Rovers Draw Port Vale Away in FA Cup Second Round
Bristol Rovers will make the trip to Vale Park in early December after being drawn away to League One side Port Vale in the second round of the Emirates FA Cup. The tie will be played between Friday 5th and Monday 8th December, setting up a familiar reunion for Darrell Clarke , returning to his old club for what’s sure to be a lively occasion. The Gas booked their place in the second round after a 2-1 win at Bromley on Saturday, with Fabrizio Cavegn and Joel Cotterill getting

Lockyer’s Return Overshadowed as Rovers Collapse Again at Crawley
It was meant to be a weekend of hope for Bristol Rovers, the emotional return of Tom Lockyer, a player who embodies everything good about the club. But by full-time at Crawley, hope had turned into humiliation. The Gas were ripped apart 4–0, making it 12 goals conceded in the last three games, and leaving supporters asking the same painful question: where did it all go wrong? Because not long ago, things felt different. Back in September, Rovers were unbeaten — full of belief

“Welcome Home, Locks!” – Tom Lockyer Returns to Bristol Rovers
Bristol Rovers have confirmed the signing of Tom Lockyer, marking an emotional return to the club six years after his departure. The 30-year-old defender has signed a deal until the end of the season — and few stories in football will feel quite as special as this one. Lockyer’s comeback is nothing short of remarkable. After suffering a cardiac arrest while playing for Luton Town in December 2023, many feared his playing days were over. But true to character, the Welshman has

Same Old Story as Rovers Crumble Again at the Mem
It’s starting to feel all too familiar for Bristol Rovers. Just a week after being thumped 4–0 by MK Dons, the Gas suffered another humbling defeat — this time a 4–1 loss at home to Tranmere Rovers — in a performance that carried uncomfortable echoes of last season’s struggles. The optimism that had started to build under Darrell Clarke has taken a serious knock. Once again, Rovers looked flat, disjointed, and short of belief — and Tranmere, winless in seven before this, took

Cup Day in Bromley – Gasheads Head South for November 1st
Mark your calendars, Gasheads — on Saturday 1 November 2025, Bristol Rovers travel to Bromley in the FA Cup first round. The tie at Hayes Lane is a big opportunity for the Gas to put things right and remind everyone what they’re capable of. Bromley are no longer the National League side many remember — they’re now an established League Two outfit, having earned promotion in 2024 and settled well into life in the EFL. That means this won’t be any sort of “banana skin” — it’s a
