BBC report - http://www.bbc.co.uk...otball/20320154

 

"League One club Hartlepool have appointed Livingston manager John Hughes as their new head coach.

 

"Pools were searching for a replacement after fellow Scotsman Neale Cooper stepped down last month.

 

"The club were in advanced talks with Phil Brown over the vacancy, but these negotiations stalled."

Can't see the attraction from both sides?

 

Why are they wanting someone like Yogi, whom even Scottish people struggle to understand. He's done nothing since Falkirk.

 

And why is he leaving for a club who are 9 points adrift and looking at league 2 football. Money I know, but it does seem an odd choice.

Seems no other man would take on the job. A fair few rejections by the sounds of it! Already 9 points of safety rooted at the bottom of League 1 and with their board unwilling to invest I can't see this ending in romance for Yogi. Hopefully Livi don't get a decent manager, not felt threatened by them at all this season, perhaps Collins will just step in.

Would Collins want to step in? I was surprised that he joined Livingston.

Hartlepool have one of the finest chants ever sung - and they sing it about themselves...

 

My brother's in borstal

My sister's got pox

My mother's a whore down on Hartlepool docks

My uncle's a pervert

My auntie's gone mad

And Jack the Ripper's my dad

 

Same tune as "We went down to London" by any chance?
