Why don’t Rovers cancel their academy or reserve games at short notice as they have in the past, and use players to fulfil first team fixtures. You yourself said something previously about their academy Derby cancellation , something about bussing, I believe. FC could promote players if necessary, cap permitting but Rover’s academy and reserve grades are dire as per Derby results. How can Rovers afford to bring 5? players in on short loans and stay within cap, surely their wages count or are they playing for nowt.
I am not interested in what HKRs coach does or doesnt do but he is right to protect his first team from potential injury before the C/C final by not playing them if it doesnt break any rules.
Can you imagine if he played his first team against Wigan and had to contend with a couple of injuries and a couple of HIAs to key players so he ends up missing players for what is their biggest game in years.
Say what you like about HKR but they have been very proactive in the transfer and loan market and plugged gaps when necessary like with Schneider.
Its galling for us that KR are at Wembley and are doing better than us in the league but you and others on here should get over it as the criticism of their recent short term loans on here is nothing more than hatred and jealousy for a local rival team that have risen above us this season.
Cant see any other S/L team or supporters reacting the way some on here are to Rovers playing a reserve team including three short term loanees
