How come Grayson is managing both teams ? ( or is it the Smon Grayson who played for us as a kid ) ?

Anyone know who the trialist is? Josh Donaldson?

Really good game, pools very impressive big, strong, fast.

Donaldson was the trialist and only trialist today took it well after a good run from miley.

Have to mention the lad from Bromley very good player allthou its a bit difficult to single him out in what was a very impressive performance.

Yes you can say well its only leeds 3rd team but you can only beat whats in front of you and they never got a sniff.

He is the only outfield trialist we have kept on. Took his goal well and would be a useful option to come off the bench.

Smith played the full 90 minutes and looked comfortable, thankfully he appears to be over his injury.

I really enjoyed today’s game with excellent performances from most of our new boys but special praise has to go to Luke Charman who produced a performance that we rarely saw last season, if he continues to play like that, he will be in Pools starting eleven.

Poor show from a so called big club Leeds with only 200+ fans making the 150 mile round trip.
Compare that to a massive club like Rangers when 500+fans made the 400 mile round trip to watch their under 19 team

To be fair I thought that was a decent turnout from the Leeds fans as even their own club site stated it was a team made up of mainly U21/U18 and a couple of players with first team experience. Their first team are actually playing in a tournament ATM.

Its true the 1st team had a game today, but that was in Germany so no excuse for such a poor turnout from there fans.

Give over ! their hardcore fans will have been over in Germany, probably a 1000+. Many of the others don't bother with pre season games, especially when its their reserves playing.

A solid looking defence performance with Smith only having one scary moment when Kouogun let one bounce through. I can't recall Smith having another save to make. Encouraged by the performance against a team with more skill, but Pools dug in & stuck to their task. Topallaj looks athletic & could cause problems for other teams in this league.
A bit disappointed with the attendance for a long-serving player, albeit one who divides opinion amongst the fans. It would be interesting to know if RS was in attendance for a player who is well-deserving of a testimonial

I heard Parkes in the carpark after the game, telling his accomplices "I wouldn't get a game on that performance" or something to that effect

I think Smith was captain yesterday

Need a proper goalie signed up this week and some cover up front---I'd be fine with Hunter and Folarin being let go if we could use their wages combined to sign 1 decent player
