Title: Retro Rovers Video - Bristol City v Rovers 1983
Post by: RM452 on December 06, 2016, 08:17:04 pm

Found this video from the 1983-84 promotion season, another grainy, blurred clip from the past. We finished runners up to York City that year in Division 4 and this was an excellent win against a useful Bristol City team.

Rovers:  1.Boyd  2.Russell  3.Harle  4.I Snodin  5.Lister  6.Humphries  7.Miller  8.Moss  9.Douglas  10.Kowalski  11.G Snodin.

Me too, Bob. I remember we won but I don't remember the goals. Great to see if again.

I was there that day, bus broke down about 30 miles from the ground ( Mayfield Tours ) and we missed the first 25 minutes or so . When we arrived a few naughty boys from Bristol came out of the ground,via the turnstiles and chased us down the street to our entrance. The bus was parked right next to the gate at full time and we were back on the bus before the players had left the pitch at full time.
