Harry Anderson should be in contention to make his first Bristol Rovers appearance since the end of October after travelling and training with the first-team squad before the League One draw at Bolton Wanderers.
Versatile winger Anderson has been out with a foot injury since the 1-1 draw at Sheffield Wednesday six weeks ago, and although he’s been in and out of the starting XI remains a key player for Joey Barton, not just because he can cover multiple positions, but his role as a true team player and being able to execute a game plan.
Barton was particularly irked by Rovers’ application in the final 10 minutes at the University of Bolton Stadium on Friday night, signalling out midfielder Luke McCormick for criticism, and while Anderson may not start against Port Vale at the Mem this Saturday, will still be an important player to have off the bench to either change the game or close a match out.
