1,021 in attendance.
That tells its own story of what a waste of time this competition really is.

KB says some good build-up from Rovers 1st half, but very little in the 'final third'. Plus ca change...

Are WHU not in their away strip or this a tease? Yes, it's their away kit. Have any other teams ever played in blue, away at Rovers? (Southend have worn their navy blue, but that doesn't count). I suppose I was just trying to underline that our home kit this season is now officially " not blue"!

I have been supporting the club since 500BC and become suspicious of sherpyvanwinscreenwiper wins hailedas turning point in wonky season. However, I don’t see how it can do the psychology of this group much harm. How did Matthews do? Did he get his backside muddy putting in tackles like Clarke wants.

After a dull 1st half rovers produced a very good 2nd half performance and earned a well deserved win. Alex jakubiak was very lively and scored a good goal. Michael kelly stuck to his task well against a very talented west ham winger. Ed upson played very well,matthews was lively though sometimes lost the ball cheaply. Both right-backs did well,leadbitter 1st half,partington 2nd half. Payne worked hard but didnt look sharp near goal. Good cameo by luke russe in the last half hour.

That sounds really promising and is a good note to go to bed on. Second glance at the squad though, there’s names missing that could be five changes into team from out this squad On Saturday. 🙊 big game Saturday. I have a feeling we are going to play well and win. Why? Becuase summer changes could begin to gel now, and as we get to see something better from new players so it will be better team performance. I have a weird feeling we are about to turn a corner.

That's because it is now mostly white.
