So it’s goodbye League One, we’ll be back, at some point anyway. Was trying to think of some of the best moments of our stay in League One in terms of matches since 2016/17.
A few moments stand out for me:
Our 6-0 win away at Northampton, what a game that was, the most emphatic Rovers win since we thrashed Alfreton 7-0 at home in non league. Ellis Harrison was immense that day.
Ipswich 1-2 Bristol Rovers. Obviously the events after this marred the occasion, however we were at the zenith of Coughlan ball at this point, near the top of the table. To grab a win at a place like Portman Road was huge.
Bristol Rovers 4-2 Southend. My personal favourite home game since we got promoted to League One, we were dreadful for the first 35 minutes, culminating in us trailing 2-0 at the break. Came out the second half a different team and in the second 45 minutes of football romped home to a 4-2 win.
Bristol Rovers 3-4 Millwall. Ok, we lost this one, but I remember it as a really entertaining game of football, packed to the rafters mem with a great atmosphere and a warm, sunny day. Got to applaud the players after for a competitive, hard fought first season back in the third tier too.
Special mentions to the 3-3 MK away draw, 4-1 Cov Boxing Day win and 5-0 Northampton home victory.
Sorry if I’ve missed something obvious
What’s everyone’s best moments?
