And change one thing that happened at Rovers, what would it be? It could be a transfer, result, appointment, release, off the field decision, anything at all to do with the club.

Simple for me. Stuck with DC during his first managerial wobble.

Before my time, but get in backup for Geoff Bradford. Could we have made it to the First Division in the 50s?
During my time following Rovers, that 'nearly season' under Ollie or Kingswood Borough Council granting planning for the Carsons Road plan in 1990.

Can’t decide. It’s either not selling Eastville or not buying a cremated sausage roll at the last game. Neither turned out well.

Bobby Gould’s “offside” goal v Ipswich 1978. Would have been 3-1 up and gone on to beat Millwall and WBA to meet Arsenal at Wembley. Not saying we would have won that mind ….

Never sell eastville,what a ground we could have had there. First thing I thought of. All these suggestions are great though For me I think I should have stayed at home in August 1969 and saved myself 52 years of desperate hope, despair and misery which I fear will continue for the remainder of my lifetime

Put the call into Walsall and DC when Tisdale left. The fit was perfect and it would have united the club as supporters returned.
JB isn't fit to lace his boots.

Pity could not hang on to our one nil lead at Leeds United in front of 49000 fans in the penultimate match of the 1955/56 season to win that second division match and probably gain promotion to the too flight.

So many 'if only's' but has to be the sale of EASTVILLE back in the 1940's, when you look at the site now and visualise what could have been.................

Just some info for balance about Eastville -
We actually only owned Eastville for 19 years - 1921-1940.
Played our first game there in 1897 and last game 1986.
So a total of 70 years as tenants.
We've owned the Memorial for longer.
