Match Preview

A first ever trip for a league game in Gloucestershire as we travel to Cirencester Town.

Rovers remain unbeaten on the road this season, and will be looking to continue this as we travel the two hours to face the Centurions. Cirencester were moved 'sideways' from the Southern League D1 South over to Central, following a lot of placings from teams in the south west moving into Step 4. Placed 14th, Town have won 3, drawn 3 and lost 5 of their 11 matches this term, a recent 4-3 away win over Ware arguably the most impressive result.

Rovers picked up a 2-2 draw against Biggleswade FC on Wednesday, and will feel slightly frustrated that an 83rd minute equaliser denied them three points. Harry Riley was sidelined for the fixture with an ankle injury, however Pemi Aderoju was named on the bench for the first time in a month.

For any Rovers fans making the trip, the post code for your sat navs is GL7 1HS. Options are either on motorways (M1, M25, M4) or take the scenic cross-country route through the Cotswolds. Train strikes will be affecting journeys this weekend, so please note that roads could be busier than usual.

A safe trip to all Walnuts making the trip.
