The Poolie Bunker

Whoa, pick that one out of the net

3-0 pools im dreaming . Team transfirmed

3-0 Hugill rocket.

Unbelievable. If he is injured that means the list is pretty lengthy: Benn, John, Miley, Kougon, McKeowm, Chelsea goalie and that midfielder who has never played. That eight counting Earing. Talk about an injury curse....

I think Pete Wild really is a fully paid up member of the Magic Circle. UTP

Pools well drilled , well organised

3-1

Pools good value for the win but not sure we’re 3-0 better. The difference has been that Pools (whisper it) have taken their chances and defended well.

As I type this they’ve got one back 3-1

Come on Pools, dont throw this away.

3-2

All forestvgreen now

Oh bollox. I think we all know whats going to happen next.

Get in you beauty

Unbelievable. 2 goals from Sheron - what a screamer that was!!

4-2 sherin 35 yard screamer . Unbeluevable goal

After that dodgy penalty Pools absorbed huge pressure very well and now hit FGR with a sucker punch 4th. All in all an excellent performance all round.

Well I never saw that coming. Delighted to be bamboozled.

Definitely didn’t see this coming. We got a bit of fortune with our 2nd and 3rd goals, keeper should’ve dealt with 2nd and 3rd looked like it took a pretty big deflection, but no doubts about Sheron’s 30 yard rocket. He’s (deservedly) gotten stick from me but I’ll take my hat off to him, what a goal son.

I’m really pleased after watching that. Would’ve been easy for us to fold after Forest Green pulled it back to 3-2, but we tightened things back up at the back and saw it through. Our best performance of the season by a mile. Not vintage like the 4 goals would suggest, but we needed a bit of luck to get out of this rut we’ve been in. Up the effin Pools baby!!

To quote their commentators:
Well drilled, well organised, defensively solid and full of confidence.
Just shows what you get when you have a manager who knows what he’s doing.

Out of the bottom 4 as well.

Over the moon, me like. As I said above, Pete Wild really has worked magic. Winning at a place like FGR after our frankly disasterous form is incredible. Just shows that our players just needed some clear guidance from a gaffer who knows what he is doing. I know, its only one win so lets not lose perspective but by heck it was a good one.

If that’s the foundation then there is more to come. Not a bad start by Wild and performing like that the play offs are not unattainable. Theres still a lot of this season left.

8 goals in 12 games then score 4 away from home. No wonder bookies make money!

Forest Green quality side, fast as fuck, ball on the floor. Cant understand why they are down there. Our finishing for once top quality . Bit like a cup game. Still alot of work to do but god those goals are fantastic, mom Sheron yes Sheron

Cant wait for Wilde post match . Very entertaining game

We are staying up, say we are staying up

Hard to argue with a 6 goal thriller. Pete Wild's starting 11 did great. The substitutions and switch to 4-5-1 when we were 3-0 up didn't really work, but Pools saw the win out in the end.

I was really impressed with Deeming tonight, and what about Sheron - especially considering he was booked in the 2nd minute!

Great result, 33% increase in our points tally. Possible tally for the season is 111. The only downside was the effect Nolan had on the game...zero.

Yawn…..I had this dream….. :….shit, I’m awake

Even when they pulled two back and the three points were under threat I was consoling myself that if we play like that for the majority of the rest of the season we should be okay.

One swallow doesn’t make a summer but I think we all, as fans, were due a bit of relief from the torrid pap we’ve had to endure for the last few weeks.

Sheron man of the match although Hughill was also excellent and a massive loss when he went off. Well done Pete Wild on having the balls to drop our 2 big summer signings as we were much better without them and significantly weaker when they came on.

Great win 4 goals away from home shows we have the capability to climb up the league just need to stop the silly mistakes in defence

Notice Forest Green say they are not appointing a manager and four coaches will be in charge…that worked out well….sounds like what we’ve just thrown overboard.

Master class from Pete Wild 1.44 am here im knackered but happy . Looking forward to Sherons 35 yarder again when i wake up

Great win played as a team.

How ever for me the one weak link today was popov far to weak offers nothing

Sitting back at 3-0 and handing the initiative over to the Veggies didn't help.

Sherons goal hope the link works

Excellent well overdue victory.

Wilds 11 we’re not what I thought it would be, but the combination worked, he’s obviously an astute surveyor of which combination works for him and in this instance demonstrated it.
So what the feck was going on before his arrival…?

Maybe our players didn't understand the jawdee lingo.

Way aye marra!

What an improvement, and what potential when we get the injured players back.
We rode our luck a bit at times, but how many times has it gone against us? Thought the most obvious penalty wasnt given whereas not sure about the 2 that were, certainly it looked to me as if Popov made an excellent tackle and clearly won the ball.
One swallow doesn't mean much though, hopefully we can go on a run now.

Exactly what Pete Wild said in his post match interview, it will be interesting to see what first team players will be in the U21 team against Newcastle U21, will it be a few minutes before substituting them ?

i can. they need to forget they were an efl side and get nasty and more shithouse. something like we have been at times also. PW said if we tried to match em at what they do we,d lose. others know that as well.

and the improvement has only been in one week. what will one and then another month be like as long as the players do not break down in his fitness schedule. a few weeks back we,d have lost that game easily as we would not have taken those shots on for a start and in the box we,d be doing a chuckle brothers from me to you exercise because everyone was frightened to have a go. big thing now is beating marine next saturday and entering the draw in 8 days tome.

thin k it was a lot to do with the non tactical substitutions that were made before there comeback. if the same team that gave us that lead had stayed on for another 15 to 20 minutes we might have scored another. we just looked a bit disjointed for 15 minutes or so when the subs were made.
