Dolby system fails

Gresley Rovers face a major defensive headache with the start of the Beazer Midland campaign just two weeks away.
Manager Steve Dolby saw his back line destroyed in a 4-2 defeat at Armitage last night and admitted: Defensively, we�ve got a lot to do. We were bad at the back tonight but at the moment I don�t have many options. It�s an area I�m certainly looking to strengthen.�

Dolby hinted that he may be running out of patience when he said: �Players have got to prove they�ve got the desire to get into the team. Some are doing that, others are not showing enough.�

Rovers� pre-season build up continues against Westfields at the Moat Ground tomorrow (3pm) in a benefit game for the family of the Hereford club�s striker Brian Preece, who was killed in a road accident.
