    Football

    Impressed with the forwards you have however the back 5 you have looked a total bombscare and after you went one down you completely lost the plot and that couldve been double figures.

    Trivia - regular stations closest to Football League (and Scots league) grounds?

    Montpelier and Filton Abbey wood are the closest stations to Bristol Rovers Memorial stadium, its quite a trek from both, well over a mile from them. Most away fans tend to use Abbey Wood as it has a better service plus the walk from Montpelier is uphill the majority of the way. Parkway and...
