Official West Hartlepool RFC

Smells as if our under training didn't help and sounds a disaterous day well forgotten starting from before kickoff. Having said that 40 mins with 14 men (maybe some with 13) and the injuries we suffered also, at this level would have been too much for any team in the league to handle against playoff hopefuls!!! Reckon we did real well to come to 19 - 12 at one stage.
Let's put in a good week of training and hopefully have more availability and return from injuries for a revenge date with Chester!!!

If this post gets hijacked by people going on about the fourth/Am team it will be the last straw I'm afraid.

Very disappointing result for the firsts and the other teams. Is complacency setting in so we are not preparing as we should?
Someone has said this is down to the Foremans not playing. By the sound of it we were second best in the set pieces and no half back can influence a game without the ball. In any case Painter and Moss are good players and it sounds as though they did as well as they could.
Now pitch as we do not want to slip into the relegation area.
