Really didn't want to lose either as they are both northern clubs ha ha.
Would rather have got rid of Borehamwood or Barnet.

Harrogate could have been 5 up at half time and hit the post again in the second half as well as scoring. Delighted to see the back of their plastic pitch, but well played!

Well done Harrogate Town but personally would have felt better if The Magpies (proper ones) had got back to League Two. Now we have them in our league for another season at least. Not good news.

We also have the added joys of going to Altrincham and Weymouth, mind you Weymouth has plenty of pubs, for now!

cannot say well done as they follow crawley, forest green and salford as just another bankrolled club without a real fanbase. think there will be plenty of harrogate residents unhappy this morning with sales of window barricades being bought in the hundreds. bettys will have to employ bouncers next season for away fans. hope they draw hull city in the league cup at home to give hull fans a good away day.

The more northern clubs succeed in this Southern biased money laden sport the better as far as I'm concerned, if you'd said to a York City fan 5 years ago that Harrogate Town will be 2 leagues above you they'd have laughed in your face. Just shows what money can achieve.

Pisses me off when I hear supporters implying these clubs have bought success. The money undoubtedly gets you over the line , but the main reason is they are well ran , have a structure , skilled people in the boardroom , dedicated and experienced backroom staff and recruitment of the right players. That is why Harrogate are in league 2 and Pools face a National League relegation fight nothing to do with lack of money.

I half agree with this yes the club has to be well run etc but without money they could not recruit good players. There is no way Harrogate could afford the wages of their players on average gates of 1300 so obviously the owner is putting in a lot of money. Remember Rushden & Diamonds I hope this does not happen to Harrogate.

know where you are coming from but still do not like it. think all ex league clubs have something in common with pools in the running of their clubs. york, chesterfield and until recently stockport come to mind. the one thing they could learn from these traditional non league clubs is how actually to run a club from the bottom upwards. if they did with their much higher gates then it could counteract the bankrolled affect some of these clubs have.

And of course are able to ground share with near neighbours( lol ) Doncaster.

Might as well leave the plastic down, they,ll be able to use it again in the 21/22 season.

So who are all these players they've spent lots of money on?
I can think of only Stead.
One of thier best players was on loan & the other one releases by Darlo.

you do not need to pay big transfer fees on players. just offer em good contracts they would not get anywhere else.

Wrong. Mark Beck cost them a fee. Josh Falkingham was out of contract and rejected a new deal in favour of moving to Harrogate.

Very few teams at this level pay big transfer fees it’s generally about wages. I have heard that Pools only pay around £800 a week. I obviously don’t know if this is right But in today’s market you won’t get much for that.

I bet if we could find out, which of course we probably can't , Harrogate would've spent no less money than us, only they used theirs wisely and we wasted ours. HUFC , through being badly run, leaks money. If it was better run, that money could be spent on better players and ground improvements etc.

Amazing how these teams with 500-1500 fans seem to have more directors, backroom staff and as many players as a team with 3000 supporters , yet still manage to get to the play offs, Wembley, even league 2, no excuses, HUFC are an embarrassment

I wouldn't bet on it , more likely to do a FGR , and in 2 or 3 seasons be in the league 2 play offs

just had a look at a harrogate programme from a couple of years ago and they do not seem to be too different from pools in their backroom staff apart from a few more directors. the main difference with pools and a lot in our league is having a CEO. why do pools need one when others even of the same size club manage without this post.

Bottom line is , Pools are just shit , at just about everything they do. That's the conclusion I have come to.

For example Harrogate signed John Stead years ago. For years now everyone with an ounce of footballl sense would know you need that sort of player to get out of this league, yet even now we are not signing that type of player , instead signing players similar to the ones who have failed in the past, the bloke from Royston Town , Niko Muir mark 2.

Sorry, but that last comment is just nuts !
How can you diss a bloke before you've seen him play ? Could be the next Nathan Thomas. Just hope he hasn't cottoned on to the Bunker yet. We hear all the talk about nothing changing at the club, yet you could say the same about some of the doom mongers on here !

Mr. Horden is not any old doom monger, he's the Doom Monger-in- Chief. A few days ago he predicted that Pools will be in a relegation battle next season and now that a new player will be a failure before he's kicked a ball for the club. He's got in first with the prediction Pools will struggle and if they do we'll be hearing about it quite a bit!

As it happens, I agree that John Stead was a great signing for Harrogate and if by any chance he's deemed surplus to requirements in League Two he'd be worth a punt by Pools even at 37.

He still hasn’t replied to where the club is leaking money. I don’t know why he follows us all he does criticise and pull the club to bits.
If you want a John Stead you have to pay big money which we do not have. Remember Watson,Gabbadini,Barker exactly what we want but they only came for what was big money at our level.

john stead was lust lincolns version of matt rhead who was a big help to them being promoted. some fans and managers seem to have a down on this type of player saying stuff like it forces the team to nonly play one way. funny though with the right man in the side this one way seems to work in non league.

I could write a 25000 word essay on where the club leaks money , but I won't , because it wouldn't change your mind. You always find fault with everything I post , you are not alone , it doesn't really bother me , but I will not be wasting my time on long winded replies to you. I usually call it right with all things Pools, i don't have to justify myself to you. You are like a lot of people , pick holes in others posts but rarely have any answers yourself. Why don't you tell us why you think the club is not leaking money?.

Sure we still owe a lot of Dosh to the Blackledge fella.
Wasent it a % of future profit of promotions cup runs player sales etc.
Then when Sing leaves it will probably be more of the same.
Maybe that's some serious LEAKAGE.

But I can understand it when a few of our fans get pissed of when we can't seem to compete or challenge teams with shit fanbases. They don't all have rich chairman.

The covid factor could well work in our favour as these other poorly supported clubs will be struggling to make ends meet.

Like I said the otha week it shud be an evenly matched national League this season.
Is this our time? :shifty:

ever thought that these teams actually regard playing pools as one of their main games of the season. one of the few games where they play on a proper ground and when at home they actually have an away crowd to contend with and motivate them. beating the likes of pools and notts county will feel better than doing the same against dover and bromley. there is a far bigger motivation factor.

its about clubs raising their game when they play pools and the notts and stockport counties of this world. i think they do but others may disagree. pools will be regarded as a big fish in the non league piss pool just as bolton will be in division 2 next season. fans and players at the likes of barrow and morecambe will be getting excited now of the prospect of going and playing at the reebok or whatever its called next season.

I am still firmly of the opinion that we should have gone into administrator and told Sage to whistle.

As for the club’s funding; as far as I can see there is zero revenue coming from anywhere but ticket sales and prize money. The commercial input is zero.

What puzzles me is why rich potential owners of football clubs choose to fund clubs like Harrogate Town rather than the likes of HUFC with a decent fan base and football league history.

Perhaps the fact we don't own the ground so we virtually have no assets if it goes tits up. Not sure other clubs ground ownership but our position help keeps away assetstripping con men.........well almost.

think there are more clubs in a similar position as pools regarding ground ownership. the ground s are owned by other bodies away from the actual club. you can buy the club at the outset but not the ground. even in the premier league not all clubs there own their own ground.

Ironically one of the things that should give people some comfort about Raj Singh's motives is that we have no assets although I still believe that it was a big error to take on the old debts and I did say so in no uncertain terms at the initial meeting with Raj, Jeff S, Craig Hignett along with Mr Cowboy.

We would now be in a similar position but with a clean slate and the past few years would have been more fun with a true community owned club and by the way, no! I never had ambitions to be chairman or even on the board. Those positions should be held by capable people who live in the town and can contribute time to the project.

Mr I is correct about the commercial input of HUFC. There seems to be little effort to improve the cash flow. Here are a couple of suggestions .A monthly car boot sale on the car park. This is something that could be organised by volunteers. Match day lottery tickets could be sold in between games ,from the club shop, the Corner Flag and probably from retail outlets in the town. Again this could be run by volunteers. I am sure that other people will have some good ideas that the club could use.
Could I also remind readers that the Corner Flag is open every Friday night from 7pm. In these difficult times the C.F. should be the focal point for supporters. Why not pop in ,renew your subs or join, and have a drink and a chat . See you on Friday.

might cost too much to set up as i do not know. how about a National Leagues Scrath Card. sold in as many local shops as you can get in each of the clubs towns. the money is distributed as a percentage of tickets sold in each town.
