Stephen Dobbie’s men were the better side for much of Tuesday night’s game, especially in the first-half where they were dominant.
But the Seasiders failed to show a clinical touch in front of goal, squandering two or three gilt-edged chances, while the Baggies took their opportunities when they came their way.

7. Lewis Fiorini - 6/10
Helped build up play in the first-half as Pool looked to build through the thirds, but second-half was more of a challenge. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
8. Charlie Patino - 5/10
Struggled to impose himself on the game and guilty of giving the ball away in some poor areas of the pitch. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
9. Keshi Anderson - 7/10
Hugely influential with plenty of clever play before being taken off at half-time as a result of his early knock. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
10. Morgan Rogers - 6/10
Could have had three on another day. Certainly should have scored with his early chance when he hit the post. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
11. CJ Hamilton - 6/10
Pace caused problems down the left flank and his end product was better. Quieter in the second-half though. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
12. Jerry Yates - 6/10
Drilled wide early on and looked to link up the play, especially in the first-half. But not as effective in the second. Photo: CameraSport - Dave Howarth
