I went to see Rocester again. Things had got no better. They've lost every game this season. The manager's quit, they have no replacement and if they'd lost on Saturday that would have been 50 consecutive league games without a win. They lost their last two games 5-0 and 6-0.
They are my new heroes. You have to be so committed and so brave to keep turning up when you haven't won a game for 50 games. They looked like they were going to hang on for a draw (which would have been a victory of sorts - their first points of the season) but conceeded a scrappy goal from a corner in the 85th minute. Very sad. But they'll play on.
