No Hartlepool sale before end of season

Hartlepool United have two games remaining of their National League season

Hartlepool United will not be sold before the end of the season, says the club's interim board.

However, BBC Radio Tees understands that negotiations are ongoing with parties interested in taking over the club.

In a statement on the club's website, the interim board stressed that due processes with potential interested parties were still ongoing but would not be completed before the National League season finishes on 5 May.

Current owner Raj Singh will fund club operations until that date, as he stated when he put the club up for sale last month.

The club plans to release season tickets for the 2025/26 campaign on Thursday to show "potential investors and owners how valuable Hartlepool United is".

They also stated that revenue generated from these would be ringfenced to maintain the club's operations beyond the end of the season, which has been formally endorsed by the current owner.
