Hollins upbeat despite defeat

Weymouth manager John Hollins was upbeat despite his side's 2-1 pre-season defeat against Bristol Rovers on Wednesday night.

The Terras mentor watched his side take the lead through Pierre Joseph-Dubois, only to fall behind after goals from Darryl Duffy and Joe Jacobson.

The League One outfit fielded two different teams in either half and Hollins felt it was quite a workout for his charges.

He told This Is Weymouth: I don't think we'll get a tougher game than that in terms of two halves of football.

"But I was pleased we were still in there fighting and how we handled it against a side two divisions higher and one that reached the quarter-finals of the FA Cup last season."
