Dave Challinor reveals Hartlepool United injury latest ahead of huge Solihull Moors clash - plus an update on Michael Raynes

The rearranged fixture sees Pools in 11th, three points off the top seven, travel to sixth-placed Moors, who are three points ahead of Challinor’s side in the table on Tuesday night (KO 7.45pm).

It is a huge game in the battle for promotion from the National League.

Challinor has revealed he has no new injury concerns and any changes made would be for tactical reasons.

Pools head into the game on the back of the 1-1 draw with Boreham Wood at the weekend.

On the injury news, Challinor said: “Hopefully we’ll be fine.

“There’s nothing from Saturday where I’m thinking, ‘he might struggle’ or anything like that.

“Changes that are made will be tactical changes to try and make us more secure. It’s a quick turnaround and we’ll put a plan in place to hopefully go to Solihull and win there.

“Things have changed for them personnel wise with the new manager coming in and our plan from a couple of weeks back will be different.”

Challinor has also provided an update on defender Michael Raynes, who is out injured with a torn thigh muscle.

The Pools boss has revealed the defender is back running on the grass.

Challinor added: “Raynesy is back on the grass and running but hasn’t joined in any of the ball stuff neither have any of the other lads so I don’t envisage anyone will be back for at least a couple of weeks yet.”
