    Just out of interest who do you think the best Rovers player is to have played for City, has to of played for Rovers before City. I can't think of to many from my era of watching the gas I would say Steve Phillips is the best former City player.

    Many people overlook Pete Aitken. The only player to captain BOTH teams,. Still doing great work at Rovers
    running the Community Department. Also one of the eight who saved City from extinction !!
    Also Peter Hooper....................

    Thinking back, I still cant believe, that Ray Cashley, Donnie Gillies & Trevor Jacobs went onto play for Rovers. The best exCity player to play for Rovers...........Johnny Watkins.

    Did n'tTony Ford go across to the blue side? He was a proper tough tackling full back,with hell of a shot on him.

    Terry Cooper, slight cheat because he went from City to Rovers and then back again via Doncaster.
    Managed Rovers before City though.
