JAMIE McCunnie has impressed all at Hartlepool United since his summer switch from Dunfermline - but believes there is plenty more to come.

After starting every game at right back, McCunnie has switched into central midfield to good affect in his last three appearances.

That is where he spent the best spell of his time at Dunfermline last season, culminating in an appearance in the Scottish Cup final.

With Willie Boland and Antony Sweeney sidelined with hamstring problems, McCunnie has stepped up to the mark.

Pools have started the new season well and sit in fourth spot in the early League One table.

And McCunnie admitted: "It's an ambitious club. you know what it's like, when you are going to sign for a club everybody is going talk it up if they are trying to get you.

"But I decided to make the move and it was all agreed in five minutes once I met the manager.

"It's a club that is going places. It's quite a small club because you have got the big three in the Premiership round about.

"But if we keep playing the way we are and the manager is happy I'm sure we will win more than we lose.''

He added: "I feel I've settled in quite well, there is probably still a bit more to come - you probably don't hit your peak until you are seven or eight games into the season.

"So it's good to get off and running. Pre-season went well and the games so far have gone well.''
