We really want to avoid postponements since the catch-up at the end of the season could be horrendous. It's the luck of the draw in respect of Covid suspensions but thank God we have a more resilient pitch than last season.
Yes, I think all three home games this week would have been called off last season.

Ditto. No place for Corey on the bench (is he off or injured?) and 3 defenders in a home game seems puzzling, though Khan can be pushed forward into a midfield role if needed.

Maybe these old boys are fitter than we think! At least its more gelling for the team. Scotty's 250th game for Rovers. Well done Scotty!

OS shows a 4-5-1 formation for us against their 4-4-2. I can't imagine that at home against Harrogate. I think it will be 4-3-3 as before.

Wow, that new guy sounds just like Wayne Rooney. Let's hope he plays like him too!

Didn’t realise Harrogate had such a good away record. 6 wins from 7

Troubling start, the visitors looking the better so far and Rovers giving the ball away in dangerous places.

The visitors take the lead which arguably they deserve. Think they have targeted Khan who has been neat and tidy but struggling to stop the winger who scored.

We look a bit predictable at the moment and slow.

Vaughan’s penalty makes it 1-1 after a soft foul on Manny.

Never a penalty in a million years but 1-1 Vaughany.

I think because we made a big claim for handball which he didn’t give a second later manny hitting the deck was all that was needed:

hopefully we sort ourselves out now
