43 brilliant photos of passionate Hartlepool United fans during Worthing defeat

Hartlepool United suffered a 3-1 home defeat against Worthing in the final game of Lee Clark’s reign as head coach.

It was another difficult day for Hartlepool United fans as their side suffered a sixth defeat in their last seven games against National League rivals Worthing on Saturday lunchtime.

Pools were looking to move on from a challenging week after they suffered defeats in an away day double-header at Kidderminster Harriers and Altrincham - but they slipped into the bottom six of the National League table after goals from Cory Adjetey-Brew, Ricky Aguiar and Jose Marquez gave their visitors a 3-1 win at Victoria Park.

Almost 4,000 Poolies were on hand to witness what would become the final game of Lee Clark’s reign as head coach of their beloved club after the former Newcastle United and Sunderland midfielder announced his resignation in his post-match press conference.

With all eyes on what comes next for Pools, we take a look at some fantastic photos of fans during another day of change at their club.
