Rovers in full control won 2-1. Liverpool manager says it was the worst performance of the season so we must have done something well Gave away a sloppy goal 10 min before the end. Keeper came flappin

Chaddy, it is impossible to defend the kick-off time for the Burnley game.  It's another kick in the teeth for supporters.  I can attend but friends who work can't attend.  If I had been working I wou

I've seen both on several occasions.  For me Wharton reminds me a bit of Tom Cairney. Box-to-box midfielder who can control a game with his classy passing. Left footed and looks like he has all t

Markanday by all accounts was outstanding for Chesterfield, but in League 2, I would genuinely expect him to be in the divisional team of the season without breaking a sweat

U18s are 3-1 up at half time.  No updates on Rovers academy twitter.  Rangers to have one, but  they have no idea who the Rovers players are by the looks of things

The scoreline doesn't really reflect the game and in truth there is a case for making Jordan Eastham the man of the match as he made several excellent saves. We were clinical in our finishing though which was the most pleasing aspect of the game. Iannis Hagi looked a class act and I asked one of the Rangers backroom staff why he wasn't in the first team. He told me that there was a fall out with the manager and also a rumour that playing one more game entitles him to a hefty pay increase. He is the type of creative player I would like to see here but Rangers would want a decent few for him. It might be worth a cheeky loan deal 😄😄.

Eastham played?  I thought it was an U18 game

What team did Rovers put out?

It was a friendly and the fact it was listed on the under 18's fixtures was a misnomer I think we Rangers had a few older players too. There were no team sheets but from memory Eastham, Bell, Davies, Litherland, Strich, Boggan, Saadi, Biniek, Shorrocks, Edmondson were either started or came on.

How’s Edmonson doing? He looked a good player from his brief cameo against Harrogate in the cup (If I’m thinking  of the right player - left footed CM)

The Edmondson who played yesterday is Stephen, the younger brother James who debuted at Harrogate. James is, I understand is still coming back from a long term injury.

They are both midfielders. Hopefully we have another pair of brothers coming through but I'm not sure how local they are. Wiki mentions American descent through a grandparent.

Has Mafoumbi played for the U21s yet? How has he looked?

He has - apparently he's looked bright.

He's training with the first team if the video they've just released on Twitter is anything to go by (unless we have another black lad that can speak French - 'cos someone walked out of the changing rooms deep in conversation with Gueye).

Tom Atcheson called up for Northern Ireland U21s, (he is still only 17)

Bold claim time - Barring injuries (to either himself or other Rovers players necessitating that he is brought back as cover), I think that there is every chance that he goes on loan to a League club in the second half of the season and gets a call up to the full Northern Ireland squad by the end of the season.
