Hartlepool United to go into administration and an instant 10-point deduction or automatic relegation if their takeover is not completed in the next couple of days.

Always sad when this happens to clubs with a long history mixed with bad management at all levels mixed with relegation.

Another club destroyed part in hand by that peanut headed cunt Steve Murrall.

Hope he’s enjoying his time in the clink

We got off lightly in the great scheme of things.

That is a shame, although they rode their luck getting re-elected down the years.

I followed their results as a kid, because they were so shit and I like an underdog. Then I found another similar team played just down the road from me...

I liked them when Clough was in charge... like you because of the underdog thing, they always seemed to be up for re-election.

Now though, Town fans can't afford sentiment, it could easily be us next.

Certainly think things could have gone a lot worse a lot quicker for us if Jed, Murrall et al had longer.

And yet there are many Town fans who would happily risk that again

£7m agent's fee on a £15m transfer. Not bad work if you can get it.

Indeed though if you have saved the buying club £20m on said deal, everyone wins - unless Everton have been forced to accept £20m less through nefarious means?

I would be intrigued how they were forced to sell an asset at a reduced price? Barkley could have threatened to down tools (not that Everton would have noticed in recent years) but that's really no different to any worker withholding their labour and I thought an old red like you would appreciate that!  Cheesy Wink
