Hartlepool United


Went to pre season game down there when we played Hartlepool this season and some of their fans really pissed me off. Few(lot) of them singing mag songs and displaying mag flags.

Not going to tar everyone with same brush though cos I’ve come across loads of lads from Hartlepool on trains who support us.

Feel bad for the genuine Pool fans, you’ll be back though. Keep the faith.
 
Some absolute characters in the town end like. Felt like every mentalist in town rocked up.
Anger was starting towards the owner, final home game things could get nasty.

Players pissed me off, just went through the motions against very mediocre opposition. Like us I heard their worst games are kept for the biggest gates!

Was funny seeing the police escort of about 60 crawley from the station. One shouted something n a copper threw him against a car!

Mate was telling me how much non league hit the takings at the club, raglan, various other bars, restaurants n hotels. Massive shame then you see such a mickey mouse outfit/away following it adds insult to injury.
Funds/takeover needed asap.

We stand in front of the line (mill house side) so fair to say we hear some very colourful language towards the linesman & even at times the opposition physio when they walk round. Even on a normal attendance, you hear the usual nutters going mad, yesterday though was off the scale. Cleveland Police are what they are, an embarrassment. Raj got up and left with about 15 minutes to go yesterday when an anti Raj chant started, I very much doubt be will attend next week. Only the keeper & Sylla looked interested yesterday, identical to Tuesday night down at Salford. The club are an absolute mess under this regime, they can't even do the basics right off the field either

Sylla the no 20? Yeh he was cracking. I was right behind their enormous keeper but a mate was stood behind the mill house linesman n said a bloke just berated him 90 minutes 😆 saying he ran like an invalid etc. you just hear way more than at the sol like, awful place to run the line id imagine! Or play. Saw their lb arguing with the terrace at one point.

Felt the team got a better applause than the display they gave but maybe the support know their limitations. What an abysmal second to concede.

Whats the connection with Pallister turning up?
 
Very strong National league next Season with another 2 proper league clubs coming down.

Great player Sylla, loved him at Aldershot 👍, can't see him staying for next season.

Pallister is a mate of the owner, I think he must do some sort of unofficial work for the club in some capacity, he's been about a while and was also at Salford on Tuesday, they were posing for photos with Bryan Robson which the official club media shared on social media and had to delete several hours later as they got the dogs abuse :lol::lol:

Pools is one of the worst places for an official, basically no hiding place, they hear everything especially those running the line, the amount of abuse is unreal, been like for that decades, this season about as bad as I've known

I couldn't understand the applause at full time but I guess folk pay their money. I know @toosb was at the game in the mill house terrace and he said he had to calm someone down before they got themselves into trouble :lol::lol:

I remember last season, a few Boro players coming through went on loan, some trainers went as manager and coaches, a lot of the Hartlepool fans weren’t too happy and let it be known, so did not have any connection with them this season.
Hope they can bounce back, but the National League is very competitive, I think this time it might take them a while.

Just some really funny old blokes 😂
I missed first goal, being safc i said yous watch game n ill get in beer queue. Mate comes at ht n takes place from me n this fella shouts. “Oy mate you cant just let your oppos in like that”!

Oppos ffs dont think ive ever heard that used outside the workplace, or werkplace! 😉

With Wrexham and Notts County (probably) out of the way it looks like a more open division next season. I saw Barnet the other week and for a team in the play offs they were shocking.

Nothing to fear in that league.
 
Stelling says Singh is determined to prove to the North East footballing world that he is fit to run a club, despite perceived failings at rivals Darlington.

“He is happy his name is out in the public domain,” said president Stelling. “I just hope it is a positive reaction.

“One of the things that drove him away from that club was that the fans were negative, understandably so, although they did not know the whole story.

“That negativity disillusioned him. We weren’t too sure what the response would be but all I would say is that even thought I’d never met him until a few months ago, his intentions are to right a perceived wrong from Darlington.

“He wants to show that he can be the right type of person to run a football club and he has chosen that club to be Hartlepool.”

:lol::lol::lol:

Want them to do well generally and I feel for all Poolies but Stelling and that horrible rotten fucker in charge are getting everything they deserve. Hope Challinor’s laughing his cock off at them on the final day if Stockport beat them to seal promotion.

Insane that Raj Singh is allowed anywhere near a football club.
 
Aye you have to feel they'll never do nowt with this owner.

They hit on well with Challinor to get them out of the National League but now they've got it all to do again.

Massive shame, even bigger missed opportunity.
 
Isn’t there a possibility of it being 3 up, 3 down between League 2 and National League next season. I hope so, that’ll be a little bit less daunting for them.
