On this day in Rovers history… Rovers have played 11 times on New Years Day down the years, in a variety of competitions, most recently in 1991- against Hitchin Town for the testimonial for John Carmichael.

Cambridge City come into this game off the back of beating Bedford Town 5-1 on Boxing Day and a pre-Christmas victory over Ashford Town.

Rovers Boxing Day reverse at league-leaders Diamonds is only the third defeat in the last nine games for the club. The break between Boxing Day and New Years’ Day will give the squad a few extra days to recover and prepare. Sam Johnson, George Boland and Josh Sturniolo will be looking to return to the first team fold while Ash Fuller and Grant Fryer are long term absentees through injury and work commitments.
