Line up

Renamed in memory of John Hawksworth, a stalwart member who passed this day 2nd August 2020. RIP Mr Monkeybutt.

Sadly we must add the name of Kevin Minton, Aka Mr Ripper who passed 30/6/22. Kev was also Mr politically incorrect but a nicer lad you could never meet.

Cracking result and a great away following of 337.
Team spirit is clearly a step up from previous seasons under SG.

Hopefully we back this up on Saturday with anutha win.
Then end our August Bank Holiday suicide.
Surely that scenario won't happen again.
UTP.

this bank holiday monday game is absolutely tin pot non league. we play on saturday and the league expect us to be fit and rested for monday with long journey on sunday to southend. who makes these fixtures up as surely a more local match for everyone should have been announced. the game becomes lottery to which team recovers from there previous game quicker with southend having a big edge with a full days rest and recovery. something managers st a big stall by but obviously the league doesn,t.

Great win though, some really good stuff first half. Nice to see a Pools team fight like that.

Not for the first time on the money Billingham

Spot on. It's complete bollocks. Carlisle have a 5.30 kick at Wealdstone on Saturday then a home game on Monday. Mark Hughes will be getting his excuses in early!

think everyone associated with the clubs knows this. we might be ok with one out like after the benn injury but take 4 out of the starting line up the team might look very different. this could easily happen for next mondays farce.

Don't think anyones mentioned it.
But we were top last night for 18 minutes until Wealdstone got that 85th minute winner.


Maybe this Saturday.
