THERE will be a sense of frustration at the 0-0 draw with Leeds from both side’s perspectives.
The West Yorkshire side will be ruing the lack of goals from their control over the game, particularly in the second half.
Rovers will question why their strong start to the match was not maintained, nor replicated later on.
The truth is Leeds did a good job of containing Rovers, preventing the free-flowing football which can be devastating to a side’s prospects of a contest.
It is a fact of life Rovers must get used to and perhaps come up with a solution to if they are to be successful.
Visiting Queens Park Rangers right now will be one of the most intimidating trips in the Football League.
The Championship’s only unbeaten side are flying with a mix of devastating attack that has torn side after side apart couple with a crudely assembled defence that is one of the best you could wish for at this level.
Whilever the unbeaten run continues, there will always exist the optimism in Rangers’ opposition theat they can be the side to inflict that first defeat.
Rovers are always sent out without fear, as they demonstrated in the first quarter of the clash with Leeds.
The lack of fear will stand Rovers in great stead at Loftus Road and could bring QPR down.
A less intimidating away trip comes in midweek with the Ricoh Arena the destination.
However, Coventry are unbeaten so far at home and are enjoying a decent start to the campaign, the first full one under Aidy Boothroyd.
The Coventry trip represents another of those clashes which can be used as a real measuring stick for Rovers’ prospects this season.
Five points from the last three games paints a positive picture – one that could be even brighter with three points from Coventry.
