Over 150 Hartlepool fans dressed as Smurfs for their final match of the season

First-place Charlton won the match 3-2, but that didn't stop the Hartlepool supporters from enjoying what's become a tradition of dressing up for their final match each season, as well as any other big matches they feel like watching in a costume.
