Apparently the Roms have several new players brought in by their new manager. They are determined to pull away from the relegation zone so should be a good match this afternoon
We're off ....

Walker tries to put Reeves through but his pass is too hard.  Harris shoots over for Romulus. Good move by Ilkeston and Reeves is robbed as about to shoot.  Big scramble in Roms goal mouth  just before half time whistle.
