Always had a soft spot for them and genuinely think they were unlucky.
Pretty sure the ball was over the line, there was a handball just before Bates hit the cross bar, with that deflected shot - that was given as a goal kick.
The Blyth keeper made that cracking save early on and Hartlepool dominated the first half.
Blyth had two shots and scored.
It is the first time I have seen Pools this season, having not been down since last season.
The problems started last season, when Cooper was bringing in all those loan players from Middlesbrough, whilst getting rid of the experienced players.
It was never going to work.
Murray has had to rebuild the team and I wasn't disappointed with any of his signings.
