Our Wicklow League team took on league leaders Newtown United and turned in a spirited performance despite a 3-0 defeat. The first half was a tight affair with the sides going in at the break scoreless. Rovers had the misfortune of having a goal disallowed for a disputed offside. Newtown struck the front early in the second period and it seemed to knock the stuffing out of the lads. The away side went on to add two more goals to record a 3-0 victory to keep them top of the pile. The lads will take great heart from this defeat as they were well in the game for a long way against a very good Newtown side.
