We certainly created the chances and had Barnes scored early doors it would have been 3 points in the bag.

However shit happens and no need to worry.

On BBC... It looked liked we were all over them until 2-1
Barnes - what a sitter!!!

The number of sitters Barnes has missed have counted for less whilst we have been gobbling up the opposition but if we go an a less productive run he will have to start converting half-chances let alone ' sitters '

There is no way we were all over them. We were second best apart from 10 minutes at the start of the second half.

The 11 minute highlights package on Hartlepools website gives a better reflection of the game

I haven't seen the highlights but if they make it look like we were all over them then it must have taken some highly creative editing.

Half of the away end jeered the cross that led to the first goal, as we all thought that the ball was going out. The other half were pouring their flasks.

I thought it was a shocking bit of keeping that lead to their first.
In fairness, perhaps Greer would have been better heading it out for a corner.

It wasnt great but you cant drop him after that. Drop greer as well then...

Ankergren has had a very good season so far

I thought the ball had gone out as the player heading it back over Ankergren was a foot over the line as he headed it.

That was the second of Barnes "easy" chances. The one in the first half, he was completley unmarked 8 yards out in the middle of the goal (after Murray knocked it down), and passed it back to the keeper.

same old story. he's obviously got potential but shouldn't be starting every week. he misses LOADS of chances pretty much every match. great movement and reads the games very well... but not a natural goalscorer in my view.
