Joey Barton has revealed Bristol Rovers have honed "aggressive" tactics on the training ground this week, should the Gas need to produce a goal rush to realise their promotion dreams. But the manager insists his team will take nothing for granted against already-relegated Scunthorpe United on the final day of the League Two season on Saturday.
Rovers are fourth in the standings ahead of their 46th and final game, level on points with Northampton Town who occupy the last automatic promotion place. Victory will be enough for the Gas to overthrow the Cobblers if Jon Brady's side drop points at Barrow, but it will come down to goal difference if both sides win. Mansfield Town, Port Vale and Swindon Town could also steal in if both drop points.
Northampton have a five-goal advantage, but Rovers have scored more, meaning Barton's blues could sneak into the top three in the most remarkable fashion if both win but they outgun the Cobblers by five on Saturday.
