Hull’s defenders are passing the ball amongst themselves as they complain of having no options ahead of them, which is leading to some moans and groans from the home faithful.

They end up knocking it long, where Pool recover the ball fairly easily - which has been a common theme of the opening 20 minutes or so.

Keshi Anderson feeds Shayne Lavery down the left channel, but the striker’s shot is well blocked.

Pool looking a real threat every time they go forward.

Gary Madine flicks on Chris Maxwell’s long ball, Keshi Anderson finds Shayne Lavery who fires across the face of goal. Unfortunately no teammate is there to capitalise.

The game is momentarily paused to allow Chris Maxwell to receive some treatment.

He’s back up now though and is able to continue, as the game restarts.

The rain is absolutely lashing it down here, as Greg Docherty whistles a shot comfortably wide of the Blackpool goal.
