December 06, 2024 December 6 - Poolies at Heart
I am joined this week by Stephen Poxon, freelance author and Pools supporter, to discuss his upcoming book 'Poolies at Heart'. The book is a celebration of Hartlepool United, as told by fans, former players, former managers, and many others who have contributed to the club.
Stephen has spoken to many people in writing this book, and shares a few compelling anecdotes about the likes of Danny Wilson and Ronnie Moore, while touching on how passionate everyone was - and is - about HUFC.
We also speak about the current season, and how Stephen follows the club from afar - St Albans to be exact!
With thanks to Stephen for his time - a fascinating chat about Poolies past and present!
