An unchanged Rovers side played out a point against Lincoln City at The Bolt New Lawn. Jordon Garrick cancelled out Ben House’s first half strike, which saw Rovers pick up their first point at home under Duncan Ferguson.

Three minutes in, the opening chance fell in favour of the visitors and Ben House audaciously flicked an inviting ball from defender ack Regan Poole past Ross Doohan into the Rovers net.

Rovers had been pushing for an equaliser since the early goal, and loanee Charlie Savage took it upon himself to strike from distance. His effort troubled Carl Rushworth who spilled the initial shot, but was quick to reclaim the ball.

There was a big miss from Lincoln’s Olamide Shodipo 10 minutes before the interval, as he got in-behind with only Doohan to beat, but his effort was blazed over the bar and into the South Stand.

Ferguson made three changes at half-time, and 12 minutes into the second half, Rovers’ pressure paid off and Jordon Garrick produced a moment of individual brilliance as Jamie Robson whipped in a low ball into Tyrese Omotoye, who left it for Garrick to wriggle past the Imps’ defence and slot home.

A big headed block from Ben Stevenson following a Lincoln corner stopped the visitors regaining the lead again in the 65th minute.

Corey O’Keeffe was provided with a golden opportunity 15 minutes from time as he was played in one-on-one but failed to put any power on his shot, which ended up in Rushworth’s grasp.

Rovers kept searching for the winner late into the 90, and it was Myles Peart-Harris’ turn to have an attempt, but ‘keeper Rushworth was equal to his effort.

FGR travel to Accrington Stanley next weekend as Ferguson continues to search for his first win.
