Savage has had very good reviews from fans of Macclesfield & Forest Green. Had both of those playing some very nice football... but, both of those teams are/were one of the the financial heavyweights in their respective divisions, so it remains to be seen if Savage can be successful when he is coaching one of the paupers in any given division. I also don't think he would put up with Venkys/Pasha/Rudy etc for a second

I missed this one Zak Gilsenan has been on loan at Buxton in the National League North to hopefully regain fitness, so far has 2 goals in 3 games

Match report from U17s semi final win team Rovers put out is below (those in bold are from our U16s) Holt Pitt Decandia McIlroy Low Vare Ball Higgins Lister McCoy Joseph Subs - Wolsoncroft, Nosegbe, Walls, Flynn, Clanford I would like to highlight that West Brom had a wonderfully named player on the scoresheet, Justin Seven-Seven

Chris Sutton has his say on Robbie Savage

Even stranger, Man Utd haven't yet written a word about it on their site or socials It makes you wonder if it is at Man Utds request that they have not been named given they haven't yet announced it? Its all very cloak & dagger, which seems very strange for the transfer of a youth team keeper

Now confirmed by Rovers https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2026/february/03/sol-makes-premier-league-move/

last season, they didn't make an announcement for a few days, but then posted something on the website If they do similar, we should hear Friday or Saturday this week

They had to submit the 25 man squad last night "Clubs must send in their final 25-man list to the EFL by 7pm on February 3rd. That can't be altered unless a team has vacant places, in which case free agents can be added." If they filled that then any free agents would have to be U21, which would make this your list to pick from (some of the 21 year olds may be unavailable depending upon when their birthdays fall)

And yet for most of the season, they have been playing Kahn Mental!

History repeats itself. Forshaw is a good option to bring on to close out games for 20 minutes or so.. His body is not capable of playing much longer than that

yep, pretty sure both the U21s & U18s have not played a back 3 at all this season

Eligibility for age groups depends on the age they were on 1st Jan. Both were 17 or under on 1st Jan Joseph turns 18 in the summer Higgins turned 17 last month Haven't seen the team, just the goal scorers, Tyjon would also have been eligible, turns 18 in March. Not sure if he played

I haven't seen anything about Stritch or Honor leaving, & cannot see anything on Rovers website, or online generally Do you have a link?

Toth Miller O'Riordan Cashin Alebiosu Baradji/Mori Tronstad Cantwell Pickering Jorgensen Ohashi Gudjohnsen to come off the bench Pickering not ideal as a wing back, but we also have no wingers to play 4-2-3-1 & would prefer to have 2 up top

Thankfully he has seen that Jorgenson is not a winger What remains to be seen is if Jorgenson can play as a lone striker? I have my doubts, think that like Gudjohnsen he needs a strike partner
