I know its stating the obvious, and is pending their forthcoming and richly deserved -10, but nevertheless - only if 'poole can either win or string some draws together. Come on you poolies!

Destiny calls, surely it can't be delayed much longer

LLLLLLDDDLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL Sounds more and more like like a final despairing plea for their favouite budget-brand LIDL to be built there

Poor b@stard will look like Rip van Winkle before they win again

The whole thing reminds me of a nine-year-old whistling in the dark to keep his spirits up as he walks through a graveyard at midnight

Good metaphor, which can be extended beautifully to cover practically every aspect of their predicament. Perhaps contributers to this thread could help them by having a whip-round for a new shovel? You'd think their old one must be worn out by now

then it was then it changed to then to now it's It's only Jan now, 5 months since August. How far have they fallen in just 5 months? WTFILN! Get the popcorn out. Their current thrashing and heaving and general panic are just symptoms of the beginning of their terminal dive

Although: 20 Doncaster 1997/98 Division 3

Happy days.

Yes, but this is the bestest LLLLLLDDDLLLLL in the whole wide world

Yes, such a shame they couldn't hang on to Unappy. God bless Hartlepool

I'm opening another beer to celebrate this

Carlsberg don't do League 1 results. But if they did...

'does anyone feel sorry for them at all..' Hell no, karma is a ***** and I'm loving every single side-splitting moment of it

Jumpers for goalposts

I foresee more comedy gold no matter what the outcome of their wriggling on HMRC's orginal hook. As long-running sitcoms go, it just doesn't get any better than this

The few's response in having to eat more lashings of humble pie when they accept the demononic, much-reviled Chanrai as their saviour should be worth seeing

Please God.

The key thing for me is their airbrushing out of all this new debt. FFS they are where they are because for years they thought nothing of running up hideous amount of indebtedness (because they have a God-given 'right to be competitive'); when they did think about servicing some of their debt it was always to people who could be trusted to 'send the boys round' if they weren't paid - but HMRC, small businesses, charities etc. i.e. anyone they could bully - could whistle for it. And here we go again

Two words: morbid curiosity. That explained, I strongly suspect, a large fraction of their Twitteratti. However, this never-ending train wreck on the Island of Dr Morreau continues to reward connoisseurs with rich and seemingly inexhaustible seams of comedy gold: I for one can hardly wait for the next side-splitting instalment

This reminds me of an alleged comment made regarding an ineffective junior Army officer: "His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of morbid curiosity."

Can't claim it as mine, sadly - just quoting from C.S. Lewis in The Screwtape Letters
