The home did have a chance to claw one back when they were awarded a penatly for a foul by the very dependable Charlie Tunnell. Jordan Mitchell who had not had a great amount to do during the game produced a fine save to deny any panic in the last 15 minutes for his side . As the game got stretch the Robins could and should have added to their total, but in the end a very pleasing afternoon in the Fens
