00:00Just to add on the fan base Robbie, it's fairly divided I would suggest.
00:03Various fan groups at pools at the minute with different opinions.
00:09I suppose it's key isn't it that everyone
00:12tries and sticks together certainly over the next few weeks and
00:16first and foremost pools get over the line and secure their National League
00:19status and then hopefully we can all hope for a
00:21brighter future under new owners.
00:25Yeah I think for any new owners one of the biggest selling
00:32points has to be the fan base. I mean Harkerpool have
00:35had some amazing days in recent
00:40years even if the football hasn't always been
00:43the best. The first half of that season when they return to League Two, I
00:48remember the Carlisle game three or four weeks into the new campaign
00:54pools won 2-1. I think Gavin Hollihan scored a pretty spectacular second half
00:58goal. It was just fantastic. The feeling inside the ground
01:05was incredible. There were days when I would turn up to a game
01:10I genuinely felt there was no way pools could lose because the fans were so
01:13behind them. The atmosphere was so impressive and
01:17there's no reason that that can't happen again. It was
01:21only three or four years ago let's not forget and so I think for any
01:25new owner that's going to be something that really appeals
01:29to them.
