Early days in the season but a little concerning we are playing wing backs but with full backs who do not look comfortable going forward and crossing the ball. Results in midfield being light and forwards dropping too deep. Very poor start.

Difficult to be critical of a team unbeaten in 5 with 4 wins, but couldn’t understand why Bates didn’t make any substitutions upfront especially after he himself said players looked tired. Felt like 2 points dropped

Abject from Pools, completely outplayed and outfought by Telford & Harrogate. Tough games to come, without doubt we will be fighting relegation again. Totally embarrassing!!!

I hope Coxhall, Hignett and Jones are happy that their incompetence has led to an afternoon of heartbreak for a town and amazing fans

@trevorcarson24 Hope you're staying, with you between the sticks we'll bounce straight back!

Really struggle to understand Fans negativity around Pools, new manager and New squad that is improving all the time

If Harrison had Toto, Almond, Thomas, Alessandra, Carson at his disposal he would have done a significantly better job than Hignett & Jones

Really wanted it to work for Harrison but 3-0 at Ebbs and 4-0 Dover suggests something seriously wrong. Humps & Tinkler to bring a bit of pride back!

Nothing more predictable than Pools and England Cricket ruining my weekend, again!

Harrison needs at least 8 points out of next 4 games or he should walk. Think he’s a good guy and wanted it to work but last 4 games truly woeful

Apparently Craig reluctant to let Scott Harrison go as he doesn’t want to be left short. How many Centre Halves do you need; Ledger, Laing, Watson & Donnelly plus Magnay can play there and youth players - all better than Scott Harrison!

Pools Head of Recruitment should hang his head in shame; Laing, Munns, Newton, Adams, Donaldson, Cassidy, huge waste on wages, including his own. Today was woeful, before you consider the occasion

Desperate statement from Pools, essentially asking people to chip in and buy the club, regardless of whether they know each other or not!

Harrison is rightly getting criticism for performances on the pitch but I think it’s unfair to ridicule his interviews. In uncertain times he’s constantly faced the press with no support from the club. Clearly no Shakespeare but least he doesn’t shy away

Another wasted trip to watch Pools, a woeful match played out by two desperately poor teams. Embarrassingly the part timers showed a greater willingness and level of fitness to take the points in the last 15mins. Harrison’s reluctance to use subs and youth is baffling!

Pools team looks completely unbalanced; four centre midfielders, a midfielder at RB, and a RB at LB. Aldershot one of the best teams at the Vic this year, hope I’m wrong but fear the worst!

On the same day Bancroft & Smith make emotional speeches looking for forgiveness, Bairstow scores 97*. Feels like karma after they went out to embarrass him in the head but press conference

Last two results at home are embarrassing, still need 4 points but not sure where they’ll come from. The only good thing is hopefully it won’t gloss over a dreadful season and we bring in a proper experienced manager with an overhaul of the squad
