Rest is good as a change as Moors lick wounds

CHRIS Millington is looking forward to a ten-day break before his Solihull Moors team is back in action, allowing for extra time on the training pitch as they look to make up lost ground on their National League rivals.

An early Vadaine Oliver goal meant Moors were chasing the game at Hartlepool but had a number of chances to level with debutant Tyrese Sinclair particularly impressive following his loan move from York City. The 24-year-old was at the centre of much of Solihull’s best work, hit the crossbar and had another excellent effort sail over the target. In the end though, the hosts wrapped up the points in the fourth minute of added time when Matty Daly added a second to ensure Moors headed back home empty-handed.

Millington said: “My main area of focus is making sure we put points on the board and climb up the table because we have effectively given everybody a 15-game head-start on us so we need to start putting that right and picking up points if we are to achieve what we think we can achieve.
