Stalybridge 0 Blackburn Rovers XI 4


MACEO Rigters netted a brace as Blackburn Rovers Reserves ran out 4-0 winners against Stalybridge Celtic in their latest friendly game.

The Dutch U21 international had missed most of pre-season after picking up a hamstring injury earlier in the summer, but he scored a goal in each half at Bower Fold.

Trialist Tom Denton netted a third before Marcus Marshall completed the job.

Please list team members of those who played,with any substitutions, at the end of match reports.
Several times now, these have not been listed.
Very frustrating for the reader not to know who was on the pitch, very unprofesional by the reporter, not to follow standard practice of sports reporting.
