I'll start, Jack Nolan at Morecambe, contact comes to an end in June of this year, 18 goals scored so far this season in a team that is being relegated.

We'd all have Harvey Cartwright back in a shot based on the games he played for Pools before he got injured, but that's the catch.

Since he went back to Hull 6 months ago to get treatment for a thigh injury he hasn't played at all. He was still on their injury list 6 weeks ago.

He didn't play at all last season. The year before he had a really good loan spell with Grimsby but got injured. The year before that he had a season long loan at Peterborough but only played twice because of injuries.

The lad obviously has bags of talent but can't seem to stay fit.

No doubt he'll be a free agent in the summer, so it's up to Pools whether they take a chance on him. Trying again for George Evans might be a better bet.

Just a load of improvements who always give 100%.

Should never be a shortness of effort in a luxury part time job on fulltime wages.

And a 442 manager.
Not this 1 up front shit that opposition defenders earn their wages to easy.

It's a basic game really.

UTP.

Pools have been beaten by part time clubs/players over the last few seasons, there are I am sure plenty who can’t afford to go full time but could do a job for Pools.

in the first 50 years of pools being a league club they have had plenty part timers playing for them. like i,d guess the same with all old league 4 and 3rd div N and S teams.

a massive gamble that. look at his goal stats before this season and probebly the reason morecambe got him late. a lot depends on the amount of money we,ll have to gamble with

question to ask is he has been unlucky or injury prone. on many occasions they are not the same thing. if not him then not Evans as i always found him a poor version of cartwright

top of my list would see us going back to our old hunting ground halifax and sign there young midfielder cody johnson a good box to box midfielder who can defend but not known for scoring goals. that could refease miley to play further up who does have a shot on him and could be capable of double figues in goals.
