JON Sharp has challenged Featherstone's players to build on the stunning victory over Celtic by toppling leaders Salford on Sunday.
Third-place Celtic came a cropper at the Chris Moyles Stadium last weekend and coach Sharp wants Rovers to repeat the feat against Co-operative National League One's top dogs, a game that kicks-off at 5pm.

's 42-30 victory, which coach Sharp insists should not be seen as a surprise: "I want the players to go out expecting to win - it's a greater problem keeping your players' feet on the floor than trying to get them off the canvas," he said.
"They should take a lot from the performance - it was no fluke. The things we did and the tries we scored came off things we had practised all week.
"And the defence we executed near our own try-line had also been practised. They played the game-plan to perfection. That should give us confidence to go into what will be a really tough game against Salford.
"The challenge is backing-up. It was a big emotional day but we played smart, we executed well and were very focused - rather than being over-emotional and too pumped-up.
"We can head into Sunday full of confidence. There are things we didn't do well but we'll address them this week."
The ex-Giants boss, on board until the end of the season, believes keeping things simple is the key for the closing weeks of the campaign.
"There's so many things I could get into them but with only six games left it's about a quick fix. My remit is to give the players a bit of focus, simplifying the game-plan and bringing a bit of professionalism into the joint.
"We're still teaching fundamentals and the basics of the game - if you can do that well you're not going to be far away."
The supporters club has seats available for the trip to Sheffield a week on Friday (leaving the ground at 6.15pm). Ring 01924-829763/822426 for details or call at the portable cabin on Sunday.
