Dimi Konstantopoulos is expected to start for Pools tonight.

A Niko Muir brace and a close range volley from Jason Kennedy saw Pools emerge victorious against the Northern League Division Two outfit.

The hosts named a strong side featuring several first team players as well as legend Dimi Konstantopoulos who agreed a non-contract deal ahead of the match.

Tow Law rarely threatened as Pools ought to have won more comfortably in the end but settled for the 3-0 win. Look back on the action as it unfolded on Tuesday evening by scrolling through our blog of the night...
