Clean Sheet

Zephyr Rovers Manager Steve Hall said he was proud of the way the team bounced back in their fixture against Rothenbury Rangers today at the Shed of Dreams, keeping a clean sheet. "We were awful a week earlier but in this match Rothenbury were out classsed and never really got into the match" said Hall "and if I may say I must have been exceptional in goal because they never scored at all". Former Rovers player Rob Purcell was out with injury but Rangers played Dan Lee at the back. "In fairness to Dan he was easily their best player and if anyone was going to score for them it was him" said Hall "but in the end he had to resort to long range pot shots and fortunately I had them all covered". Pete Roberts was unavailable and this left the twin strike force for Rovers on Jamie Johnson and Matty Cantwell. "These lads both have tricky skills" said Hall "you just have to be sure they don't run into each other too often as the mazy dribbles have a certain random look to them". Hall said it was about his third clean sheet in indoor football.

Final: Rovers 10 Rangers 0
