2007–2011[]
Rovers' first spell in League One lasted for just four years. After winning promotion from League Two via the playoffs in 2007 they had three mid-table finishes in their first three seasons in the division. The 2010–11 season saw them relegated back to the fourth flight after three managerial changes over the course of the campaign left the team down in 22nd position.
