Another appalling Mail article....

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.

What Mutley is saying is true though, you can’t just brush under the carpet more ridiculous trouble causing, which has yet again reared it’s head in the last week. Kennedy in the Mail stirred it with his click bait shite but it takes very little to stir things for a few.

I don’t even see ‘two sides’ here it has been one for number of years now who started off anti Bunker which seamlessly became anti Trust solely because of some of the people who helped set it up. It has all been quite ridiculous and embarrassing. Most other people are just Pools fans I certainly wouldn’t class myself as on any side I have never been directly involved in any group and I have even let my Trust membership lapse but if I see behaviour that is causing damage to the club going forward I will speak up about it.

Hopefully now the chairman has spoke out about it everyone can take a look at themselves and realise what those without agendas have all along and have tried to say, the most important thing is Hartlepool United. Everyone is different not everyone is going to get along but it’s surely not that hard to pull together for that? It needs to stop now for good.

Why? Why can't this be discussed? Even the chairman has had to make a statement to stop the stupid abuse towards the Trust. The CHAIRMAN!

We have fans who chant Fuck the Trust at away games, why? A volunteer lead organisation that is doing no harm to anybody.

THAT /\ is spot on.

Wasn't the original animosity because some people on here weren't keen on fancy dress and took the piss out of the secrecy element and the idea of unofficial penguins causing chew?

I can understand that somebody who put lots of time into the fancy dress might have been offended but it seems to have just rolled on ever since and it really shouldn't have ended up with the Trust and some of the people who championed it being vilified.

I'm so scared of causing trouble nowadays that I daren't even point out that St George, a Crusader whose cross is dearly beloved by Tommy Robinson worshipping arseholes, is a tactless choice in the middle of Brexit and a wave of Islamophobia!

Now that Raj has exonerated the Trust from any suggestion that it reneged on an undertaking to put cash into the club at the time of the takeover, it's pretty clear that everything that needed to be said on this particular episode has been (well) said.

Going on complaining about some people's irrational dislike of the Trust and parallel dislike of the Bunker is really just raking over coals that have been well raked over loads of times. Nothing said on here is going to change attitudes on the other board or on F*c*b**k.

Soon to be followed by:

The FIVE key questions facing the Poolie crusaders

1. Would it be OK to go as Lancelot instead, I've always liked Arthurian stuff?

2. Chainmail looks like it would irritate my skin, would a silvery coloured wool balaclava be OK?

3. Do Barrow provide proper stabling? It is a fair way over there and our steeds will need looking after properly.

4. Would my samurai sword count as an offensive weapon rather than fancy dress?

5. Did Saint George and the other crusaders like a pint? As an English patron saint he should have enjoyed a good drink before the match but he was actually Turkish so maybe a strong coffee and a smoke would have been more his thing.

Some great journalism here.

https://www.hartlepoolmail.co.uk/sport/ ... 809?page=2

"The Millers have twice been deducted 10 points for going into administration (2007, 2008). Once for a breach of breach of insolvency rules 17 points (2009). Once in 1995 for fielding an ineligible player in Farrend Rawson"

Farrend Rawson was born in 1996.. Was his Dad playing at the time? Do we have to register spunk as players?

My five questions for Kennedy

1 Who are you?

2. What’s your full time job?

3. Has your prize of being a ‘Sports Journalist for a Day ‘ expired yet?

4. Did you used to do the now defunct shipping movements in the Mail?

5. Sport or celebrity tittle tattle?

Just screams Brexit and the EDL to me as well based on all these recent marches etc as that's what half of them dress up in. But maybe I've just got no sense of humour (very possible)

It was only ever a bit of mild piss taking about all the cloke and dagger stuff about the theme it’s a lot more inclusive these days with the announcement on the official site though.

Its always a brilliant day to be fair that shows our club and support at its very best, hopefully one year soon we might go into one with something postive riding on the game.
