Did the Sutton United 3-3 thriller against Hartlepool United feel like a point gained or two points dropped? That's the fiery debate on the latest Sutton United Talk Time on Podcast!
Host Mike is joined by regulars Mark and Andy to dissect the electrifying, dramatic, and defensively worrying 3-3 draw at the VBS Community Stadium. The team came from behind late on thanks to Edon Pruti's dramatic 96th-minute equaliser against his former club!

The "Agutter Effect": Is the unbeaten run a sign of new momentum, or are the relentless draws a sign of trouble?
Brandon Njoku's impact and the need for another striker: "I think we do need another striker... we're a bit too dependent on those two." - Mark.
The chronic defensive lapses: Are these "moments of loss of concentration" fixable with coaching, or is more experience needed in the backline?
Why "Eight Minutes" of stoppage time gave the U's a crucial boost of belief.
Tune in for the full, honest discussion as we look ahead to the next fixtures!

How do you reset a struggling team? New Sutton United Head Coach Chris Agutter has declared a 'clean slate,' and on this episode of the Sutton Podcast, fan favourite Andy K dives deep into what that means for the club.
Andy joins host Mike Dowling to dissect the tense 0-0 draw against Braintree Town—Agutter's first game in charge—which offered the squad a crucial, confidence-building clean sheet. They discuss the challenges of the brutal Braintree weather, the immediate tactical differences under the new management, and the crucial role of David Ogbonna, who was "brimming with confidence".
Quote Highlight: Andy argues that the key to unlocking the team's potential lies in simplicity: "I think the confidence will come back... It's a clean slate. They're gonna be viewed on... based on a blank sheet of paper in the same way that us fans are going to be looking at the manager in the same way."
We wrap up with a look ahead to the massive FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round fixture against Farnham Town, a true 'banana skin' tie that is now crucial for a much-needed morale boost and financial injection.
