Attendance record in clubs sights If you haven’t yet purchased your ticket for Sunday’s Promotion Final between Bristol Rovers and Grimsby Town, there’s still time for you to do so and be part of a record crowd. The current record for Vanarama Conference Promotion Final was set in when Oxford United played York City in front of 42,669 fans. As of last night, ticket sales for Sunday’s game had reached 42,557, so the record is well within reach. We understand that more than 24,000 of those tickets have been snapped up by Rovers fans and we would like to think we can substantially increase that total before 2.00pm on Sunday. If you have yet to purchase your ticket then log on to www.seetickets.com/go/bristolrovers or phone 0844 858 6753 to make sure you are part of a record crowd. Tickets ordered today will be sent out by registered post, and if ordered tomorrow they will be sent first class post. Tickets ordered from Friday onwards can be collected from Wembley Stadium (west side) up to, and including, Sunday. If you are travelling, then why not call into Pirate Leisure at the Memorial Stadium to see our range of Promotion Final souvenirs and leisurewear items. Thank you for all of your support so far; let’s make Sunday a day to remember!

Anyone driving up, be aware of speed cameras on A40, first one at Northolt Airport 50 MPH!!! If going by train, another option maybe to leave Paddington via the Grand Union Canal exit, walk right over Bishops Bridge Road & catch a 18 Bus from outside Travis Perkins (Buses don't take cash, so you'll need an Oyster Card, or Travelcard)
