“I don’t take any notice,” he said.

“Personally, that’s nothing for me to get involved with.

“I’m just here to play football at the end of the day so I can’t be worrying about outside noise.

“I’ve heard about it, people have told me, and it’s nice to hear.

“But in the present I’m here to play games, to play football and hopefully I just keep performing well.

“But I’m here for the season so I’m just looking forward to that and hopefully just doing well here.”

John made his first league appearance for Rovers in 11 weeks after recovering from an ankle injury, scoring in Saturday’s 1-1 draw with MK Dons.
