Get in! 4-0 win away at the disease ridden Spaniards.

Early days.

I told you all there was a footballer in Ali Dia!

Didn't know this until I looked him up this morning but he actually ended his career at Spennymoor

I always presumed he was a young kid when Souness gave him his chance but was 31 and played about 7 games with 1 being for Blyth

Pre google/wiki days i presume.

Joke where was my top scorer Albert Ross when you need him

Howay lads gotta bounce back!

So after 2 games the league is led by someone who isn't even from Hartlepool representing it's most famous landmark (now sadly demised). Not sure what any of this means but it feels very strange to be successful after following Pools for so many years. Anyway, its early day yet and reflects the humour of Poolies the best fans in the land. I expect to lose the next 10 games without scoring to make me really feel at home as an adopted Poolie. If i win (unlikely) I will get the pints in (virus permitting) at The Brus Arms followed by The Chesters and The Powlet.

Get in first win

I know how you feel. A win and a draw and I'm feeling strangely nervous and uncomfortably waiting for it all to go tits up.
Come on you Zeppelins.

Goalscorer for Dep La Corona - S. Distance

Judging by the league table paulus isn't as much a fan of corona virus as the rest of us.

Random my arse.

I noticed that too

Noted.

I knew pushing Danger Fourpence (or Danger 4p ) as he's been named in the scorers list would come good if I played him up front from his natural midfield role - where he is utterly shit.

How has the coronavirus affected our league? I think it would be an idea to suspend it untill further notice as I now have 39 players in self isolation and don't want to risk the other 243. Cheers!

Steetley away used to be one of the great away days, until they closed all the pubs down. What was the name of the away fans pub? was it The Touchdown?. Steetleys mob used the Brus as their pub, though King Oswy further up the road was a den of Steetley rarfs.

Nice to see Dia still scoring. I suppose he's like Aubameyang, scores loads but plays for teams who can't defend properly.

...I hope I don't become the next Arteta...

Interesting home game coming up with FC Greatham , both teams mid table and having identical records 3 games in.

Both teams top 6, remember there 24 teams not just the ones shown above

Sigh, Horden wrote about three great Hartlepool pubs rarfs and all. How things and times changed. Wasn't The Touchdown more rugby orientated it being near to West? Maybe someone from Hartlepool both of them can enlighten me. As for Horden i remember well your own pubs with fond memories except on one occasion. I refer to The North Eastern, The Coms and The Nimmos. Happy days Horden. Jolly, jolly days. keep well and safe all you bunkerites, rarfs, yakkers and whoever.

Understand it may be a bit long but could we see a full table Paulus? I'm pretty sure Dynamo Stockton will sink to mid table mediocrity very soon

I'll put a full table up after 5 games.

Yeah its a bloody shame. I loved Britain when it had lots of pubs , not from a piss head point of view , but historically and a sense of community, each pub catered for different types of customer and had its own history and stories to tell. Can live with a pub being demolished, but hate to see an old pub turned into a restaurant or convenience store, that does upset me, food is the new beer , though a helluva lot of booze is now drank at home.

Didn't think this league would make me angrier about Covid-19! I'm beginning self isolation at the bottom of the league.

Up up and away in my beautiful balloon.

Up to sixth the mistakes of the first game have been put to bed. Back stronger

So, the Zeppelin almost downed from the top of the league but has anybody else noticed the very incidious creeping up the league of AFC Crimdon? The dark horses? Is Paulus getting his condolence speeches ready now for any embarrassment he might feel come the end of the season (if it finishes), or maybe he will invite us all to a huge piss up in the soon to be resurrected and rebuilt Crimdon Pavillion with its increaced capacity so we can toast his success and our sorrows?

Arghh you've rumbled my game, ...no all down to random luck mate. I'll probably lose the next 10 now.

Random luck!!!! Zeppelin's winning streak wasn't built on random luck.
A manager with a keen football brain, Danger Fourpence up front and the best fans in the country.

Sure I saw an interview by that Jurgen klip- klopp gadgey the other day saying that his Liverpool team are 25 points clear at the top due mainly to random luck.

He has to rely on random luck as they don't have the best or second best fans in the country.

3 point from top get in

3 point from top get in

Is table position determined by goal difference or goals scored if points are equal in this league.

Not that I am over thinking it or anything.. Come on the Zeppelins.

Goal difference.
