About Bristol Rovers

Bristol Rovers began in September 1883, after a meeting at the Eastville Restaurant, under the name Black Arabs, a nod to the Arabs rugby team and the black shirts the players wore. They became Eastville Rovers a year later and Bristol Rovers by 1899, when they joined the Southern League. In 1920 they were among the clubs that formed the Football League's new Third Division.

Rovers left Eastville in 1986, shared Bath City's Twerton Park for a decade, and moved to the Memorial Stadium in 1996. They were third-tier champions in 1953 and 1990, winning promotion to the second tier each time. The Gas nickname comes from the gasworks beside Eastville, 'Goodnight, Irene' is the fans' anthem, and the Bristol derby with City is their main rivalry.

Founded: 1883
Ground: Memorial Stadium
Capacity: 12,500
