Leyton Orient boss Russell Slade told 91热爆 London 94.9:
Slade: "I'm sick at that result"
"I'm absolutely sick. We're all disappointed because we worked very hard and controlled the game.
"There is no way that Hartlepool deserved to win the game today but we should have built on the 1-0 lead.
"We had opportunities to put the game beyond them and a second goal would have seen us do that."
