Hartlepool out of the big league

By Daily Sports on May 7, 2017

Hartlepool will play outside the Football League for the first time since 1921 next season

Hartlepool United's 96-year stay in the Football League ended as they were relegated despite battling back to beat Doncaster Rovers, who missed out on the League Two title on the final day.

Two Devante Rodney goals looked to have kept Hartlepool up, but Mark O'Brien's late winner for Newport County in their game saved the Welsh club instead.

Andy Williams had put Rovers ahead before United's stunning fightback.

But O'Brien's 89th-minute Newport goal sent Hartlepool to the National League.
