Richie Bennett scored 5 goals in 4 games recently for Hartlepool including a hat trick  having being loaned by Stockport.

Because he was scoring for a rival Stockport have promptly recalled him.

Bit silly loaning him to a rival in the first place, unless they thought he was crap.

Stockport's town centre is slowly getting dragged up. They've got one of those food markets now, bit like Altrincham but not as posh. It's an easy ground to get to and there are some alright boozers. Only down side is we'll probably end up in that crap open end behind the goal and it'll rain.

There are shops everywhere in Stockport. Not just the Town centre but the ones in Edgeley neighbourhood itself. Is so easy to get to. I don't like them because their club legend is the gone again Gannon.

Can anyone recall 8/5/4 when on the last day of the season we needed to win at Rushden and Swindon were playing Hartlepool. We needed to win and duly did with two goals from McPhee who scored 24 that season. If  Swindon and Hartlepool drew them we didn’t make the play offs and strangely enough that’s just what they did. It is for this reason that I don’t want Hartlepool to come up. I even used to manage them before this on Championship Manager. It was my mates computer and he had PVFC.

A certain Mr Stelling revelled in that result. To all intents and purposes it was as close to match fixing as you could get .

The bookies wouldn’t take any bets on that game being a draw,that I can remember. We lost out on a play off position on goal difference. I’ll take Torquay, Halifax, Notts County or Chesterfield. Bennett recalled but wasn’t in the team for Stockport who won 4-0.

Yep, I remember that. It was a really strange atmosphere - we were nailed on to win (which we duly did) and everything hinged on the Swindon and Hartlepool game. It was almost as if everyone knew it would be a fix but were hoping against hope someone might accidentally score and put the cat among the pigeons. In the event, of course, the inevitable happened and everyone trooped disconsolately out of the ground. Awful end to the season and a real anticlimax. Best forgotten - even that brand new ground no longer exists!

R&D was a right weird story. That ground cost a <ovf censored> fortune but was only open for a very, very short time. 

Leon Knight tells the story on one of the podcasts about how they paid him something like £50k signing on bonus in used notes in a bin bag! Then tried to get it back and he claims they hired someone to "Do him in".

That said, he came across as the biggest t*t on the planet on that podcast so who knows what's true or not!

He'd dodge the bullets, he could dive as well as Steino as seen at the Withdean one rainy Friday night in December.
