Bristol Rovers striker Richard Walker has warned his team to toughen up if they are to challenge for a play-off place in League Two.

The Pirates let a two-goal lead slip against lowly Stockport at the weekend, drawing 2-2 after Walker's double had set them up for a seemingly comfortable victory.

He told the Evening Post: "We were cruising at 2-0, but instead of continuing to do the things that got us in that position, we ended up with our backs to the wall.

"We are a better team than that and should be finishing other sides off by scoring three or four. I can't explain why we don't.

"It's happened to us before, although I don't think anyone knows why. If we did, we'd put a stop to it because it's a habit we've got to try to get out of."
