Hartlepool United are hoping to avenge last season's 7-0 humiliation by Wealdstone when Pools entertain Gary Waddock's side this weekend.

Pools suffered their heaviest defeat in 30 years when the two teams met at Grosvenor Vale in March, with a first half hat-trick from Micah Obiero as well as goals from Dylan Kadji, Anthony Georgiou, Enzio Boldewijn and Olufela Olomola, who made 17 appearances at Victoria Park in the 2021/22 season, effectively ending their slim play-off hopes.

It was a grim evening that just about summed up another underwhelming National League season, while it might well also have confirmed the club in their decision not to offer Nicky Featherstone a new contract as head coach at the end of the campaign.
