"Yes, there's got to be a certain level of change. Yes, we've got ideas in terms of how we want the team to play. Hopefully, without obviously naming teams and tactics, we can bring that come Saturday."

"I think taking that expectation away now, which we can as interim, is important. It's just about Saturday. It's not about getting promotion, it's about winning on Saturday and then building those blocks to hopefully then think about that come the end of the season."
"This might just be the right club at the right time for him."
The Monkey's Uncle understands that Stuart Maynard is on a list of names being considered by Hartlepool United as the club search for Lee Clark's successor.

"The question is what the club will do now to get their next manager, is it data, is it a specific sort of profile? If it's the same method the club used to appoint Clark, that would be a bit of a concern."

"With the way he wants to play, I think he'd be well-suited to Pools and would hopefully be able to get a bit more out of some of their attacking players."
"I don't know what their plan is. What's their way of playing, what's the club's philosophy, what are they trying to do at the football club? I don't know, and I don't think anyone knows."
"I honestly think the experienced players need to step up, I really do. I think they've got some experienced players in there that aren't playing anywhere near how they can play, and aren't leading the group like they should be."
"It's more than a bit ambitious, it isn't going to happen. I can absolutely, categorically tell you, it isn't going to happen."
"I don't know, the obvious suggestion would be to ask whether the players were playing for Lee Clark. That's the obvious question. I've got no insight as to what goes on in the dressing room, so I've got no idea whether that was the case or not."
"I would hope that those who are making the appointment will act swiftly, but not with undue haste. It's important that they consider absolutely everything, but we do need to get somebody in place pretty quickly and start turning a corner."
"Our immediate focus is on supporting Adam and Gary as they prepare the team for Saturday's fixture against Scunthorpe United, while conducting a thorough and considered recruitment process."

"I think, if anything, as the time went on Hartlepool started to look more unfit and more unsure of what their plan was and what they were trying to do during games."
"The names out there at the moment, we've heard the majority of them before. You sort of think, 'well, they'd be alright, but I'm not sure they're going to come in and do something totally different'."
"It's sort of the logical choice, isn't it? Bearing in mind that the staff don't have a whole load of experience in terms of management, and Chris does."
"I've been at a lot of the games this season and, after the early weeks, a lot of the frustration of the crowd was pretty easy to sense."
