Coca Cola League Division One
Hartlepool United 5-3 Huddersfield Town
Thought it was unbelievable at half time, this scoreline is even more unbelieveable. Town 3-2 to the good at the break, two free kicks from Liam Dickenson (he hit the post with another one) and an Ian Craney effort, goals from Kevin Kyle (despite the best efforts of N Clarke on the line) and James Brown keeping the home side in it at the break.
With 10 minutes left it looked like the second half would remail goal-less and we would get 3 needed points, but as you might expect thigs never go our way. The linesman gave a penalty (harshly according to the radio) against Joe Skarz, and that was the turning point. Joel Porter sank the spot kick, and Hartlepool had their tails up.
Within 2 minutes they were in front, Kevin Kyle bagged his second of the night, rising above Andy Butler and Joe Skarz to head powerfully home.
The woe was not to end there, when Joel Porter wrapped up the proceedings with a tap into an empty net after dancing round an out-rushing Matt Glennon.
I am completely shell shocked.
