Harrison's forward thinking for Pools' big FA Cup derby
The forwards were used as a double half-time change on Saturday at Solihull Moors where Pools won 2-1.
It means the pair are hammering, metaphorically, on the manager’s door for a start ahead of the trip to Mariners Park this weekend.

The lively Munns pulled the strings behind Oates, who was able to stretch a Moors defence who had coped comfortably in the first 45 minutes.
“Jack was fantastic,” said Harrison. “He got in some good positions, as did Rhys.
“Rhys got into two or three position where he should have done better.
“He has run the channels really well.

“But in the second half Rhys did some good running and Jack had them on their toes playing between their back four and the midfield.
“Those half spaces are really important to utilise and he did a great job in that area, he could maybe have got on the scoresheet as well.”
Harrison started the contest at Damson Park with James Thorne, Devante Rodney and Franks as his three most advanced players.
