Profile
Hartlepool United are managed by Dave Challinor who replaced Craig Hignett in November 2019.
Hartlepool count Jeff Stelling among their supporters. The Gillete Soccer Saturday host is a passionate fan of the North East club and regularly bemoans his side's lack of luck. Hartlepool have never played in the top two-tiers of English football, which is surprising considering that they have spent over 80 seasons in the Football League.
