Colin Cooper has challenged his Hartlepool side to finish the season strongly after seeing their play-off hopes fade in a 1-0 home defeat to Cheltenham.
Pools had chances but Jermaine McGlashan netted 16 minutes from time after Darren Holden failed to clear David Noble’s cross.
James Poole almost equalised but his shot was blocked by teammate Luke James.
Pools’ third defeat in a row leaves Pools them 13th in League Two, 10 points off the play-off slots with six games remaining.
“If I’m brutally honest, we were just short,” Cooper told the club website. “I’ve challenged the players now to finish as high as we possibly can and not let the season drift.”
POOLS: Flinders, Duckworth, Holden, Walker (Hawkins 82), Collins, Burgess, Walton, Compton, James, Franks (Rutherford 84), Barmby (Poole 58).
