Pools plunge for Poole

12 October 2010 16:00
Hartlepool have signed young Manchester City striker James Poole on a month's loan. The 20-year-old, who can also play on the wing, was part of the City squad which won the FA Youth Cup in 2008 and signed a new one-year deal at Eastlands in March. Poole, who had a loan spell with Bury last season, will play for Pools' reserves against Gateshead on Wednesday evening and could make his first-team debut at Leyton Orient on Saturday.
