Had the chances but just couldn't take them. Most annoying thing is that our own striker Lee Young-Joon sealed the win for Kaiserslautern.
F*ck.

In terms of incomings, I am really happy with the players that have come in this transfer window.
As we haven't done this for a while, please find below screenies of our current squad. On paper, this side is definitely good enough to be challenging Bayern for the Bundesliga as well competing in the Champions League.
Goalkeepers
28 - Simone Scuffet - Only starting keeper after joining at the start of last season from Udinese. Still got a good few years left in him.
1 - Abdulhamit Celik - New signing and a highly rated young keeper from Turkey. Has a bright future.
Right Backs
16 - Joshua Kimmich - Entering his third season at the club since joining from Juventus. Naturally a CDM but a good quality RB. Barcelona were sniffing around him last month.
12 - Pascal Fofana - Brilliant young defender who can play LB,CB or RB. Only 20 years old and entering his third season at the club.
Left Backs
17 - Para - Attacking left back who can also play LM. Impressed last season in his first season at the club. Was subject of a bid from Atletico Madrid last month which was knocked back.
Centre Backs
24 - Esteban Sanchez - In my opinion, this lad could become one of the best CB's on the game. Featured 17 times last season, should be starter this season.
3 - Maik Knoll - Come through our youth academy and called up to the senior squad this season. Been capped by the German Under 19 side.
5 - Phil Jones - Former Manchester United and Chelsea CB. Entering his fourth season at the club, experienced head for the younger lads.
20 - Thorsten Oesterhelweg - Another one who has progressed through our youth academy. Been capped by the German national side and can also play RB.
Centre Midfielders
7 - Nick Powell - Entering his fifth season at the club since joining us from Manchester United. Surprisingly, he has never been capped by England.
22 - Gianluca Gaudino - Entering his third season at the club, a good all round CM to have in the squad. German too which is a bonus.
6 - Nahruel Barros - New signing who has recommended by our scouts. Only 18 years old, definitely one for the future.
15 - Amar Bouadia - Joined us three seasons ago and has spent the last two seasons out on loan. At 19 years old, he is another one for the future but one I feel would not look out of place in this side.
19 - Alen Halilovic - Summer signing and a player I have had my eye on for a while. Great stats and still at a good age, will hopefully be a top player for us.
23 - Sven Surma - Been with us since the start of this career so I think we all have a bit of affection for this guy. Still young but really needs to push on this season if he is to have a future here.
Right Midfielders
11 - Lucas Ocampos - Can play on either the right or the left wing. Had a great first season for us last season and hoping for even better this season.
8 - Diego Sosa - New signing from Argentinian side Rosario Central. Has not been capped for the full national side but can't see it being too long before that happens.
45 - Maximillian Meyer - Talented midfielder who can play either RM, LM or CM. German international and a good age too. Big fan of this player.
Left Midfielders
21 - Jack Grealish - Our highest valued player in the side and entering his third season at the club. Been attracting interest from Bayern and Real Madrid in the past month. Regular for the England national side, not a bad player for a free transfer!
14 - Maximillian Arnold - Classy player who can play LM, CM or RM. German player too which is a bonus. Actually came through our youth academy before moving onto Wolfsburg, Bayern and then back to ourselves.
25 - Nabil Fekir - New signing after joining on a free transfer from Lyon. Been a key player there for a few seasons- adds depth to our squad.
Strikers
10 - Kevin Volland - Our highest paid player on a massive £125k a week. Managed 21 goals last season and entering his second season at the club since joining from Real Madrid.
4 - Abel Casquete - New signing from Barcelona on a free transfer. Signed from River Plate as a youngster but has lost his way in recent seasons. Excited about this lad.
9 - Alberto Cerri - This man needs no introduction. Only captain and key man entering his fourth season at the club. Cerri has scored 90 goals in past three seasons in all competitions. Simply amazing and somehow still not been capped for the Italian national side.
18 - Ignacio Russiani - Joins on loan from PSG- Been capped by the Argentinian national side. Definitely a good back up.
29 - Mahmoud Mohamed - Spent last season out on loan and did well and deserves a chance in the first team.
Will upload now.

Rejected it but only as they are only biggest rivals in the league. Yes, he's a good player but he's definitely replaceable. He's still our player... for now.

Just couldn't say no to this guy on a free transfer. Even if he doesn't set the world alight here, I am sure we can get a hefty resale value for him.

Was getting on and wanted to leave so decided to terminate his contract early.
Brought in this guy as his replacement. At 18 years old he looks brilliant and definitely one for the future as being a more than handy number two for Scuffet. He turned down PSG to join us. Signed for an initial fee £400k with £2.5 million being made over 48 months.

#322397 The Managerial Career Of Adam Boyd
Fola
Hartlepool United will be plying their trade in the SkyBet League One next season thanks to yesterdays Play Off Final win against Notts County. Despite losing in the Play Off Semi Finals last season, Hartlepool were not expected to be in the promotion mix this season. Hartlepool are expected to have one of the lowest budgets in League One next season and will be clear favourites for relegation.
Hartlepool manager Adam Boyd has been in charge at the club for two seasons after taking over from Ronnie Moore. Boyd could not hide his delight at winning promotion to League One: " When I took over here two seasons ago I had a lot of critics doubting my ability to be a manager. We were favourites for relegation in my first season at the club and to win promotion this season is amazing, it's like a dream. People will write us off but I am sure we can survive next season if we recruit well this Summer. We will not be making wholesale changes however, these lads deserve their shot at a higher level". Hartlepool's retained list is set to be announced in the coming days.

@Dan - Thanks Dan, really glad we managed to get through at the end of I thought we had blown it. Glad you liked the last update, took me a while as I had to pause and write up every time anything of note occurred but glad you enjoyed it mate.
@Suffolk Seasider - It was very nervy! I would of been devastated if we would of lost it on penalites- good old Rakish Bingham saved the day... He managed 16 goals from RM this season.

Notts County Starting XI: Loach; Hewitt, Fry, Amevor, Adams; Thompson, Phillips, Palmer, Saville, Waters; Pope.
Subs: Butler, Ajayi, Milsom, Lager, De SIlva, Kusunga, Bennett.
Hartlepool United Starting XI: Carson; Duckworth, Worley, Harrison, Carroll; Bingham, Walker, Hollands (c), Nelson-Addy, Blair; Fenwick.
Subs: Guthrie, Szmodics, Williams, Hippolyte, Gallagher, Lookman, Reid.
1': KICK OFF: Scott Fenwick and Ebby Nelson-Addy get the game underway for Hartlepool in what is undoubtably the biggest match of the season for these two clubs.
7': Michael Duckworth brings down Notts County midfielder George Saville in the middle of the park. Notts County fans are wanting a yellow card but the referee is only giving him a talking to.
20': YELLOW CARD- Hartlepool left back Jake Carroll has been given a yellow yard for a foul on the impressive George Saville. Carroll will need to be careful for the rest of this game.
21': Matty Blair nearly opens the deadlock for Hartlepool after some great work by Scott Fenwick found the winger a shooting opportunity but his effort was well parried by goalkeeper Scott Loach.
43': YELLOW CARD- Notts County midfielder Blair Adams has picked up a yellow card after a needless goal on Hartlepool winger Rakish Bingham.
44' YELLOW CARD- Hartlepool centre midfielder Ebby Nelson-Addy has been awarded a yellow card after a poor tackle on Notts County right back Elliot Hewitt. Lucky to get away with a yellow there.
45' HALF TIME- HARTLEPOOL UNITED 0-0 NOTTS COUNTY You can tell both sides are scared about making a mistake. A match of limited opportunities so far. It looks like it will either take a moment of madness or a moment of genius to open up this game.
45': KICK OFF: Jamie Pope and Matt Palmer get the game back underway for Notts County. Neither side has made a change as of yet.
48': HARTLEPOOL SUBSTITUTION- Matty Blair leaves the field for Hartlepool and has been replaced by Sammie Szmodics. Szmodics will of been unhappy not to start as he has scored in his past three matches, now is his time to shine.
53': NOTTS COUNTY SUBSTITUTION- Striker Jamie Pope leaves the field to be replaced by 17-year old Liam Lager. This is Lager's debut for Notts County and what a time to make it. Could he be Notts County's hero this afternoon?
66': NOTTS COUNTY SUBSTITUTION- Centre midfielder Matt Palmer has come off to be replaced by Robert Milsom who will slot in at centre midfield in a like for like change.
72': NOTTS COUNTY SUBSTITUTION- Notts County make their final change as Elliot Hewitt is replaced by former Arsenal youngster Semi Ajayi.
76': HARTLEPOOL SUBSTITUTION- Hartlepool Captain Danny Hollands has been replaced by Jake Gallagher. The former Portsmouth man looks devastated to be coming off but did seem tired in the middle of the park.
81': GOAL FOR HARTLEPOOL!- Rakish Bingham has opened the deadlock for Hartlepool with only ten minutes remaining. There was some great work between Jake Carroll and Sammie Szmodics on the left hand side. Carroll whipped in a cross to the far post to Bingham who headed the ball home for his sixteenth goal of the season!
83': HARTLEPOOL SUBSTITUTION- Hartlepool striker Scott Fenwick is making his way to the bench to be replaced by striker Bradley Reid. Fenwick has played really well for Hartlepool to be fair but Reid is a pacey player and could hurt Notts County's tired legs late on.
89': GOAL FOR HARTLEPOOL!- Substitute Sammie Szmodics looks to have sealed promotion for Hartlepool! Nelson-Addy has been an absolute warrior for Adam Boyd's side this afternoon, he played the ball to the advancing wing back Duckworth who drilled a ball low across the area to Szmodics who had the simplest of finishes! Szmodics has now scored in his last four matches!
90': FULL TIME- HARTLEPOOL UNITED 2-0 NOTTS COUNTY Hartlepool have won promotion to the SkyBet League One! In what was an extremely nervy match, two goals in the last ten minutes for Hartlepool have won them the game. Rakish Bingham scored a great first goal and as Notts County pushed for an equaliser, Hartlepool made them pay with some good football which was finished off by Sammie Szmodics. What a brilliant day to be a Hartlepool supporter!

However, the reverse fixture ended in a three-two win to Notts County as a Scott Fenwick brace was not enough for Hartlepool to come away with a result. Despite finishing 11th last season, Notts County were one of the favourites for promotion this season and are bound to be favourites going into Saturday's match against Hartlepool.

Adam Boyd could not hide his disappointment at the injury of the talented youngster: " It's a huge blow for us and we will definitely miss him. We brought him off against Crewe as a precaution so we are devastated to find out the full extent of the injury. We would not be in this position without him and we thank him for that. Hopefully we will see him again in Hartlepool shirt but we need to concentrate on tomorrow's match and hopefully ensure we gain a win for Rushian who I know is absolutely devastated". Boyd also revealed that centre midfielder Pelly Ruddock has also been ruled out for the rest of the season after twisting his ankle in training in a double blow for Hartlepool.

Hartlepool United face Crewe Alexandra next Saturday in the most important match of their season so far. With only one match to go, Hartlepool can secure a play off spot with either a win or a draw against Crewe however, if Crewe manage a win, then Hartlepool will fall out of the play off places.
Hartlepool manager Adam Boyd has dubbed this match the club's most important match so far under his tenure: "Our form hasn't been great lately but this match is like a cup final for us. We will be going out there to grab a win as if we sit back, it invites pressure onto ourselves. We need to get a result against Crewe who are a good side but I am sure we can do it. We deserve to be in the play offs and I am hopeful that come 5 o'clock on Saturday, that we will be there."
