THE Gas (rovers for the unitiated) play at the Memorial Ground.

Dont know about TV coverage,but be nice if it was. I went to the old Wembly when Rovers played Tranmere in a playoff final....lost!!,but a great day out.So I guess Bristol will be empting on Saturday and taking the chance to see the NEW WEMBLY,...even a few City fans..although they will be satisfied with their promotion to the Championship next year.

Bristol Rovers (The Gas).

The original ground at Eastville was alongside the Gasworks,with the wind in the right direction the smell was strong.'They had a fire in the old stand(started by Bristol City fans,who needed police protection for a while...so had to move out...went to share Bath City ground and about 5 years later because the Bristol Rugby club were bankrupt Rovers bought their ground at Patchway for a song...so now they play at the Memorial Ground.

Well....you did ask!!
