Bristol Rovers assumed control of their own destiny again with a perfect Bank Holiday weekend. Two huge ties, two huge results and The Gas area dreaming once again.
It was a massive four days for the Gas. The Bank Holiday weekend was billed as one could define our season, with two ties against fellow promotion contenders. Two wins could put the unthinkable back in reach, but any loss could spell the end for our automatic promotion hopes. The stakes are so high at this time of the season and this is where we really learn about our team when playing under such immense pressure.
Another sell-out crowd packed The Mem in glorious April sunshine. There are few better backdrops for a football game than stunning weather and 10,000 Gasheads singing “Goodnight Irene” from first to last. What an atmosphere too.
