Chris Lines makes Bristol Rovers admission as he completes move to Bath City

Chris Lines admits Bristol Rovers’ close links with Bath City and his own childhood memories helped make his decision that Twerton Park was the best destination for the next stage of his career.

Lines, who made 357 appearances for Rovers over two spells, has been confirmed as a Bath City player for next season’s National League South after two years with Stevenage in League Two.

The 36-year-old admits he’s been naturally drawn back to the West Country, after three seasons of commuting from Bristol to Northampton and Stevenage, but also has been driven by that feeling of nostalgia when stepping foot inside the famous old ground.
