@TomHarrison92: Turn up Tuesday, Saturday and give Sweeney and the lads all the support we have
@StellingRobbie: Gutted doesn’t cut it For me Dave and his family leave Pools as legends. Gave us one of the best weekends of our lives in Bristol and some of the best football ever seen at Pools. It’s a shame these things have to end but we’ll keep going and get behind whoever comes in next.
