https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/premier-league-arsenal-liverpool-manutd-30543751?utm_source=mirror_newsletter&utm_campaign=football_newsletter2&utm_medium=email New structure not as bad as I had feared. Rovers should be decently seeded given the average of the last 3 finishes count. A competition for all 26 Cat A Academies with an end of season 16 club knock out.

From video footage, he looks a big lad with an impressive turn of pace. I might be wrong but I have a recollection of him having injury troubles.

The objective is to give JDT nightmares before every team selection because he has 25 viable choices to select from. Not play FIFA 23. Sorry that was a bit snappy -what 41 degrees heat does! Agreed Dolan has to sign or move on. This will freak folks out but the January window could easily more important to Rovers than this one!

At some point every established pro footballer only had 400 to 500 minutes behind them. It seems from reports the side that came 4th in L1 was flattered by that 4-3 scoreline against a Rovers outfit of 3 established first team regulars and 8 plus subs aspirants. That sounds like a promising bonus to me especially as we hit the onion bag 4 times to add to the 4 times against the more senior of the two Austrian Bundeslga sides last Saturday and the two against Accy Stanley youngsters and triallists the week before. Stockport will be another good opportunity as will Wallsall in the League Cup eleven days later.

Been confirmed as number 1 by JDT- if he stays. A bigger offer has been received (not clear whether from Luton or someone else) but still only half what we would consider.

Shhhh!

No- Neither game.

According to rovers.co.uk website, this game hasn't kicked off yet. Adam Wharton back to full training on Monday. Niall Ennis light training on Monday. Vale and Sigurddson both long term muscle problems. Just hoping Sigurddson is like Van Hecke. Fans slagged Mowbray mercilessly for signing a total crock on loan and he only won player of the season.

Sounds like Barnsley were close to full L1 strength.

FT 4-3

4-3. Barnsley score on 90 minutes. Cole

Norwood again close to Barnsley hattrick

Multiple Rovers changes between all the goals

Norwood almost a hattrick hitting the bar and a brilliant Pears stop of the strike from the rebound

Playing at Brockhall?
