We were close to being the only ever team to score af half time!

Not a lot in the game but Hartlepool ending stronger, Nolan looks good for them. Poor goal to concede we switched off from a quick free kick down the right, didn’t clear it or mark tight enough and will Harris of course puts it in the top corner.
Innes Cameron one on one onside misses completely and he never looked like scoring did he. We need better than him sorry not good enough. Why’s Reid not starting? Plenty of space though Hartlepool look vulnerable and we’re still in it. Don’t fancy our defence so much though they look good going forward. Referee bizarre to be expected.

Did he really bring them back out for a minute.

What a surprise

If we're still one down with 20 mins left I expect the cavalry to be thrown on.

Yep and rightly so

Criticising bad defending and someone missing a sitter is not going into a meltdown ffs get a grip!

I missed it. I thought he’d blown early…. but I nipped out as soon as it went.

Think showing we still need that forward.
Harris who scored for them looks good.
Hartlepool must have spent some money.

New owners new investment and Murray last night on Radio Cumbria said we were in for a couple they signed but they blew us out of the water wages wise

Thanks

That was a foul on Harris there. We got away with that one

Is anybody else surprised at the amount of fouling going on (both sides) that the ref is not blowing for.

Physical in your face side? Same spineless lot as a
last year. Only difference is they can pitch a tent up hawkshead

Think Winterbottom should have saved that !
