Lewis misses a sitter heading straight at the keeper from a great Lloyd cross. Vaughan did the same earlier. Hope we don’t regret these missed chances....

A very good and confident half from rovers and the only negative is we’re only 1-0 up. Linking up well especially down the left side and defensively solid.

Cooper won’t be happy at all so suspect he’ll either make changes and or give them a rollicking at half time. Just need Khan who is playing well to be careful with a couple of risky passes across our defensive third plus he’s got to stop Cadden getting crosses in from the left.

Really need that second goal and I’m confident we’ll go on and win If we get it. Suspect they’ll be a reaction from them though and they’ll want our defence under more pressure.

A great half from Rovers. We have played some lovely stuff and Feeney at the tip of the diamond makes such a difference to the quality of our play. As Sparky says, just hope we don't rue missed chances as we should be at least a couple of goals up.

Matt is coming on for them by the look of it. A different kind of threat.

Been a strange game. Both sides had two good chances in the opening 20 minutes, but after that Rovers seemed to get more of a grip on the game and had the bulk of the chances and play. Agree on the balance of play we should be further ahead, but also share Sparky's concerns regarding Khan with a couple of risky balls across the box.

As predicted they made a HT change with Matt on. They’ll have to go for it now

a let off as FGR hit the bar

Brilliant double save from Scottie keeps them at bay. More goals in this game I reckon

Brilliant save by Davies there to stop a certain goal.

Goal for FGR although they have been threatening.

Far too open this game. Need some changes making to stop their attacks

Ferrier and Morris on for Woolery and Lloyd. Would have like CBT with his pace to hit them on the counter. Need Ferrier to hold that ball up
