Pools chase former hero

August 20, 2008

FORMER Pools favourite could be just weeks away from re-joining the club.
Hartlepool United are one of a trio of clubs leading the chase for the former promotion hero.

Pray to God that its Dimi

Tommy Miller would be better. Pools are chronically light in midfield.

Ah but he's not a promotion hero is he.

Tommy Widdrington instead then.

Signing Dimi would propel us several places than if we kept ALB in goal.

Of the 3 goals we've conceded so far, I dare say Dimi would have stopped 2, possibly all of them.

Come on Tax you cant blame ALB for the penalty against Colchester, a penalty save is always a bonus. I not sure Dimi would have saved Tranmere's goal on Saturday. So I have Dimi saving 1 out 3.

I am not blaming ALB for any of them.

He got a hand to the penalty. Dimi saved much harder penalties than that in the promotion season.

Saturdays goal was a bit soft for me and I think an excellent keeper would have saved it. Dimi is an excellent keeper.

They are a different class of keeper IMO

I agree different class of keeper altogether, but your original post read between the lines as if ALB was at fault for at least 2 of the goals conceded.

Not at all, I don't blame him for anything so far. If we want to seriously push for the play-offs though we need a better keeper.

I can only imagine it being Dimi. My initial thought was Boydy (if rumours are true regarding Barker leaving) but just a quick check on Wikipedia and Boydy left before promotion season!!1

Not before the 2002/3 promotion season he didn't. :wink:

He didn't play much of a part in that like. We didn't need to use him 'cos we had Hendo. :laugh:

Nicky Southall perhaps. :grin:

I thought we couldn't afford another keeper which is why Soutar wasn't offered a contract.

I would expect Dimis wages to be more than we would have offered Soutar. Maybe we've had a big bid for Budtz. confised

which has been out for about 3 weeks. :roll:

who would you rather have dimi or soutar ????

its a no brainer, and i havent even seen soutar play.

we need a keeper, dimi is nearly fit, he is available, he wants to play for pools, the fans want him back. wheres the problem ?

His signing on fee?
His wages?

If he signs for us this season I will give you a postal order to the value of £3.82

tigro · **Posted:** Wed Aug 20, 2008 8:10 pm

if he is weeks away from signing wouldnt that rule him out as the transfer deadline is 31st august isnt it?

Hawklord · **Joined:** Thu Aug 17, 2006 10:27 pm **Posts:** 3115

Could still get him on loan for the rest of the season as an option.

tigro · **Posted:** Wed Aug 20, 2008 8:16 pm

very true, cant be anyone else other than dimi, unless the mail is making up shite again to boost sales
