Rovers were enjoying almost all the possession as Cheltenham continued to place the emphasis on defence.

McCammon sent a downward header just wide on Mills' right wing cross in the 69th minute before Town made a substitution three minutes later with Armstrong coming on for Russell.

O'Driscoll played his final cards in the 74th minute sending on Heffernan and Guy for McCammon and Coppinger.

A minute later and Rovers were level when Price headed the ball down for Green to slam home a left foot shot from point blank range.

Higgs did well to save four minutes later after Green had set up Heffernan and Doncaster were desperately close to snatching the goal they needed in the 81st minute.

Price latched on to a defence splitting pass and hit a shot on the turn which struck the foot of the post and bounced to safety.

Cheltenham were forced to bring off goalscorer Gillespie who was injured in the 82nd minute and he was substituted by Connolly.

Rovers had all the pressure at this stage and it only seemed a matter of time before Cheltenham cracked.

But to the dismay of the Rovers fans the home side restored their lead against a run of play the in 85th minute.

Keogh crossed from the right at CONNOR fired home in a crowded goal mouth from close range.

It looked like the end for Doncaster but it needed a brilliant one handed save from Higgs to keep out a super header from Heffernan in the 86th minute as O'Driscoll's men refused to give up the fight.

Latest score Cheltenham 2 Rovers 1, Forest 3 Yeovil 2, Carlisle 1 Bournemouth 1
If the scores remain the same FOREST will be promoted
