I was shocked to see that both Ormerod and Rasiak scored in the same game on Saturday

Dont you think 25 mins is a longtime to play ugly when the team is not really used to it

There is nothing to disagree with it is just a statement ML can do what ever he wants with the club as he owns it. Whether that is good or bad only time will tell

You made it very well FF but not sure many cared

I agree in January but not now

Perhaps their striker wont play which is good news http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/h/hartlepool_united/8374392.stm

They are not dross they are professional footballers who have a contract with the club Holmes and Saga are good players but are never played Dont get me wrong we will need better players in the future but the squad is OK for League 1 at the moment surely

Surely he has enough players now or is he saying the ones he brought in are not good enough.

Why would we want to sign anybody?

Quite right . It was a very good game against one of the better teams in the League and we drew. How people expect players to be perfect every game mystifies me

Probably not mathematically but Statistically our chance of Promotion is extremely small.

I was disappointed that we started so badly but we have done OK since. I wiil however be disappointed if we dont beat a few of the top teams this season so far I think we may have only beaten one top ten team in the league this season - MK Dons

Perhaps that is promotion form but there are a lot of clubs with similar form way up the table from us and it will be virtually impossible to reach them

For once I agree with your post

Yes our squad does not have much depth really

As I never took much notice of Nick G's simplistic approach to Statistics I am not unhappy drawng with Norwich. Another Draw against Hartlepool and wins against Wycombe and Tranmere hopefully will lead us out of the relegation zone

The referee in the England v NZ Rugby Match was really good today

Last season was awful this season is OK we are scoring goals and winning games if we had not lost 10 points for going into administration things would look a great deal better. Pardew appears to be doing a good but not outstanding job

So automatic Promotion is really unlikely then

Very true but not a surprise really is it

Considering we were 10 points from the play offs at the start of the season and are now 16 perhaps he has a point The season is approaching half way and we are still in the relegation zone

Probably true but I am not unhappy where we are and how we are playing

The facts seem to suggest that we are a middle of the table side at the moment

We have only beaten one of the top ten in League 1 this season I think So Play Offs very unlikely 1 Leeds United 16 24 39 2 Charlton 17 13 33 3 Huddersfield 17 20 30 4 Colchester 17 13 30 5 Norwich 17 10 29 6 MK Dons 17 0 29 7 Bristol Rovers 17 -1 28 8 Millwall 17 8 25 9 Swindon 16 0 25 10 Walsall 17 1 24

How many goals has he scored since his arrival?
