Brobbel extends Hartlepool stay
Hartlepool have agreed with Middlesbrough to extend midfielder Ryan Brobbel's loan spell for a further month.
The 21-year-old winger has made seven appearances for Pools since arriving on loan in early August.
Hartlepool-born Brobbel, a Northern Ireland Under-21 international, made his debut in the 1-0 defeat at Stevenage on the opening day of the season.
He will remain with Pools until after the League Two fixture at Exeter on Saturday, October 11.
Brobbel, who progressed through Middlesbrough's academy, had two separate loan spells at York last season.
