Nothing too much happening. Probably the pick so far for me is Stritch

Tyjon also has something about him that I like, good movement and seems a clever player 

Everything seems to start with Atcheson at the back who likes to stride into midfield with the ball, just guilty of one or two misplaced passes

How's Shorrocks playing?

That was never a pen

Wimbledon 1-0 penalty, poor defending.

Yes it was, the ref gave it.

Second half everyone has started slowly

[rigger]

Aitchesons distribution is poor, he runs out of defence well then gives the ball away too many times. The Wimbledon keeper still hasn't had to save a shot.

Last 15 mins has just been non existent in terms of actual football being played, Wimbledon going down whenever they can to stop the game. Looks like a disappointing evening.

Best chance fell to Tyjon who blazed over the bar from 12 yards

Depressing defeat

[rigger]

Another loss after a poor performance, not a shot on target. No one stood out, very poor passes into the opposition box. In my opinion playing out from the back, is pish.

That was boring rubbish.

[arbitro]

There was no urgency from the young Rovers team, no intensity with players happy to play at a sedate pace playing right into Wimbledons hands. I can't remember a game for a long time with so many stoppages which didn't help the flow of the game. Poor overall and not many of the players impressed like youngsters of recent times.

Triallist in the PL2 side this evening. Looks to be a midfielder.

[bluebruce]

I wonder who the trialist is.

Not sure who Mullarkey-Matthews is either, first time I've heard that name.

He has just gone off injured.

[rigger]

The only standout so far is that our keeper is poor.

[bluebruce]

O'Grady Macken sent off for a second yellow. Must have been watching Brittain in the first team.

[rigger]

OGrady - Maken sent off just before half time (2 yellows).

[rigger]

Half-time 0-0 very poor, by both sides. The trialist is a very light-weight, plodder, left winger.

[bluebruce]

Bloxham 1 nil. Didn't see that coming. He didn't mess around with the finish after we got a lucky break into space.

[rigger]

0-2 Gilzeanan.

[bluebruce]

Excellent goal from Gilsenan. Thought the pass to him was over hit but he somehow stretched his foot onto it to leave the keeper stranded, did well to keep it in play at the byline and finish from a fairly tight angle.

[bluebruce]

Gilsenan subbed off at 71 minutes. Presumably with an eye on him sitting the bench at the weekend. Him and Bloxham are players who always seem pretty decent to me on the few occasions I've seen them.
