Love how the reporters refer to the job at Pools, but basically it never gets the time to be quite warm enough to even be the ‘Lukewarm Seat’.

I’d imagine the calendar in the managers ‘waiting room’ only ever has 3 months on it.

According to the towns ‘local paper’ ,
The Hartlepool Mail understands that Nicky Featherstone, Peter Hartley and Elliot Dickman are leading the race to become the next permanent Hartlepool United manager.
