I hope we're not getting ourselves in a frenzy over Hartlepool's next manager...

Like the sound of this guy. To be fair, Evatt said similar things when he left us for Bolton.

That thought briefly crossed my mind but checking the Pools forum there is no hint of similar rumours though to be fair that doesn't mean anything.

Barrow is the club mentioned in this article with the announcement being made tomorrow.

I wasn't being totally serious but the Hartlepool Mail also quotes Wild being joint favourite for their job.

Barrow twitter on the tease again at 10:00am. There is clearly an announcement coming very soon i.e. later this morning. Must be Wild unless we've all been sold a dummy.

I mentioned to the lady on the front desk yesterday that I had hoped to bump in David Unsworth whilst there and she said he had just left. I'm sure she was joking but what if it was a double bluff??

Got to wait for the guy to drive through here for the obligatory photo in the stand of

Brown
Cooper
Kelly
Jolley
Dunn

Sorry Wild

let's hope that's it for a few years

Can't see it. Too much of a coincidence that Wild has formally left Halifax after the play-offs and within 2 days we're making an announcement. If it was Unsworth, why wait until this moment - makes no sense.

Poor Des 2-2; weekend ruined and he hasn’t even had his lunch yet

Liked his learn to walk before we run philosophy. Great news that he knows and has a good working relationship with our new Sporting Director Iain Wood.
Looks like he will be bringing in his own back room team so a bit on continuity there for him.
Sounded confident without being brash, all bodes well. Fingers crossed we have brought in someone that will progress things on and off the pitch over a sustained period of time. And he knows how to serve a decent pint and change a barrel
Best of luck Pete
