After a week off last week, Rovers were back in league action today taking on last season’s Devon Cup winners, Harbertonford in a thrilling encounter at The Fortress.

Ford were bit of a bogey team for Rovers last year where we failed to get the win in any of our encounters against them in our double winning season 😬 so the lads were proper keen to change that on the first time of asking against them this season.

Rovers took the lead half way through the first half courtesy of goal machine Ash O’Neill 😮‍💨 assisted nicely by Dan Jones who skinned a ford defender, held off another and laid off to Tash👍🏼

Ford equalised not too long after with a nice goal from distance.

Rovers went back ahead near the end of the first half thanks to a composed penalty from Dan Jones, sending the keeper the wrong way👏🏼 first goal scorer Ash won the penalty and returned the favour for Jones who provided him with the 1st goal.

Plenty of changes in the 2nd half, freshening up and ensuring we could stay disciplined and keep it tight ❌ the lads really dug in but never really looked like conceding anyway. Highlight of the 2nd half was Dan Jones picking the ball up from his own half, running the entire length but not shooting, missing a sitter. Believe it or not but the Ford Lino put his flag up even when Jones was in his own half 🥴

Full Time: Hooe Rovers 2 Harbertonford 1 💙

Man of the match: Tom Hunt - dominant performance in the centre of the park, spraying passes everywhere and showing his composure on the ball at all times💪🏼

Donkey: Aaron Hicks - sinbin from Hicks grants him the award this week. Given for his mouth to the ref after a foul was given, Hicks put a rovers in a sticky position having to play with 10 men for 10 mins👀 however we can all understand his frustration as it was never a foul!

2 wins from 2 in the league for rovers💙 next up, Billacombe!

Our 10-1 victory was featured on Track Radio, and they caught up with Danny Brynmor Jones to get his post-match thoughts on the performance, the result and the lads’ start to the season.

Our 2026/2027 P&D Sunday Premier Division title defence got underway today against Porto Plymouth Football Club, with the rovers running rampant in a 10-1 thrashing😮‍💨

Rovers started well and looked to take an immediate lead but an open goal miss and hitting the woodwork twice ensured the score stayed at 0-0🙄 we were confident however that when the first goal went in, several more would follow. Lots of goals to report on today so apologies to those involved if not all completely correct 🤣

First goal was scored by Danny Jones who calmly took the ball around the onrushing keeper and knocked it home after a typical Ben Rhodes over the top through ball set Jonesy up wonderfully 🫡

First goal scorer Jonesy turned provider for the 2nd, squaring the ball nicely into Ash O’Neill feet who tapped in with ease👏🏼

Jonesy picked up his 2nd of the game with our 3rd goal, demonstrating great composure to keep his shot down which nestled into the bottom corner after a nice drilled assist by Mitchell Williams 👍🏼

Provider Ben Rhodes got on the scoresheet for our 4th goal after a nice assist from Tom Hunt👌🏼

Our 5th goal was scored by Jonesy to secure his hatrick, burying a penalty into the bottom corner. Penalty was fantastically won by Luke Lawson who drove at the defender and tempted a foul💪🏼

Provider Tom Hunt also got on the scoresheet with our 6th goal of the game, beautifully placing the ball top bins after a nice cut back from Brogan Holmes 🔥

Ash got himself another goal after super Rodney Bell whipped in a great ball where Ash was able to demonstrate his clinical nature and get another across the line 🙌🏼

8th goal came courtesy of Luke Lawson, rewarded for his tireless running in behind all game with a nicely taken goal. Alfie Reilly launched one of his usual insanely accurate long balls which laws latched onto and knocked past the keeper 🤝

Herbie Bell got the 9th of the game, finishing emphatically with a great header leaving the keeper no chance. Holmesy whipped in an inch perfect cross for Herb to get on the end of🥶

Our 10th and final goal was scored again by Herb, finishing off a bit of a goal mouth scramble with Brogan Holmes demonstrating his unselfish behaviour not to get in the way of Herb’s shot or to tap it in himself🤣

Man of the Match: Danny Jones ⭐️ a first half hatrick and an assist as well, electric performance from Jones which really kickstarted the rest of the team performance 👏🏼

Donkey: Ash O’Neill 🫏 2 open goals missed today for Ash😳 it looked harder to miss!! We will blame the infamous Jenny bobble, especially with the pitch being as hard as it is👀 didn’t stop him scoring 2 on the day anyway!

Overall, a fantastic first game of the season. No game for us next week but we are back in action at the fortress once again when we host Harbertonford on September 6th💙

Match Day 1️⃣

Away to reigning league and cup champions Hooe Rovers Football Club let’s see what this new squad can achieve we couldn’t have asked for a tougher start to the season 💙🩷

19/08/2026

Everyone at Hooe Rovers Football Club is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Ash White.

We had the privilege of sharing the pitch with Ash on a number of occasions, and he was always a hugely competitive player who brought plenty of passion and character to the game.

Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with everyone close to Ash at this incredibly difficult time.

Rest in peace, Ash. 💙⚽

We faced The Billacombe FC 1sts today in another pre-season friendly, coming away with a convincing 5–1 victory.

Goals from Ash x3, Danny and Rodney ⚽️

Another valuable run-out and, more importantly, more minutes in the legs for the lads, as we build to the season opener against Porto Plymouth Football Club next weekend.

Plenty of positives to take from another good team performance. 💙

Cheers to Hooe Rovers Football Club for a good game of football in the heat, we wish you all the best this season and hope to meet again.
Huge credit to them shown real quality and deserved the win.
We take the positives and there were many despite the score line, nice to get some new faces on the pitch and players back from injury.
Hopefully next game the manager can have a full bench in our last preseason game before the season starts.
