3pm kick off that's a strange time ....pity it was not 7pm would get more along to watch Three possible reasons: -AA/RAC say Friday is going to be the busiest day on the roads over the Christmas period. Will only get worse in the evening. -how good are the Oaklands lights? -they don't want 'more along to watch' a CityvRovers match!! |

crowd trouble ..drunken yobs out celebrating xmas break from work
better opportunity for Johnson before he drives up to QPR and Clarke to see their youngsters play just incase they are needed 24 hours later
Oakland floodlights are perfectly fine...all GFA finals played their under lights

The Match certainly does not appear to be very well advertised on the club site.

First half honours even. HT 0-0
Rovers marginally the better team in second half; but.....
City score from penalty. Menayse brought their forward down. No protests.
Rovers score from rebound off post. FT 1-1
Straight to penalties.
All on target , but their 'keeper saved 2 and Alexis saved 1
Both 'keepers played well.
Dunwald up front looked useful for us.
Ben Morgan @ CB looked imposing.
Kelly composed @ LB
Ryan Broom was OK but doesn't make the impact you'd hope a first team
squad player would.
Very very misty. At times hard to see other side of pitch.
About 150 there, incl Steve Hamer.
