There is a bar at the ground "Boots and Laces" which welcomes away fans.

You may aswell head to the Union since its owned by a Rovers fan..

Should be a great atmosphere with you pushing for promotion and us just happy to be rid of the special one.

Any recommendations of places to drink before the game?[/quote]

Yes, it's definitely the Union Inn, Plainmoor for all Rovers fans. As Alex says, Geoff the Landlord is a Gashead and will be serving behind the bar in his Rovers shirt.

The Boots & Laces at the ground is always a good shout, away fans more than welcome.

Are Rovers fans allowed in Boots? I thought because it's a category A game only home fans are allowed in B & L? Or am I talking complete rubbish?

I'm not sure, the Argyle game was due to the sheer amount of fans they brought, so I guess the same will be happening on Saturday! :whip:

It's looking like Scott Bevan will be in goal on Saturday as Poke was injured recently. I can't wait to see him flapping a few early balls in the box!

Poke will be back on sat. Especially after Bevans horror show last night.

Cheers for advice re where drink. Will prob pay a visit to both the boot & laces and the union.

Very short walk from the Union Inn to Boots & Laces at the ground..

Boots and Laces will not be allowing away fans for this fixture.

Should be a good game, as Rovers have improved greatly since earlier in the season, and a great atmosphere. But with the form Torquay are in, I can't see anything other than an emphatic win for the Gulls.

Rovers will hold out for around 10-15 minutes. Then they will buckle.. =D

I can confirm that on Police instructions, away fans will not be able to enter Boots & Laces this coming Saturday.

Looks like they are hoping to "take over" the Family Stand on Saturday.... http://www.brfcforum.co.uk/index.php?/t ... y-tickets/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'd imagine many will be travelling down without tickets hoping to get in the popside, if my place wasn't already guaranteed, I'd probably be buying a ticket today or tomorrow, or at the latest 1pm on sat.

I guess it's our job (if we feel it's needed), to point them out....depends on if we are winning or not
