Back-to-back wins have left Rovers only five points off six spot and six off third with the top eight of the division closely bunched together.

The Aston Villa loanee sees confidence is high in the Rovers camp following consecutive wins, with Saturday’s triumph at MK Dons coming courtesy of a goal from the 18-year-old.

“I think a couple of weeks back we were right in the mix and then we slipped up in a couple of games,” he said.

“If we keep this run going then we can definitely get back up the going.

“We’ve lost two games in the last few weeks but we’ve followed it up with two wins so everyone is buzzing.

“We just want to make it three wins now on Saturday.

“It’s a great confidence boost to have got these last two and when we get the three points on Saturday it’s only going to add to that.”

Ramsey was understandably pleased with his goal on Saturday - his third for the club - and particularly so having missed an earlier effort.

“I had another chance when one-on-one with the keeper and I chopped it inside when I should have set Devante [Cole] up,” he said.

“But then Jon Taylor did well down the right and pulled it back and I hit it with a first time finish. I was really pleased with it.”
