Verdict: The new recruits look promising with fans backing Darren Ferguson to challenge for promotion. Goals were lacking last season and much will depend on the partnership of Andy Williams and John Marquis. If Rovers can keep the squad fit, the height and youthful energy added to the squad should bode well in the quest for promotion.

Key man: Tommy Rowe. Will provide the creative spark we lacked last year.
