Just to add a touch of realism for the likes of Dave...we wont be signing anyone from HPool. Think back to the summer when the ManUre lad Jones preferred them over us as they pay more. As far as we know that policy hasn't changed, maybe someone on loan.
Nothing to do with the fact Hartlepool is alot closer to Manchester, where he lived...
Perhaps his agent made him go there so he (the agent) could get more money
Maybe Wilson sold the club better than Malpas did.
