Rovers Denied all 3 Points by an 87th Minute Goal!
Early Goal
By MikeyB
February 9 2008
No changes where made from the side that beat Leeds, with Moore's son Ian starting up-front again. The game was started, and finished with a goal. After just two minutes Calvin Zola put Rovers ahead with a short range strike, but in the eighty seventh minute Leyton Orient's Adam Chambers sealed a point for Orient. Rovers may feel as if they were robbed of two points, but thats football.
I wasn't surprised by the late goal today and as Matt said to me after the game you could see it coming.
Second half we had a lot of the ball but created little in front of goal but a draw may be no bad thing against a side inthe same part of the Table as us - especially if we can win on Tuesday!
Man of the Match - Not really sure but I thought McLaren was excellent in the middle today (Jennings was too but McLaren's passing was superb at times).

I thought their goal was coming too, I thought it was strange the way they attacked with so many numbers, if we'd picked out the passes better we would have won, 2 points dropped in my eyes today, I couldn't help thinking we had another gear to go into almost, we should have killed them off in the first half but by the time we got to the final whistle we could have lost the game. Gutted we didn't win but would probably have taken a draw from that before the match.
We battered them first half but again one goal was not enough. We could all see that and they pressed much more in the second half and the goal was always going to come.
