Cotterill Is Not Concerned By Rovers' Results

Forest Green Rovers manager Steve Cotterill isn’t reading too much into the title chasers’ dip in form.

It’s just one win in five for the championship challengers since they defeated York City in November.

While they haven’t lost in that run, recent draws against sides in the bottom half of the National League table have stunted their progress.

Rovers sit third, but they would be top heading into 2025 had they not dropped two late points at Tamworth on Boxing Day.

Cotterill wasn’t critical of his players and challenged them to get back to winning ways at home to fellow west country club Yeovil Town on New Year’s Day.

Rovers had to play six of their first seven games away from home due to pitch problems at the New Lawn and now they’ll play four league games back-to-back in front of their fans.

“The lads are giving everything,” the manager said, despite their late set-back at Tamworth.

“.I don’t have any problems with that. I was just disappointed with the end bit. We have just had one moment right at the death there.

“We did enough for me, we did enough to come away with a good 1-0 win today.”
