PAUL Ince today reassured Rovers supporters about his commitment to the club in the wake of media speculation linking him with the managerial vacancy at Newcastle.

The Rovers manager commented: "As I said at our pre-match Press Conference earlier today, I cannot control media speculation and nor do I normally choose to comment upon it.

"However, I feel I owe it to the club, the players and the supporters to say that I am very happy at Ewood Park. I am only a few weeks into the role and I am thoroughly enjoying the experience. My only focus is Rovers and getting on with the job."
