It was building up all week to be a huge game, but in the end it was 2 teams cancelling each other out. With Rovers having the better chances, it could have went either way with both teams putting in a 'battling' performance.

With Rovers trailing Plymouth Argyle 3-0 at half time it was left to interim Manager Colin Crippen to inspire a team lacking confidence and direction. What followed was in the opinion of Talksports Dennis Collymore probably the greatest half time team talk ever. The rest is now history, destined for the annals as one of the greatest sporting comebacks of all time. Wathnail Rovers won the game 7-3, a Charlie Toucan second half hat-trick being the highlight. Collymore afterwards describing that second half display as footballing poetry, he was left waxing lyrical on Colin Crippens motivational skills. The pundit is now tipping the new Wathnail boss for greater things including a likely move to a high profile side come the close season. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
