11 points from 27 at home is simply unacceptable. It’s a farce. Hartlepool should be one of the most difficult places for any visiting team in this division. The club’s supporters are passionate, the fanbase is loyal, and the club has the resources to compete. Yet here we are, with a team that can’t even manage to win one-third of its home games. This isn’t just a bad season; it’s a failure of monumental proportions. How can any fan continue to accept this mediocrity? Fans who are still clinging to the hope that things will improve are living in a state of delusion. This is not a team that's going to "come good" under the current leadership — it's a team spiraling towards disaster.
And that brings me to the heart of the issue: Raj Singh. The buck stops with him. The truth is, he’s become a club killer. Since his arrival, the club’s fortunes have taken a nosedive. There’s no vision, no structure, and no leadership. Singh has allowed a culture of underperformance to fester, and his decisions, or lack thereof, have left the team in a constant state of stagnation. Fans shouldn’t be cheering for mid-table finishes or hoping for a lucky break; they should expect, demand, and deserve far better. Under Singh, the club has shown no real ambition, no clear plan for progression, and no desire to compete at a higher level. It’s clear that his focus is somewhere other than Hartlepool, and the club is paying the price.
The harsh reality is that, unless something drastic happens, Hartlepool United is going nowhere with Singh in charge. We can point to bad refereeing decisions or injuries, but ultimately, this is a squad capable of so much more — if only they had the right leadership. Every season, it feels like we're just going through the motions, watching a slow decline that could be avoided with proper management and vision.
The only way forward is for Raj Singh to leave. His tenure has been a disaster, and the club is in desperate need of fresh leadership. Enough is enough. It’s time for a change at the top. If Hartlepool United are serious about returning to the Football League and competing at a higher level, then the first step must be to remove Singh from the equation. Anything less is a betrayal of the fans and the club’s rich history.
Hartlepool United’s supporters deserve better. The club deserves better. And with the right leadership, we could start to turn things around — but that begins with saying goodbye to Raj Singh. The longer he stays, the deeper we sink into mediocrity. It’s time for change. It’s time for Raj Singh out.
Great, you must have a buyer lined up.
