Pete Wild admits he'd hoped Hartlepool United would be 'further down the line' in pursuit of new signings

Speaking ahead of this weekend's visit of a Wealdstone side who put seven past Pools the last time the two teams met in March, Wild reiterated that he would have to move players out before he could bring them in.

Having had the chance to assess his squad since replacing Lee Clark at the beginning of last month, Wild revealed that there were several first team players who are not currently in his plans and, as such, might be well-served by heading out on loan.
