Newcastle United to play Rovers in friendly?

**red bellied** · 30/01/2007, 12:45 PM

Heard this morning that Rovers are lined up to play Newcastle United next month. The Toon Army are out of the FA Cup so will have a free weekend. Could be some truth in this, the Farmer having played for them.

But I hear it is possible, other circumstances will dictate it
