Strongest bench for a very long time

Bench stronger than the line up.

Cheers Gray. Charman on the bench

Charman making bench is interesting….hoping the new lad gets on fairly soon

There's a ton of attacking options waiting to come on. Can't remember the last time you could say that about a Pools bench.

IMO the attacking options should start, Seems he may be expecting the worst, And bring on the attackers if/when needed.

feeling naively optimistic about this....in theory combine the style sarll wants to play, with some of that lot off the bench against a tired team and we are in the money
hope he uses his subs early given we have 5

Only surprise is Young on the bench--Sarll rates Smith below Dixon, so why loan a keeper you think is behind both of those in the pecking order--smacks of a mistake to me, that will get rectified the first time we lose/keeper makes a mistake so just get it done now

bit like woking were when we lost that.

The subs did nothing.
Maybe change half the team for Boston.
What's the keeper situation. Thought last week was the end of his loan?

Loan
Meant end of monthly contract

The winger provided a spark and Campbell was a bit more forward thinking. Wouldn't have taken Mani off with 30 mins to go.
Roshaun has to start on Tuesday and we need to get him and Mancini on the ball more.

so did charman and madine gave fans hope but apart from a goalmouth scramble we still never looked like scoring. its fine bringing players on to change things if you have faith in keeping ones like mancini and manni d on as well. remember we were playing a team with a similar record as us in goals scored and only one more conceeded who were as boring as us and looked quite happy playing for a point which that late fre kick they had showed.

Rewind to 10 days ago n Sarly was stating MannyD n Madine is a front line I expect to work. 2 big lads up front.

Why not do it then!???????????

he must have seen em both together training. is it something though of a statement for the fans benefit to give us hope rather than seeing it happen. it seemed a pre planned change in his mind between em both and just the timing of it when he did it to decide.

Would've thought bringing Madine on alongside Mani for the last 20 mins would've been a better option yesterday. And it would have given us all an idea of if it will work.
Personally I think we need Joe Grey playing closer to Mani to get the best out of them both.

Would have liked to see Mani still on when the wide players came on.

Think he,s tactics are not to lose, Little bit of a shitty arse.

draws are two points lost both home and away apart from getting a last ditch equaliser like the wealdstone game caused.
