£1.85 a pint is probably the best thing about the National League, mind you Hartlepool is a bloody long way to get a bargain like that :D
I really hope we never find ourselves in the National League again.
But one day Hartlepool may be back with us.

The National League paper seems far better value than
The Football league paper.
