Ismael gone, transfer window assessments and Rovers out the drop zone

from Arte et Labore · host Lancashire Telegraph

Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred discuss a big week at Rovers. Valerien Ismael is gone, who comes next? They run through the candidates and their prefered choices and pick out where things went wrong for the Frenchman and whether he was entirely to blame. There were no fresh signings on deadline day meaning Rovers didn't sign the striker they wanted. Have they got enough to get them over the line and avoid relegation? A 1-0 win over the Owls on Tuesday night lifted them out of the relegation zone on goal difference. They travel to Norwich City next up, who have been in excellent form.
