Chris Turner and Ronnie Moore return to Hartlepool United eyed by potential investors
The Mail has learned that should a consortium led by Ostersunds chairman Daniel Kindberg be successful in their attempts to take control, they could move to bring the pair back from the footballing wilderness.
Turner’s last job in management was his second spell at Pools, between 2008 and 2010.

Out-of-work Moore has very recently touted himself for a Pools return, having offered his services to both departed Craig Harrison and current caretaker Matthew Bates.
A move for either, or both, would prove popular with fans, who are desperate for good news after a few months to forget.
Kindberg met with a number of UK-based and Swedish potential investors in London last Thursday, in hope of thrashing out a deal to acquire the club from wantaway owner John Blackledge. The Sage Investments chief put Pools up for sale in December last year, having refused to continue to fund the club after ploughing in £1.8million of his own personal fortune.

Chris Musgrave, who held talks with Blackledge about taking the club over, has, to this point, been the only serious investor to come forward.
