About rachrover2012

First Game

Rovers v Coventry 92-93 season, Rovers lost 5-2 but for some reason I was instantly hooked on BRFC

Best Game

Hard one to choose this, the one that stands out is the last Burnley away game (2009-2010 season) when we played them in the prem and due to congestion in the concourse, the Rovers fans were allowed to drink and smoke in their seats much to the anger of the Burnley fans :)

Worst Game

As a Rovers fan, I've been to many bad games so selecting one is difficult, the 2006-2007 FA cup semi against Chelsea was upsetting, we got beat 2-1 at Old Trafford having knocked both Arsenal and City out previously, a narrow defeat against Chelsea was hard to take :(
The home game against Wigan last season (2011-2012) when we got relegated was another bad one, lots of tears, one I'd definitely rather forget.

I'm not sure why I love Craven Cottage so much as the away section doesn't have a very good viewpoint but the ground itself is dead old...a proper old skool ground and I love the concourse being outdoors and right on the side of the Thames...good ground.

Other than that, the Camp Nou was pretty spectacular!

I don't know why I hate Villa Park so much but I just do, its grim and desolate, there are no corners on the concourse and for a certain time there was no beer served, can't remember if thats changed now. Also, the seats are so small and crammed in and Rovers had the misfortune of playing Villa in both cups H & A for 2 seasons running, I got sick of the sight of the damn place.
