ONE interested spectator at Saturday's match at Gigg Lane is expected to be former Oxford United manager Ian Atkins.
Atkins, who was rumoured to be a target of former Shakers' chairman Albert Doweck earlier in the season, was suspended by U's chairman Firoz Kassam recently, after allegedly agreeing to join Rovers at the end of the season.
Atkins could take control at the Memorial Ground as early as next Monday morning, but in the meantime caretaker bosses Russell Osman and Kevan Broadhurst will be in charge for Saturday's game.
