MATCH REPORT: CHIPSTEAD

Rovers made it eight defeats on the spin on Saturday when a wonder strike by Michael Dixon gave visitors Chipstead all three points. In all fairness, Chipstead were good value for the win as Rovers, for all their possession in the wrong areas, rarely threatened the visitors goal. There was very little to shout about in the opening exchanges, but it was Chipstead who almost got in on nine minutes. An uncharacteristic mistake by Liam Holden let Andy Somo free, he tried to play in Jerry O'Sullivan but the pass was overhit and the danger averted. With that, the heavens opened and we treated to twenty five minutes of monsoon like conditions before the sun broke through and players and spectators were able to dry off. Not a lot happened in that time with neither keeper being severely tested, and it wasn't until just shy of the half hour that Chipstead's Matt Kerbey was called into action, getting down well to his left to 16 a Courtney Swaby free kick wide. turn
