Tosin Adarabioyo says hard work is the only secret behind Rovers’ turnaround in form.

Rovers have picked up 16 points from the last 18 available to move within one point of the top six, with Adarabioyo’s performances playing a key part in the unbeaten run.

It is four consecutive Ewood wins for Tony Mowbray’s side, who host Wigan Athletic under the lights on Monday, with optimism building heading in to 2020.

Adarabioyo has now started 14 times for Rovers, including each of the last 12, after an injury-hit start to life at Rovers since joining on loan from Manchester City.

The last six have seen him strike up a good understanding with Darragh Lenihan, with three clean sheets in their last five matches, to climb to ninth in the table.

The 22-year-old felt the win over Sheffield Wednesday on November 2 was something of a turning point, but feels everyone has played their part in the unbeaten run, not least after Mowbray made six changes for the win at Bristol City last weekend.

“It’s very positive camp after the recent results that we’ve picked up,” the defender told the club website.

“We’re a lot closer to where we want to be, everyone is in a much better mood and we’re more positive that we can achieve what we want to achieve.

“I can’t recall a specific turning point, but everyone’s together now and looking forward to the rest of the season.

“Maybe the win against Sheffield Wednesday was one of the turning points.

“There’s no secret to our form. Everyone’s just done their job and we’re performing very well at the moment.

“The guys at the top of the pitch are doing their job and the defenders are doing ours. The first thing we need to do is get clean sheets.”
