Come on Russ Wilcox and Trinity, hope you can do what Rovers haven’t been able to do and beat Harrogate Town tonight!

Half Time 0-0

Well done Trinity.

I know it’s easy to say but if Trinity could just push forward a bit more and go for a higher press, they might ease the pressure a little and unsettle Harrogate at the back when they manage to break.

Howe for Trinity is a very isolated striker and needs more support from Trinity’s midfield.

Not easy when you’re 73 places below your opponents, I know.

One thing in Trinity’s favour is that they will not be intimidated by the home fans.
“Football in a library” was never more apt.

Come on Trinity fans, get behind your lads this half!

shocking challenge from Gainsborough lad there.... should have been off.  But begs the question, why have all that kit just off the pitch..

Nasty injury feel for him nothing much as a challenge but wasn't needed, unlucky to hit his head on some pitch side equipment ( looks like a temporary goal net but TV says it was the stretcher)

Harrogate deserved lead

Ironic to get a head injury by colliding with a stretcher.

0-1 with 20 minutes to go, Russ has to throw the kitchen sink at this now.

Two points. Trinity should have had a penalty.

Stephen Duke-McKenna looked a hell of an attacking midfielder.

I think that if that tackle had been made outside of the penalty area it would have been given as a free kick, and possible a booking.
I thought it should have been a definite penalty.

Harrogate should be fined for having equipment so close to the touchline, it is an obvious danger.
