A preview from the Hartlepool Mail's Poolie Podcast.
In the episode, Dom Scurr and Joe Nicholson discuss Hartlepool United's pre-season so far and look ahead to the new League Two campaign.
It's just over a week until Pools kick-off their competitive campaign at home to Crawley Town on August 7. But after three straight pre-season defeats, the optimism is quickly fading.
But Pools are looking to bring several new signings in before the start of the season.
We have analysis on all of that and more in the latest edition of the Poolie Podcast.
