Agree, Annis. Watched it on BT Sport. The Gas won on penalties. Really enjoyed the game. Decent support by both sets of fans, but especially the Gasheads. Record conference final attendance, 47k. Both Bristol clubs have had a successful day out at Wembley this season. Always had a soft spot for the Gas, ever since those away games at Eastville.

There is a whole world of football outside the Premier League.

Congrats to The Rovers, who kept their heads in the Penalty Shootout! :thumbup:

My Grandfather (Bristol born) was a Rovers player after the war and paid the price, as he broke his hip and had to have his leg shortened as a result (I suppose he could have gone to Yeovil! LOL :laughing6: )

Great to see a 'traditional' club making back at the first attempt and it has been a good year for the two Bristol clubs. Looking forward to renewing old (far older than the Swans thing) rivalries :thumbup:

Watched Michael Chopra score as Alloa win second leg 3-0 to stay up with a 4-3 aggregate win!

He had great things to say about his part time colleagues, very nice to hear.
