Hartlepool lost more ground in the race for a National League play-off berth after a 0-0 draw at home to Maidenhead.
Anthony Limbrick watched Pools once again struggle to create chances against the relegation-threatened visitors and they have now claimed only one victory from their last seven matches.
This goalless draw places Hartlepool ninth in the division and five points off seventh-placed Altrincham, who have two matches in hand.
Emmanuel Dieseruvwe went closest for the home side in the first half only for Craig Ross to make a fine save from close range.
Both teams pushed for a late winner and Maidenhead almost claimed all three points when Casey Pettit struck the crossbar but it finished all square.
