Rooney backs Town for League Two promotion push

The 23-year-old, who is currently out of contract, said: “I think it’s actually an easier task to get out of League Two.

“I don’t want to jinx it, but I see York and Burton got into the play-offs.

“Obviously it doesn’t just go on size of clubs, but the group of players here already would compete without a shadow of a doubt, let alone when we bring a couple of additions in.

“I’d be certainly recommending a few people have few quid on us next year.”
Rooney also felt that with John Still at the helm, himself a League Two promotion winner at former club Dagenham & Redbridge, will be a huge positive for Town’s chances.
