Don't know if there were any problems at the game, the Doris went out earlier and said there were a couple of ambulances stopped near the ground with emergency lights on.

Sounds - from that tweet - that Rovers ran in to the pub to avoid the police and/or Newport. So either they are indeed the peaceful family club they claim to be, or they ran away*. *Which, to be fair, is what I would do, but having no interest in football violence, I wouldn't have then stood by the window of the pub pretending I was well up for a scrap. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but judging by what they said about their support at Colchester I assume 5,500 is twice as many home fans as most other clubs get for a whole season.

They only get such low crowds, because Steve Lansdown once shopped at sainsburys and one of his relatives (possibly) once went to a Wycombe match....!
