- 0' The game is set. Bristol Rovers FC kicks off things out of here…
- 5' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Trevor Clarke suffering a number of foals already.
- 10' Regan Hendry has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 0 appearances with only 1 goals this season.
- 15' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Bristol Rovers FC that had 291 games and scored 317 goals.
- 20' Supporters expect more eagerness from Zain Westbrooke, as he is very good at scoring at Memorial Stadium with 3 goals in the last 3 games.
