A relegation spot awaits Pools if the game goes as form suggests!

However if Pools can get something from this game, all will be forgiven.

Got a feeling in my waters that we’re gonna win today.

Players may feel the pressure is off today a bit as everyone will expect us to get beat.

Or conversely they may be flapping that it may be a trouncing they’re on the end of and play for damage limitation.

Easier platting fog than trying to guess what we’re going to get out of them currently.

Nailed on home win but we have enough in defence to make life difficult for Boreham unless someone drops a bollock which , lets face it, is not unknown. My guess is 2-0.

That is about as strong a side and bench that we can probably turn out at present therefore being slightly positive, Boredom 3, Pools 0.

Nah…if we get walloped, being the natural outlook of Poolies, we’ll just move onto the next game and that will become the prospective turning point game for us.

Merrick didn’t even dive, useless

I was hoping we might hold out for longer than 20 minutes. Can anyone hear creaking and dripping from the floodgates?

I thought them stop/pause penaltys got banned.
Sure it happened last season.

It’s like playing Real Madrid . Everyone of them comfortable on the ball . Possession stats are 92% them, 8% us. We can’t pass more than 2 or 3 passes at a time .

Only a matter of time, I guess......

It looks like at least two divisions between the two teams. They are a world above us. This will end up as a hammering.

Mr Irrelevant · **Joined:** Thu Aug 17, 2006 8:25 pm **Posts:** 22993

2-0 and they’ll keep on coming.

Schoolboy defending. I used to think we had a good team but a poor manager. It’s becoming clear that we simply have no quality.

harrogatepoolie · **Joined:** Sat Dec 28, 2019 12:35 pm **Posts:** 1612

2-0 it’s just a joke. The gulf in quality is massive . I mean massive

Have Chelsea stipulated that Merrick isn't allowed to dive as part of his rehabilitation?

Smith might be a hologram but at least he looks like he's bloody trying.

Mr Irrelevant · **Joined:** Thu Aug 17, 2006 8:25 pm **Posts:** 22993

To be fair, BW will run away with League Two when they get there. They look like a L1 team and Pools look like a struggling Wearside League team.

harrogatepoolie · **Joined:** Sat Dec 28, 2019 12:35 pm **Posts:** 1612

I’ve said for ages we at least northern league if not worse . Boreham wood are playing at least championship level

Ozzy Saltburn · **Joined:** Mon Nov 01, 2021 11:34 pm **Posts:** 4722

As I said earlier, I was hoping we would make it difficult for them but I guess they are too good for the likes of us.

He’s a shadow of his former self. Can kick can’t dive . Was routed to the spot like a scarecrow . My gut before the match was 8-0 to them. It could still happen . Even the commentator is waffling he is so bored

Wonder what Wildy positives are for yet anutha defeat.

frankie1951 · **Joined:** Mon Sep 08, 2025 6:13 am **Posts:** 121

Totally embarrassing, can't even get a kick. Two years ago this team was in NLS, how quickly things can change eh? White and Booty bossing the midfield, mind that's not difficult with our "midfield". Just a matter of how many more they'll score in the second half. They have too many players for us who can actually control, pass and move the ball. It all looks foreign to our lot, happy days NOT.

We are such an embarrassment, these players representing the club are a bunch of frauds. You just know if there's an ex player in the opposition team he's nailed on to score even if they average 2 goals a season.

harrogatepoolie · **Joined:** Sat Dec 28, 2019 12:35 pm **Posts:** 1612

Boreham Wood can put together 20 passes . Pools can muster 2 or 3 at most . Ok to beat the mighty Seaton Carew but …..

Stocksfield_Poolie · **Posted:** Sat Oct 31, 2026 5:05 pm

I was not brave enough to back the home team at 1/3.
So went for the draw as a token bet!

Stocksfield_Poolie · **Posted:** Sat Oct 31, 2026 5:06 pm

No need to worry, so long as we beat the teams around us and stay up, that will be the aim.
Landon made a right mess of handing over control to those buffoons!
Cost us a season where we should have been challenging for a play off spot.

Wow! 3-2 Pools.

We're a different team with the midfield pushing on closer to Harris.
I hope we don't try to hold on, keep closing them down has to be the best form of defence.

Mr Irrelevant · **Joined:** Thu Aug 17, 2006 8:25 pm **Posts:** 22993

I said all along that we were the better team.

What has Wildy put in the halftime drinks? Keep going Pools!

Is there a recording of the half time bollocking?

Ozzy Saltburn · **Joined:** Mon Nov 01, 2021 11:34 pm **Posts:** 4722

Charman on, injured and then off, replaced by Popov. There is still time for us to fook up.

Can we hold on for a point? Wouldnt it be a gutting if we lost after the biigest reversal we have done for some time.

Six minutes added time. buggeration

You just new it 4-3 to them ffs

As expected

4-3 now. Should have expected it.

Only Pools can do this shit again again and again.

But don't forget the positives

JezThePoolie · **Joined:** Sat Dec 06, 2025 9:28 pm **Posts:** 122

Well I was expecting us to lose but not in that manner. 4 goals conceded, sure, but didn’t expect 3 goals scored.

Why does he keep persisting with Hugill? The bloke is absolutely rubbish and looks knackered 30 seconds after coming on. He’s supposed to be a big lump I guess who can hold the ball but is nowhere near the pace of play. Real shame, should’ve kept Harris on.

Disappointed at the manner of the defeat, not the defeat itself.

harrogatepoolie · **Joined:** Sat Dec 28, 2019 12:35 pm **Posts:** 1612

3-2 up all of that work and sat back again . If you have a faulty ticker don’t support pools . And finally to make it worse Charman injured again . If we survive this league Wilde needs to be knighted
