ENGLISH LEAGUE DIVISION 1
Venue: VICTORIA PARK
HARTLEPOOL UNITED 0 CRAWLEY TOWN 1
Scorer: Akpan
Hartlepool lying second from bottom against Crawley in a play off slot. Hope Akpan got the only goal of a disppointing game at Victoria Park with a dipping volley from just outside the penalty box.
Neil Austin went closest for Hartlepool but he was denied twice in the second half by Paul Jones in the Crawley goal.
Personal note: Firsts all round new stadium visited (78 in total) and two new clubs added to my list.
