Match Report

TTA report

A 30-yard free-kick by Gibson (6) proved to be the winner. Nearing half-time Rovers were reduced to 10 men when a player laid hands on the ref, protesting that his team should have had a penalty and there were ugly crowd scenes with the police called. Luckless Rovers hit the post twice. Defeat relegated them.
