Third time lucky?

After an opening Hellenic League defeat at Sporting Club Inkberrow last Wednesday was followed by a 3-0 defeat in the Emirate FA Cup, Extra Preliminary Round against Kidlington on Saturday, Tuffley Rovers will be hoping it is a case of third time lucky when they host near neighbours Slimbridge in their next fixture on Tuesday evening.

The visitors to Glevum Park won their FA Cup fixture on Saturday, after drawing their opening league game, and are sure to be in confident mood, with an eye on victory, after defeating Rovers in all three of their meetings (League and Cup) during the 2023/24 season.

Kick-off is 7:45pm and admission is £7 Standard, £4 Concessions and £1 for Under 16s.
