]Hartlepool United are rumoured to lining up a loan deal for former Newcastle United striker Richard Offiong.
The 23-year-old forward has scored 11 goals so far this season helping Hamilton to the top of Scottish Division One.
The South Shields born striker joined The Accies in the summer of 2006 and is thought to want a return to his home region.

He was at Doncaster for a year up to the July 06 then was released. He's been at Hamilton ever since and scored 22 from 39 appearances since joining.


Edit: This season he's on 11 goals in total and is top scorer in Scottish League 1.

i think the loids rated him very highly but their standards differ from ours
un less they do a Gabbas style deal and nick him from right under our noses

From memory, Offiong was rated by the Loids... as a lazy so and so! Presumably he's trying a bit harder now, at one point he was supposed to be the next big thing.... but then the same could be said for so many youngsters at the big clubs....
