Here we go then. I doubt there are many clubs at this level where there is a real feeling of optimism around the place. The 2nd half of last season saw rovers in great form overall, just falling at the last hurdle. Add to that the signings, on paper at least, are very good at this level (Cook, C Jennings), plus the likes of Stephenson bring pace that was missing last season. All in all I would say most supporters I know, plus GB and MP, are feeling very positive.
Bromley finished 14th last season and as far as I know, have kept their top scorer Emmanuel who got 20 in the league plus ex rover Ben Chorley.
As for the rovers line up, I'm expecting a 4-5-1 with Norwood played out wide. Can't see GB going with 2 up front given our away form last season. I'm guessing the team will be something like:
Davies
Vaughan McNulty Ihikwe Ridehalgh
Mekki, Harris, Jenno, Connor J, Norwood
Cook
This leaves out Jeff Hughes plus the likes of Kirby who had a good pre season and with Stephenson too, GB has real options. Lets hope he knows what to do with them.
Prediction: 2-0 win for rovers ahead of 2 tough home games next week.
