County’s first home game of the season kicked off at 5.30pm. Today it’s 12.30pm. Feels like we’re following a Premier League team all of a sudden with all these changes to the fixture list. You never know, this might be good practice! We’re top of League One and (bizarrely) signing players who made 27 appearances in the top flight last season. Welcome to County, Ollie Norwood!

We’re certainly a club on the up, and there’s a ton of optimism in Stockport ahead of today’s game, with Nick Lee, Waggie, Ian Brown, Dave Marchbank and Jonathan Baker all predicting a home win. Bristol Rovers are unbeaten themselves, though, without conceding a goal. Could be a tricky one.
