Rovers pulled off the bottom spot of League One last weekend with a 2-0 derby win over Scunthorpe, and could climb out of the relegation zone if they beat Barnsley at Oakwell on Saturday.

Rovers beay City 3-0 on penalties in midweek after the two teams were deadlocked at 1-1 after 120 minutes at Belle Vue, and Penney believes it can prove a catalyst for an improvement in form.

He said: "We've got a lot to do in the League, but this will give the players bags of confidence to push on.

"Manchester City showed us a lot of respect by playing their strongest side. They wanted to win this competition.

"We know we have no chance of doing that but we will enjoy the moment anyway."
