    Rovers make best start to season under Trollope

    Jo Kuffour drilled in a last-minute winner to keep Bristol Rovers flying high near the top of League One as they overcame struggling Oldham 1-0. The chance was created by substitute Andy Williams, who teed up Kuffour 10 yards out and saw the striker beat Dean Brill with a confident right-footed finish. Defences had dominated until then, with Rovers creating what few chances there were. Mark Wright sliced wide from the best of them after 13 minutes. Oldham's best opportunity fell to Nick Blackman 13 minutes from time, but he shot straight at Mikkel Andersen from 10 yards. Latics goalkeeper Brill also made good saves from Stuart Campbell and substitute David Pipe. Reuben Hazell was a rock at the back for the visitors and was unlucky to finish on the losing side. It is now five wins from seven games for Rovers, their best start under coach Paul Trollope.
