1. Ben Killip - 7
A much-improved display with three good saves and several convincing claims for the ball. Hopefully, he can deal with the pressure back at the Vic on Monday. Photo: Frank Reid
2. Mark Kitching - 6
An attacking threat but lacking the final ball. Moved further back due to a formation change as Pools defended well. Photo: Mark Fletcher
3. Fraser Kerr - 7
Looked more comfortable in a back three. Still one or two sloppy moments but rarely troubled at the back. Photo: Mark Fletcher
4. Nicky Featherstone - 6
Couldn’t help Pools control the game as there was limited link-up between the attack and defence. Photo: Mark Fletcher
