WEYMOUTH boss John Hollins was pleased with his side's fighting spirit despite losing 2-1 against Bristol Rovers in a pre-season friendly tonight.
The Terras took the lead through Pierre Joseph-Dubois but goals from Darryl Duffy and Joe Jacobson were enough to secure victory for the League One outfit, who fielded two different teams in each half.
Hollins said: "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."
