    41 minutes Rovers 0 - 1 Stevenage scored by Jamie Reid
    No comments on the match from I Follow just the minutes played, hope Daniel Hargreaves doesn't fall asleep otherwise wont know what's happening

    Reid now joint top league 1 scorer with Devante Cole

    2 minutes extra time

    HT 0 - 1

    Finley for Rovers and Freeman for Stevenage have both been yellow carded

    No shots on target at home against a team woefully out of form who are now beating us. Pretty dismal again.

    No Evans in the squad at all - bit strange as he’s been excellent. Must be a very recent injury.

    Formation could be 4-4-2 or 4-2-4 gospel according to Daniel Hargreaves, I think he is as wise as we are

    Rovers have had a couple of corners and forced their GK into making a couple of save think they are trying to win the match and get Mangan the Managers job???

    Looks like Reading fighting back just had their 2nd shot on target saved

    I’d have hoped at the very least that they were trying to win the match!
