Hard Won Point

By Mill House

A superb volley from 17 year old Brad Walker earned a vital point in the mud at Southend. The equaliser came after Pools had defendeded superbly - sometimes back to the wall.

But we al.so had a couple of decent shouts for penalties turned down - most notably when Luke James was brought down.

Barry Corr put the home side ahead just before the interval with Walker's equaliser coming on the hour mark. He chested the ball down and smashed a volley into the top corner.
