Add to that the fact that they've never had to get back into the league via the Conference play off. | |

True. Bristol city always remind me of deluded big time cardiff city - whereas 'the gas' always remind me of the good old swans. Good luck to Rovers for tomorrow. | |

Much prefer a City. Rovers are a horrid club who detest the Welsh. Comfortably my least favourite club after you know who. Hope it all goes wrong and they spend seasons in the lower ladder. I have said it many times that I have never felt so unwelcome visiting a club other than Cardiff. They have a crap ground, horrible supporters and the biggest bunch of Keystone Cops running the show that I have ever seen. [Post edited 16 May 2015 18:14]

I can't imagine city taking close to 30k for a conference play off. I believe they took 50k to millennium stadium for a final. | | | |

Bristol Rovers on 20:20 - May 16 with 4061 views | Swanzay | Living in north Bristol its grips my shite, were the feck have these 43000 fans come from? If these plastics had put more effort in, they would not be in this predicament. When I take my step son to football training there is only 1 kid who wears his Rovers top with pride, the rest at LP, MU or MC. With these 'small' clubs' as we once once were, maybe educating their sons and daughters to support their local club, as my dad did. It doesn't seem to happen in Bristol at the moment, they are all obsessed with LP, MU, MC, sadly. | | | |
Bristol Rovers on 20:25 - May 16 with 4048 views | perchrockjack | good last post. Rovers remind me of Wrexham shamefully in conference neverland. TOO MANY, thousands travel the extra hour to Liverpool and Manchester to see "their" team. Its sickening really and its been thus for many years even when Wrexham were doing well. | |

You are right - the city is well big enough to have a Premier League team. I lived in Bristol for 50 years before I moved over here but I still love you Perchy regardless what you say! | | | |
