Pools form must improve - Turner

By BBC Sport
Thursday, 18th March 2010
Pools form must improve - Turner.

Hartlepool director of sport Chris Turner has said his side need to be more ruthless away from Victoria Park to halt their poor away form.Pools have failed to record a victory on their travels since October and have lost nine away games in succession.

"We've played some very good football away from home, and got absolutely nothing," Turner told BBC Tees.

"We've got to get something in these games, continue our home form and we'll finish mid-table."

Pools' fortunes have not been aided by improved results for Exeter City, Oldham Athletic and Brighton in the last week, leaving Turner's side just two points above the drop zone.

However the former Sheffield Wednesday boss believes his side's fate lies in their own hands and is adamant that safety is a definite possibility.

"Forget about everybody else, it's about what we do, and our away results since Christmas have put us in this position," he said.

"Our home results are fine, it's our away results, not picking points up that has dragged us back down there."
