Rovers’ preparation for next season have been begun – with four pre-season friendlies announced.

Tony Mowbray’s squad will return from their close season break at the end of June and will once again head out to Austria for a week-long training camp.

They will then return for six friendlies, four of which have been announced, in the lead up to the season getting underway on August 4.

Two more fixtures will be announced in due course, with the current four games all taking place away from home.
