Bristol Rovers Miscellany collects together all the vital information you never knew you needed to know about the Gas. In these pages you will find irresistible anecdotes and the most mindblowing stats and facts. Heard the one about the goalie whose area was deluged with oranges by adoring fans? How about the full-back who left the club under a cloud after allegedly selling his landlady's piano without her permission? Or the striker with a star named after him in the constellation Perseus? Do you know the results of the two 'socby' matches played between the Pirates and Bristol Rugby Club? Why a hypnotist offered the club his services? Or which author and ex-MP is a Gashead? All these stories and hundreds more appear in a brilliantly researched collection of trivia - essential for any Rovers fan who holds the riches of the club's history close to their heart.

Stephen Byrne is the author of Bristol Rovers On This Day and Bristol Rovers Football Club: The Definitive History, and for 17 years has penned historical articles for The Pirate matchday programme. After 20 years teaching in Wiltshire and Dorset, he moved to Kenya to teach in 2009. He and his wife Stitch have four children, all Rovers fans.
