Be sure to tell all those Rovers friends and family you know So, they haven't been above us since the Second Millennium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Homer Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 So, according to the Post, 28th October 2000 is the date that City overtook Rovers in the league, winning 2-1 at Wycombe while Rovers lost 0-2 at home to Oldham. Just for the record, it us now 16 years, or 5844 days (including leap years) since Rovers have been above us in the football pyramid. Just thought I would put that out there! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted October 28, 2016 Report Share Posted October 28, 2016 Believe Diwali came to an end this week, the Hindu festival of light.
