Bakes gives Birmingham the Blues
Paul Baker's excellent second minute header beats Martin Thomas and lands in the back of the Town End net. The excellent win maintained Pools' steady but unspectacular start to the season and left them in a reasonable eleventh place in the third division table, the same position they would occupy at the season's end.
