Good afternoon everyone. This page will no longer be posting exclusively about Hartlepool United, the page has changed hands and will now bring you general football transfer stories and rumours from around the National League. A re-brand will commence these next few days.

Understand York will be covering the players wages, which will take a sizeable chuck out of the Joe Grey compensation. Either way it’s a strong addition to Pools.

If this a swap deal with York to avoid compo on Joe grey they’ll be riots on Park Road

HUFC are working on new targets beyond the current trialists and are hoping to speed things up this week or next. We could see two or three new players come in. I thought we might have made a move for former Barrow and Carlisle goalkeeper Paul Farman.

More money on offer

Morning Pools fans 👋 New trialist involved this week, would you off the striker who scored vs FC and Whitby a deal? Sounds like Pools are nearing that.

What did everything think of Pools yesterday?

Magpie Fish and Chips before watching Hartlepool hopefully put their best foot forward against Whitby. Interested to see how the trialists go.

I’d never rule it out, but it’s looking difficult.

Nothing.

Hartlepool still pushing ahead with trying to make signings quickly. Trials may have changed view on some players and pushed some deals back. DJ likely to be involved tomorrow at Whitby.

I understand that HUFC have spoken to Richie Smallwood. A deal is being worked on and could happen in the next few weeks. It’s not close yet, but the seeds have been planted.

Have deleted my post about this, at the heart of this issue is a young man who is going to need time and patience. I crossed the line with the previous criticism of that post. I’ll apologise for that. JM.
