How do you see the season panning out?

I think we will be safe from relegation but finish below halfway.

How do you rate the season so far?

With only winning 1 out of 10 recently until the last few games, it certainly wasn’t going very well.

Any funny/unusual stories at Rovers?

We were playing Rushden & Diamonds at home on 9th April 2005. Their goalkeeper Scott Shearer collected a cross and lost his footing, throwing the ball into the net in the process, registering an own goal. We then signed him a couple of months later in the summer!
