Tony Mowbray’s side have since returned seven points from three matches, with their latest triumph coming in the form of a 4-0 thrashing of Peterborough United.

First half strikes from Harry Pickering, Ben Brereton Diaz and Darragh Lenihan, put the hosts into a commanding lead going into the break before Brereton Diaz netted a second to secure the three points.

Rovers remain just a point outside of the play-off positions, and will be hoping to capitalise on any points dropped from the four clubs narrowly ahead of them.

In what was a dominant display from start to finish, one player, out of a whole bunch who was excellent was right-back Ryan Nyambe.

The full-back was a constant menace going forward and was a real source of creativity when getting forward.

He also ensured that he fulfilled his defensive responsibilities, with Peterborough posing no threat whatsoever against Nyambe.

Nyambe has grown in influence each year since his 2015 debut and is enjoying a great start to the new campaign.
