Hate to argue with you, Jacob, but as a chap who has twice married Hartlepool ladies, I have met many of their fans and not heard that one.
However, Frigilana's account of their being 2 municipalities, the current Mrs Sidders assures me is correct as is the story about the name change to Hartlepool United.
Hartlepool 1- Notts County 1
Wootton
You know me, I love an argument.
Their own board is pretty unanimous on Pools. http://www.pooliebunker.co.uk/newbun...hp?f=2&t=66198
This is more most-not-lose than must-win, but I was impressed by Hartlepool at our place and fear they may do us again - 2-0 to the monkey hangers.
June 1908
On June 1st 1908 a limited liability company was registered under the name “The Hartlepools United Football Athletic Company Limited” with 2000 £1 shares offered to form a professional club. The shares are not fully subscribed, as there are doubts about professional sport, but Messrs R Martin and W Paterson, former vice-presidents of the rugby club and W J Coates, a former committee member formed the Board of directors of the new company. Although playing at the Victoria Ground, situated in West Hartlepool, the team is named Hartlepools United against public opinion as the company believe it should represent the two Hartlepool boroughs (Hartlepool and West Hartlepool).
