HARTLEPOOL United last night announced another new date for their trip to Colchester, following Football League intervention.

The League One game was due to take place on February 18, but the Us' FA Cup run meant it couldn't go ahead.

Colchester last week announced it had been re-arranged for Tuesday, April 25, but Pool hadn't agreed on that date and a Pool spokesman said: "There have been ongoing negotiations between both clubs.

"However, the Football League have now decided that the game will go ahead on Tuesday, April 11.''

Pool will now play seven games in April, with the Layer Road visit sandwiched between a trip to Swindon and a home game with Bristol City.
