Re: Hartlepool match thread (H)

Don't know whether to laugh or cry?
Laugh, because we scored two goals and cry because we conspired to throw away our lead twice and two precious points.
Their first equaliser was a pinpoint cross onto the head of their forward, no more than one yard from our goal line, while Chapman stood frozen to the spot.
He could and should have either gathered or punched the ball before it landed but his indecision cost us a goal.
Their second was another shambles by the defence, with Chapman again floundering on the deck.
Hartlepool were only average but respect to them for coming back twice to earn a draw.
This season has proved there are no poor teams in league two and we are no better than any of them.
The only good thing you can say about today is that we didn't lose.
