D'oh. Kiss of death or what. Now we're guaranteed to lose to Monkeyhangers.

Question: Why are Hartlepool called the Monkeyhangers? :flameboun

you may find this hard to believe BUT...Allegedly once upon a time in Hartlepool, a french ship was wrecked off the coast, on board was a supply of monkeys!! BUT when the ship became wrecked the monkeys were later found alive and well on the shore, people in Hartlepool (this is the unbelievable bit!) not having seen a monkey before believed them to be French spies so hung them in public.

:dunce:

Hence the name : Monkey Hangers

They don't like being called this too I believe!!

Interesting that several of our recent managers have won this. We went years without one of these awards

There was always a chance of Magee winning it for March. All the top sides having slipped up here and there. There was no outstanding team who they could award it to apart from us

A tad harsh on MM and his rivals... BHA won 4, drew 1, lost 1, and the nearest rivals only got 1 point less... hardly a fcuk up by anyone!...
