Souey Issues Fans Plea

Last updated : 27 November 2003 By Neal McGaffin
Against Everton, Souness described the fans as "an extra player". And so with Rovers still in close proximity to the foot of the table, a win against the Londoners is vital.

Considering away trips to Birmingham and Arsenal are next on the agenda, a win were possible must be had.

Both Tugay and Garry Flitcroft have been cleared to make timely returns to the side after injury, but a repeat of the second half against Manchester United, and both wouldn't be needed.

None the less support is important and Souness knows it.


"On Saturday, I think the supporters have a role to play again, I hope we can re-create a similar atmosphere and acheive the same result."
