Rovers made the decision last summer to use additional funds to carry a large squad this season over having a smaller squad of higher quality players (not saying we don't have some very good players of course).

I've been unsure all season whether this was the right call or not. But....

....9 games unbeaten towards the back end of a busy season.

....8 points from 4 games (inc vs 3 of the top 10) in 9 days winning the last two of those 3-0.

Suggests the club got this right.

Trying not to get ahead of myself but let's face it: We are going up!  :scarf:

Sure some know it all on here said at the start of the season that’s how it would pan out. Can’t remember who that was though….
