Always been bigger than their local rivals in my opinion.

Always been bigger than their local rivals in my opinion.

Bristol Rovers formed in 1883 as the Black Arabs and elected to the Football League in 1920

In 1952/53 they were Division 3 (South) winners and in 1888/89 they won theGloucestershire Cup


Bristol City formed in 1894 as Bristol South End and changed their name to Bristol City on adopting professionalism three years later

In 1907 they finished runners-up in Football League Division One (their highest ever final position) and in 1909 they lost the FA Cup final to Manchester United, their only final to date


Bristol Rovers ertainly not bigger than their local rivals, as much as I'd like them to be - my grandad played for them. In reality Bristol City are actually not too dissimilar to Cardiff City and you can see where the rivalry would have started

Good away following

Never bothered to turn up at Ninian park in the 70's when we took thousands to Eastville.
