Worth a place on the bench.

I would prefer the lad who keeps putting him through, Blackford was superb yesterday, however Dave Jones is old school and neither will be there sadly sadx

Why try our own lads when there are kids at Sunderland, Sheff Wed and Plymouth we can use? (or not, as the case may be)

Kenton Richardson ???

Richardson only got a game because we had about 7 injured defenders, in March, when the loan window wasn't open.

But still, he is a prime example. Our own lad thrown in at the deep end, and performed pretty well. On the other hand the 3 lads we've loaned/signed from other clubs have all turned out to be pretty shit.

Is it really a Pools season without an amusingly incompetent or anonymous loanee?

Not sure I'd cope without at least one a year.

It runs deeper than just our club. Marcus Rashford was only given a chance due to Louis Van Gaal only having 2 recognised strikers at Man Utd.

There should be a minimum limit introduced. 3 players in the match day squad who are youth team products from your own club.

Would like to see Travers, Hawkes, Blackford and Pollock involved in the first team if we are safe with a few games to spare.

Got to imagine Pollock couldnt be further from Jones thoughts if he never even made the bench when we had no centre backs left.

Imagine a cert to be released.

We could probably have a full team of anonymous loanees from the past 5 years alone.

I'll start with Freddie Woodman - Goalkeeper

Harley Wise must be one of the CBs

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 2:16 pm

He wasn't a loanee

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 2:16 pm

Poolie legend David Atkinson would be in that team

Who was that centre forward we got on loan who got injured within the first 10 minutes or so of either his first or second game for us and went back? It was last season and from memory I'm thinking he was from Bristol Rovers but that could be complete bollocks...

Adeji wasn't it or something like that

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 2:39 pm

Adeji was from Newcastle

Could have that little shitehawk Campbell up top.

And didnt Collins bring some Huddersfield centre back/midfielder in on loan?

thetownendfaithful · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 2:43 pm

Matt Crooks

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 2:50 pm

Didn't Rangers sign him?

tREE_wiTH_hAMStER · **Joined:** Sat May 19, 2007 11:00 am **Posts:** 20758

Scored a screamer didnt he one game?

What about that Oliver guy from Sunderland? Pretty sure he came over with another Sunderland player?

Scott Harrison

Really!? I thought it was someone who never played for us! :laugh:

So we currently at:

----------------------Woodman
Atkinson ---(Was he a RB?) Lanzoni --- Boyce ---- ?
Campbell ----- Crooks ----Lynch -------- J.Jones
----------------Harrison ----- Adjei

Or summit, must be a dodgy left back somewhere.....

thetownendfaithful · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 3:17 pm

Brad Halliday played right back, maybe he could go left back

PoolieTom · **Joined:** Tue Aug 31, 2010 2:30 am **Posts:** 779

He was a decent player though. I'd have Kavanagh there myself

Joe Skarz as LB

Joe Mac · **Posted:** Wed Mar 29, 2017 3:45 pm

I can't remember if he was any good or not.

pooliecrab · **Joined:** Tue Dec 16, 2014 9:31 pm **Posts:** 6028

Wasn't the worst left back we've had, Martin Pemberton must be up near the top of that list.
