We are, we're not even attempting to press the ball in their half.

First chance of the game falls to Hartlepool just wide of post thankfully.

I hate to mention an ex-Red on this message board, but I'd love to go back to the days of full-backs like Stuart Pearce who intimidated attacking wide players and put both the ball and the man in the stand.

Thought we have played well under a lot of home pressure.

That's an early change Griffiths for Knight. Has IB decided that we need to get players behind their defence?

That’s better, could’ve / should’ve been 1-0, Wootton did the hard work to get in front of his man and I would’ve bet on him scoring.

Interesting Knight for Griffiths - going for it?
