League One Results 30th October 2010 (Part 1)

Bournemouth 1-2 Colchester United
Bournemouth were unbeaten at home before this match while Colchester were unbeaten away and it was Colchester – who only recemtly lost their unbeaten home record – who came out on top.
Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe’s comments suggested he thought Bournemouth had got a point. It would be lovely if he was right but he’s really kind of not. The FA change the rules every year but if they’d changed that one, I’m sure I’d know about it.
Rhoys Wiggins played the full match for Bournemouth
Lee Beevers and Lloyd James were both on the bench for Colchester, with Lee making another late appearance as a substitute.

Bristol Rovers 1-1 Carlisle United
When Bristol Rovers defender Danny Coles handled the ball in the penalty area stoppage time, Carlisle thought they’d snatched a win. Luckily for Bristol Rovers, their goalkeeper saved the penalty and the points were shared.
Byron Anthony played the full match for Bristol Rovers with Eliot Richards and Ben Swallow on the bench.

Dagenham & Redbridge 1-1 Hartlepool United
If Dag & Red want to stay in League One, they really ought to be beating their relegation rivals at home. And they could so easily have won this one without a stoppage-time own goal. It was a day for own goals – Dag & Red’s 49th-minute opener was scored by a Hartlepool player.
Tony Roberts was in goal for Dag & Red.

Exeter City 2-4 Brentford
Exeter’s unbeaten home record came to an end when struggling Brentford (who are even now only two points above the relegation zone) managed an excellent win. It could have been even worse for Exeter – their goalkeeper Paul Jones (not to be confused with former Welsh international keeper Paul Jones) saved two penalties.
Richard Duffy played the full match with Rob Edwards on the bench. Daniel Nardiello’s hamstring didn’t allow him to take part.

Leyton Orient 2-1 Rochdale
Even after this win, Leyton Orient are only outside the relegation zone on goal difference but at least they’re out of it. Rochdale lost their third consecutive away game although they had their chances to grab a point.
Nicky Adams nearly opened the scoring for Rochdale but unfortunately his effort was saved. Nicky conceded the penalty, wrongly in the opinion of Rochdale manager Keith Hill. Matt Done came off the bench after 71 minutes.
