This is one for me that I was looking at to really show whether we really have turned the corner and are heading for better things. It won't be season defining but a win there will definitely put another marker down. Just hope Ironside and Close make it, which means we're likely to have a strong starting XI and bench.

Sadly, I saw both. 5-1 was the first on a Friday evening. We even scored first. The following year, 6-0. We weren't very good....BobG
Route on Saturday is straight-forward for anyone coming by train. From King’s Cross get the Victoria Line to Stockwell. Change at Stockwell on to the Northern Line, getting off at Tooting Broadway. A few decent boozers on Tooting Broadway. Walk 15-20 mins from Tooting Broadway to the ground. Should take around an hour from King’s Cross platform to their ground.
It is getting to the stage where London would be a good quize question, Just what country is it the capital of?
I disagree Campsall, they could all do with a good kicking!
I thought it was just a throw away joke but hey ho, what we really need is a win, where ever we play now that would be no joke and we might just be able to start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. Win this game and the replay at Accrington and I think we can all start to get a bit excited about the Rovers, and let the rest look after themselves.
There will be quite a gathering in London, this w/e, Cussie.Armistice & Palestine protest march?
