Paul Coutts looks ahead to pivotal Salford City clash and the role Bristol Rovers fans can play

Paul Coutts believes a win for Bristol Rovers against Salford City on Good Friday will eradicate the "disappointment" they felt following the weekend's draw at Tranmere Rovers.

The Gas came from behind to draw 1-1 against their promotion rivals at Prenton Park on Saturday, with a neat turn and finish from Elliot Anderson quickly cancelling out Kane Hemmings' second-half strike. A point on the road can rarely be a source for frustration, but Joey Barton's players left Merseyside with a sense of an opportunity missed, such was the control they exerted on the game.

Rovers dropped to sixth place in League Two, five points adrift of the automatic promotion places and two points clear of Salford in eighth, and Gas captain Coutts believes victory against the Ammies in front of what could be another sell-out crowd at the Mem would be the ideal tonic for their frustration.
