Elliott Jackson and Ryan Hildred discuss what the final hours could look like on the latest episode of Arte et Labore.

A 2-1 home defeat to Queens Park Rangers and their exit from the Carabao Cup underlined the need for reinforcements. Tony Mowbray was without nine first-team players at the weekend.

That cost Rovers as they feel to their first Championship reverse. The performance was good for an hour before fatigue kicked in.

The relentless schedule doesn't ease, with trips to Lincoln City and Preston North End to follow this week. But all eyes for the next two days will be on the potential incomings.
