‘The Vic would be bouncing!’ – Hartlepool United fans react to dramatic late win over Yeovil Town with praise for young forward Joe Grey

Late goals from Luke Armstrong and Gavan Holohan cancelled out Tom Knowles’ second half opener and saw Pools claim another big three points on home turf.

The win sees Dave Challinor’s side move up to third in the table going into Tuesday night's match at Wrexham (7pm kick-off).

Unfortunately no fans were able to celebrate the win in person but there was plenty of noise on social media afterwards – here’s how they reacted...

@Mark86784761: “Excellent victory. Grind out a win when you're not at your best... perfect.

@HUFC_NWC: “Victoria Park would be absolutely bouncing.”

@paulkeay: “Wow. Did very well to come back and get the win, very impressive. Joe Grey, take a bow, very clever and very skilful! Not sure what is happening but Pools are starting to do things that they haven’t done for a few years.”

@hallydesigns: “My word, what a result that was. Unbelievable from Joe Grey at the end. Superb.”

@MbwLdurham: “I am buzzing, we are showing real fighting spirit, never say die spirit. Showed difference today between hopefuls and definitely a play off team.”

@Scififootball: “Great battle from Pools, had a tough time breaking Yeovil down, but kept going, great spirit.”

@wiktormorrell: “Love it lads. Shame the fans aren't allowed in the Vic. It would be bouncing.”

@Watsoncullen97: “That’s the win we’ll look back on after we promoted and say that got us up. United!

@MarkReeve85: “Great turnaround. 7 on the bounce at home. Happy Saturday.”
