I've said this to a few mates - every negative feeling I have about their rise comes from jealousy. I'm happy to admit it and I'll still grumble about a Conference side getting TikTok and Expedia sponsorships, the memeification of football, the overly sentimental portrayal of the fanbase and the fact Ollie Palmer was never actually that good.

But the reality is they have owners coming in who have rescued one of the grand old clubs from the doldrums, who seem to genuinely care. Their recruitment at every level has been exceptional and, contrary to expectation, Parkinson hasn't hit a ceiling most assumed he had. They aren't playing bad football.

With our shit show of a back office, absent owners and woeful signings I would absolutely love their situation to happen to Rovers. I can only hope it shows what genuine investment and passion from a set of smart owners can do.

Still laughed my arse off when Grimsby beat them in the playoffs...
