Preview by Jon Green

On Saturday, Rovers travel to Wimborne Town for the Preliminary Round of the FA Cup. Rovers defeated Thatcham Town in the previous round but since then have lost the first two league fixtures of the season. Craig Loxton and John Durbin's team will be hoping to get the season back on track again in what will be another tough game.

Wimborne had a bye in the previous round but have opened their league season with a 5-2 win over Bishops Cleeve and a 1-1 draw with Exmouth.

Back in October last year, Rovers narrowly lost 3-2 to Wimborne at New Cuthbury but drew 1-1 in the return fixture back in March. Rovers' scorer that day, Nick Hewlett, returns to the squad after missing the long trip to Mousehall. Dan McBeam is available after his suspension but will have his fitness assessed.

There will be a coach leaving from the club at 10.45am sharp and if you'd like to travel, please leave your name on the list inside the club. There will be no fare for this trip but please note that there are limited spaces.
