The 2011–12 season was Hartlepool United's 103rd year in existence and their fifth consecutive season in League One. Along with competing in League One, the club also participated in the FA Cup, League Cup and League Trophy. The season covers the period from 1 July 2011 to 30 June 2012.
Background and pre-season
[edit]In pre-season, Hartlepool received media attention having announced a season ticket deal whereby the price would be only £100 if over 4,000 tickets would be sold.[1] The club ultimately sold over 5,600 season tickets.[1] The club also announced the signing of former Newcastle United player Nolberto Solano.[1] During pre-season, Hartlepool played a testimonial for the club's record appearance maker Ritchie Humphreys against local side Sunderland.[1]
Review and events
[edit]The club began the 2011–12 campaign with a trip to Milton Keyns Dons.[1] Hartlepool twice took the lead thanks to goals by Adam Boyd and James Brown but were pegged back late in the match to draw 2–2.[1] They were subsequently eliminated in the first round of the League Cup after a penalty shootout defeat to Sheffield United.[1] Hartlepool would draw three matches in a row before winning five in a row to go 3rd in the league.[1] This was the first time in the club's history that they had gone unbeaten in their first nine matches of a season.[1] This run was ended with a home defeat to Sheffield Wednesday in early October.[1] The following week, Pools suffered defeat once again away to Notts County, losing 3–0 in the televised fixture.[1] Despite the impressive start, Hartlepool would suffer poor home form. Six consecutive home defeats was a club record and signalled the end of Mick Wadsworth's tenure as Hartlepool manager.[2]
Former manager Neale Cooper was announced as Wadsworth's successor.[1] Cooper's first match back at the club saw Hartlepool's eighth successive home defeat.[2] In the next home fixture, Cooper took the decision to start 17-year old Luke James. James scored in the 2–0 win against Rochdale to become the youngest goalscorer for the club in its history.[2] This was a theme at the beginning of Cooper's second spell; giving opportunities to many younger players whilst criticising the performances of more experienced players.[3] This win against Rochdale was followed up with an impressive away point at Sheffield Wednesday and then a comprehensive 4–0 home victory against rivals Carlisle United which gave hopes for a late play-off charge.[2] However, Hartlepool would suffer a 5–0 away defeat to relegation threatened Wycombe Wanderers.[2] Pools struggled in front of goal for their remaining matches and ultimately finished in 13th position.[2][3]
