The Poolie Bunker

Who thinks there is too much boxing coverage in the Hartlepool Mail? I'm sick of reading about boxres from Darlow and other areas who fight under the Hartlepool banner. Does anyone actually care about boxers who aren't from Hartlepool? I've just watched that Geard Anjovic on Eurosport. The Mail said he's a Hartlepool boxer, but he was born in Serbia and lives in Liverpool and had SCOUSE on his shorts! WTF?

I've seen Coulson fight and she rarely gets hit a lot, she is actually very good. At least she IS a Poolie. I wouldn't mind battering her round the ring.

Not enough boxing coverage IMO.As a big boxing fan i'd like to see far more space given to the noble art than cricket rugby and Boro,Sunderland and Newcastle.

After football, boxing is the second biggest sport in the town and given our long line of home-grown and out of town, Hartlepool trained champions it deserves a far bigger spread.

In my opinion like

Don't agree with that like. More people box than play rugby or cricket? And what about fishing?

At the Charity Do' the other week Stevie Picton dressed as that horrible lass on Little Britain asked her....

'If you are actually having a fight and you come on....who throws the towel in'????

My mistake, i meant as a spectator sport....as in public popularity.

When was the last time you saw 1,000 fans at Park Drive, Brinkburn or the Friarage?

Infact when was the last time you saw 100 people at Park Drive?
