Hartlepool have recieved the boost that Porter and Boland are back from injury and ready to fight for their place in the first team. Craig Hignett made the bench against Darlington but has underlined his determination to get into the starting XI

Hartlepool trio Joel Porter, Willie Boland and Craig Hignett are all fighting for their place in the side for Saturday. Porter and Boland are both fighting fit after long spells out injured and Criag Hignett is looking for his place in the side after signing for Pools last week.

It will not be easy though for the trio to win their places with the side at present in such excellent form. All 3 of them were in the reserve side that beat Hull reserves during the week and Hignett and Porter both scored.

Joel Porter has been out since about November and Boland hasnt played since New Year but the two of them are now proving they are ready to go to help Pools during the promotion run in
