Rovers had started the brighter of the two sides, with a couple of half chances, but it was the visitors that gave the first test to either goal keeper with Martin Conway forced to block a goal-bound effort with an outstretched right leg after a low shot by Bates.
Kempston had to make an early substitution as, just before the half hour, Shane Bush suffered a nasty looking clash of heads with an opponent. He was stretchered from the field and treated in the dressing room before being taken to hospital at half time.
Bush was replaced by Jake Newman, who made an immediate impact. A long Grant Fryer ball was contested by Newman and Uxbridge defender Warner, Newman battled well to win the ball and get himself a shooting opportunity, which he dispatched low and across the keeper into the far corner. Kempston continued to press toward the break, chances for Ivy, Fryer and Newman all could’ve extended the lead for the hosts.
Uxbridge managed to get themselves back into the game deep into first half added time, forward Ma’nul managed to bustle his way into the area and tangled with Conway. Despite coming off worse in the challenge, the referee penalised the goal keeper and awarded the penalty, which was converted by veteran forward Anthony Thomas.
Rovers dominated the second half and created several early chances, but it took until the fifty fifth minute to retake the lead. A Luke Heneghan cross found its way to Sam Johnson, who found space to put the ball back across the goal. Several players scrambled for the ball from both sides, but it was Jamaine Ivy who tapped home his seventh goal of the season and thirtieth in Rovers colours.
Kempston pressed forward to get the third goal to make the game safe including some very neat interplay down the right hand side. The extra goal was not needed on this occasion as the visitors only managed one further effort on target, comfortably saved by Conway.
Rovers took the points in the sunshine to keep them sixth in the table, two points behind the play off places, but with games in hand on those above them and an increasingly important fixture on Easter Monday away at Barton Rovers coming up.
