Pools 1-4 Doncaster....Oates....6,382....Pools score first then Doncaster simply step up a gear!!!!

Our Funeral : Pools 1- 5 Doncaster.

Allesandra to score - no goal celebration.

5005 Attendance.

I'm past caring. I'll just sit in my seat for the last time like a Hamlet advert as it all passes over my head..... and if a fluke accident occurs whereby a certain seat falls through the floor into a sink hole direct to hell, complete with it's occupant, a smile will cross my face.

Hartlepool 0-3 Doncaster, 4900

Pools 2 Doncaster 1 ...................You heard it here first

Knowing our luck a 2-0 win with Newport nicking a win in the 90th to seal our fate

Knowing Pools luck we will win but so will County, but realistically we will get beat about 0 - 0

The game to win was Cheltenham. For me that ensured relegation. I think we'll lose fairly easily but with all the huff and puff seen at Cheltenham. They are too good for us and want to win the league.

Even if we achieve the impossible and get a result, I absolutely can see nothing other than 3 points for Newport. They have the advantage of playing on a beach that they are familiar with against a team with one foot on the holiday bus. I can't see any Notts Co players going in for any 'an injury now will really ruin my holiday' type challenges.

On the other hand, Doncaster can't beat an egg at the minute, it can be better to play against a team with something to play for and for the same reason the shackles are off for Notts Co so can go enjoy their last game on the beach.

There's also the fact that we have always survived when massively up against it, most re-elected club etc.

Who knows?

I think this is it though...I think our luck has run out now.

Pools 2 - 5 Donny

5732 in attendance.

Scenes of vague protest on TV.

the game is live on sky sports from 5:30pm

We have blown to many opportunities in the last few games to decide our own fate and thats the problem. I can,t see us suddenly coming good all of a sudden and Newport blowing it so I can,t bring myself to make any prediction except that some how a miracle takes place. It would be nice if it,s topped of with Coxall and his entourage being arrested by the fraud squad and getting banged up for a very long time.

Then again!

Newport kick off late due to "crowd congestion." Pools 1 Donny 0. Newport have a few minutes on the clock and know they can overtake us. They get that goal and we get mugged like Sunderland did back in the 70's when Coventry City and Bristol City rigged a last 15 mins to save the pair of them. So 1-0 crowd 5,984 and tears all 'round. A trip down to the massage parlour in Church Street and look up on Google where the fuck in Yorkshire Guisely is?

3-0 donnie

Sorry

Lots of paper talk not fulfilment and a bitterly sad day for all true pools supporters as has been said owners managers players come and go but we are here week in week out season in season out but I'm afraid to say this is the end of the football club as I've known it since I was 9 years old some 40 years ago we all moan etc about pools but I really can't get my head around them not being there within the football league my prediction for what it's worth pools 0 donny 3 with the game over by half time and donny floating to the title in an effortless second half

I predict the evens about donny will be long gone by Saturday .

just thinking something similar. guiseley is between leeds and harrygate just past the original harry ramsden cafe. its a real welcolm to reality with a ground that looks like accrington but about a third of its size. other delights on the horizon could be salford again and don,t forget barrow. who could.

Pools 1 v Donny 2

Depends on how Donny view winning the title, they could of won it weeks ago, but have they done a Pools when they got promoted with games to spare and didn't seem too bothered about winning the title and in fact were guano for the remainder of the season, or is it just coincidence that they have lost last 3 games? Exeter proved that hunger to get into play offs outweighed the cherry on the cake of winning the title, they may be happy with just promotion, or maybe not!.

It's in Leeds Mr 2-0.

Nice area actually

Will it be dark enough around 7.15pm for a floodlight failure? In saying that ours probably don't work anyway.

We know how this will go.

All the big build up this week. The well intentioned rhetoric from players etc then infront of a big crowd and the watching nation we go one down inside 5 mins, 2 by halftime and Doncaster cruise to 3-0 playing as if it's an exhibition game before James Coppinger finishes the scoring.

We then have to suffer again another team winning the title on our ground as their fans celebrate in wild abandon while we suffer the indignity and ignominy of relegation out of the football league.

The only thing that would cheer me up is Gary Coxall falling down the stairs in the CK stand and landing face first onto my boot

Can't see Donny not being up for winning the title. Don't you gain more cash the higher up you finish ? Plus they may be on a bonus for winning the league.
Interestingly, Jeff was presenting the Breakfast Show on Talksport this morning & the main thrust was Sane & Rashford. Cheat or no cheat ? Jeff was firmly on the side of damning the pair of them for their antics.
Was dying to ask him, "picture the scene, Jeff. 93 minutes on the clock at Victoria Park on Saturday.Pools need a goal to stay in the Football League, & Amond takes a dive to earn a penalty. What would be your reaction there"?
Naturally, i couldn't be arsed to ring in.
If you're reading this Jeff - care to comment ?

And the point is.......?

Despite all the 'fighting talk', I don't think this team have the character to produce the goods on the day. It all looks like window dressing now.
Cant't see a way out.

4-0 to Doncaster. Newport will lose too.

We need Born Toulouse to find a couple of his grandad's old Christmas cards and send them to Donny and Notts sharpish.

We could play out this scenario 10 times

would get relegated 9 times, stay up once

im more hoping and praying this is the once

Can't help thinking we've upset the odds more than our entitlement when it comes to avoiding relegation.

The scenario.

Scene 1. The crowd get right behind the team.
Scene 2. The players tear about a bit.
Scene 3. The crowd get even more behind the team.
Scene 4. Doncaster score.
Scene 5. The heads drop.
Scene 6. The crowds heads drop.
Scene 7. We drop ...out of the league
Scene 8. Fans behind the chairman, till he shook them off at the M18!
Scene 9. Tumbleweeds roll across the pitch.
Scene 10. Colonel announces his takeover of club.

Pools win
Newport draw

Transission ended.

If the Colonel took over forget housing development, the Vic would be the UK's biggest takeaway.

Pools 4-1 Doncaster.
Newport are trailing 1-0 to Notts County, however they equalise in the 85th minute.
Pools game finishes and there is still 5 mins added on time left in the other game to play......

....then it comes over the tannoy that North Korea have just launched a nuclear attack on the UK.

2-1 to pools. got to believe.

You missed scene 3a) a few misplaced passes and Featherstone passes one backwards and the idiots surface.

Yep that's true you're not allowed to pass backwards or sideways at Pools for some fans.

It's the hope that gets you in the end isn't it (however small a shred it is)

I feel like we're on the edge of a black hole about to sucked into oblivion. . Who knows they've had plenty of chances to "pull it off " over the last few weeks and they haven't. 15 points clear in January and it's come to this..payback time for Ronnies Great Escape....truth be known we dodged a bullet that time and we've been shit ever since.. I feel it's our turn now ..I hope to God I'm wrong..

Most of Pools' players are heading where they belong: into non-league football, hopefully not on our books!

0-3 would be a realistic prediction today.

Penalty to Pools to stay up. Featherstone passed backwards to Walker who smashes it over the stand

This match has all the makings of a "How the f*** did we pull that off?"....or, "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopooooooooo!" occasion.

If we do pull it off what are we going to call it? We can't call it the great escape because we didn't even need to escape until two weeks ago.
The great Flirt with Death? The great "You'll never take us alive"? The great Jammy Bastads? The great Deus-ex-Machina?
And what am I going to get tattooed on my other buttock next to Ronnie? Superman doing that thing where he catches a bewer falling from a skyscraper just before she hits the ground?

We can call it the 'out of the frying pan into the fire' Legend.

The Vic falls silent. Even the circling seagulls are hushed. This is not the time to scavenge for pie. All eyes are on mobile phones and earphones are plugged in. BBC Tees is still waffling on about Boro so all ears wait for the stadium announcer. Tick tock. 1 minute gone. Still no change. "Come on Notts County score!" someone cries as if their demands could be heard in South Wales. Tick tock! 2 minutes gone. "Get in!" comes from the left. There's excited commotion, but it's just some knobead checking his racing results. Tick tock. 3 minutes gone. All the Donny fans have drifted away. They've lost the title, but are looking forward to next season in League 1. Where will Pools be? Tick tock! 4 minutes gone. It's itchy bum time. So itchy that a sea of Anusol couldn't sooth it. Tick tock! % minutes gone. The stadium announcer's microphone crackles.......

Newport 1 up
..we are 1 down....:/

Doncaster and Newport both winning 1-0 It's over!!

If only we could have played with this passion and desire in the previous 6 games

Tick Scenes 1-4

45 minutes and not much to complain about. The lads are getting stuck in. Shame about the goal, unlucky from magnay.

Pools have turned up, just haven't got the quality. Their keeper was lucky wiping out Oates as was their number 4 for studs up foul on Allesandra.

The mountain we had to climb has just became Everest and we've got 45 mins to conquer it with a crooked cockey selling our oxygen supplies. Cheers Gary...

If we'd have played like this the last 3 games we'd be have been safe.
