The history of Bristol Rovers F.C. began over 120 years ago, in 1883. In that time the club has enjoyed limited success on the field and a turbulent, at times, history off of it. Bristol Rovers have enjoyed success, endured failure and faced homelessness on more than one occasion.

“It’s of a rich squire in Bristol doth dwell,
There are ladies of honour that love him well,
But all was in vain, in vain was said,
For he was in love with a charming milkmaid.”

“The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
