Rovers now 2 points ahead of Burton, if they can hold or improve this lead we might just get the boost we need to stay in league , we are now out of the relegation zone

42nd minute Hunt wins a corner for Rovers with the Gas Heads making most of the noise which Shaw took and Moore headed just wide

1 minute extra time indicated but O'Connell down for Wrexham and the match is delayed

O' Connell back on his feet and the Referee has blown for half time Wrexham 0 - 1 Rovers

70th minute Thomas fouled free kick on the left

74th minute Thomas fouled by the corner flag free kick Rovers which Shaw takes short to an ynmarked Thomas who shot is off target

Orient have equalised against Cambridge

Todays attendance 9192 with 211 being away supporters

with one foot in league 2 if we don't get an improvement in the squad I think this time next year we will have 1 foot in the national league

About 10 minutes plus extra time to get a win cannot see it happening

81st minute Sinclair to take a Rovers free kick which is on target but straight at their Keeper

83rd minute a Shaw shot hits Sinclair who is in the way

3 minutes extra time to be played fans already leaving

FT Rovers 0 - 1 Stevenage, if Burton can win 1 of their three remaining games we will be relegated because I cannot see us beating Reading or Blackpool

I believe the squad needs a complete overhaul get out some of our old injury prone players and bring in some decent players who will have pride in wearing the blue and white quarters

Quite a decent turnout seeing as we are but relegated and all for nothing, very few shots let alone on target and with Sotiriou probably out injured I cannot see where our goals are going to come from in the next couple of matches
 
Hope he does, I don't think it's the manager that's at fault just that some of the players just do not seem interested, and of course losing Sotiriou to an injury didn't help matters
 
I think we'll end up with Steve Evans. He was unusually complimentary about the club the last time he was here.
