There was more pressure heaped on the embattled boss after goals from Connor McBride, Kairo Mitchell and former Pools frontman Devante Rodney inflicted a second successive home defeat on Sarll’s side.
There’s not a lot going right for Pools at the moment and Sarll’s decision to change his side’s shape to a back three for the first time – in part to deal with the absence of the suspended David Ferguson, the club’s only recognised left-back, and in part to get Mani Dieseruvwe and Gary Madine into the same side – certainly didn’t seem to work.
The Prestige Group Stadium was tense even before kick-off and the frustration ratcheted up a notch when former Gateshead winger Connor McBride opened the scoring just before half time.
