RICHARD Brown's second half brace sentenced Rovers to a disastrous reversal at Paget on Saturday, and it was no more than they deserved for a lacklustre performance.
Rovers took the lead after eight minutes. Hughes latching on to Xiourouppa's through ball and hitting a shot under the body of Paget 'keeper Matt Harris into the back of the net.
But Brown headed home a free-kick in first-half stoppage time and drilled home the winner on 58 minutes.
Rovers: McGettrick 6, Ball 6, Hughes 6 (Nicholls 73), Townsend 7, Frost 8, Creighton 7 (McFarlane 69), Bridgewater 7, Yates 6, Xiourouppa 7, Banner 7, Beckett 6.
Star man: Steve Frost.
Attendance: 459.
