Rovers Team News to face Orient

Last updated : 08 September 2004 By Chris Barnes

Ian Atkins has a fully fit squad to choose from to face Leyton Orient as he looks to extend Rovers unbeaten run. Craig Disley and Aaron Lescott, may  make their debuts, providing they convince Atkins considers that they have built up the neccessary fitness levels through this weeks reserve game, although they will again have to make do with starting on the bench.


Ian Atkins has again to decide whether to stick with the 4-4-2 system of recent weeks or switch back to 3-5-2. John Anderson may be recalled in place of Craig Hinton if Atkins picks the latter formation. Ali Gibb is also pushing for a recall after recovering from a knock, so the Rovers boss must decide whether to recall Gibb in place of either Jamie Forrester or Lee Thorpe.
