'd done with any kind of consistency through his Pools career.

Very true sad thing is id have him back over the two we have now and i thought killip was a major problem.

Well if they went up the leagues BP and co would be complaining why we let them go. I would expect most players let go by clubs especially at our level drop down the leagues.

and the ones that find another club at the same level were either tapped up before the season ended or want away anyway once their contract runs out like manny D did.

If your doing well we would expect players to be leaving for higher clubs. If we sold mancini to Portsmouth for 500k no one in their right mind would be moaning. It helps progress the club. But we dont bring enough quality in thats why we moan.

There’s better out there than the three of them.

Crawford will end up back at Chester

Cooke is rumoured to be Spenny bound.

Hastie will end up highland division along with Paterson.

Not quite in the released category, but I see Shelts has joined Barnet from Oldham

That's a great move for Shelton, chance of a third promotion out of the NL after Salford and Pools.

He's Barnet's 9th signing of the season after losing in their play-off semi-final last year! It's pretty obvious they're looking for the strength in depth to win the league outright.

Pay decent wages Spennymoor.
Gary Liddle there now.
Done well for himself since he knocked Pools back.

Not so sure they're as well paid at Spennymoor as previously, the money bags Chairman's businesses are on their bones if not bust already. Don't think the investment is there anymore, lots of cuts which didn't impress the fans and I think even the Official Supporters club meets away from the ground now instead of using the stadium bar.
I'd honestly expect Cooke to be wanting much more than any NLN club will pay.

Liddle signed for Whitby the other week I think

Yeh Shields are skint im hearing - they will be wanting to offload that Blackett for some cash id imagine. Again a player i think we should be busting balls to get !

I thought you said we'd pretty much signed him?

At least Paterson put the effort in.
