Excellent. That SHOULD see them safe given the number of teams below them.

As Spurs still have to play West Ham, and only 2 teams get relegated, Rovers are safe with a win today

Considering they needed to get a result, that was a really professional performance. Well played 21's everyone played a part 

Full time??

Really happy with the win and that it ensures our status. Hopefully Sam Burns gets fixed up soon and goes on to have a great career.

We could feasibly see a first team next season set up as:

                          GK

        Carter   Phillips  Wharton

JRC                                           Batty

         Travis  Garrett  Wharton

                Vale     Leonard

I wouldn't expect it to do much, but it is impressive from an academy set up to produce a reasonably capable Championship team. And that's leaving out Buckley.

Surely Buckley goes in. 

                    Eastham

        Carter   Phillips  Wharton

JRC                                           Batty

         Travis  Garrett  Wharton

                     Buckley

                    Leonard

Apart from GK, LB and CF they are all pretty established which is incredible really.

Wish we could turn up a top academy striker from somewhere.

When you put it that way, that is a pretty incredible line up given it is from a single academy.

Wouldn't be against playing that side in the early cup rounds, as 4 are regular starters, the remaining are solid squad players, and only 3 are untested.

Excellent result!

I must admit I was crapping it that Leonard would get injured today leaving the 1st team with literally no striker for the last 2 games. Now let's give him more than a 10 min cameo & see if he can carry on his excellent form for the U21s.

Strange that lad never seems to have been given a sniff of a chance. Surely, he’s better that what we have at the moment, after all he is a centre forward.

Not only that, his game is made for the high press. Some team is going to pick up a bargain.

I had him above Jack Vale and Harry Leonard but he has never been give sniff with the first team. He isn't dissimilar to Adam Armstrong in physique and has similar attributes.
