Ahead of our forthcoming game I’m putting together the opening post for our forum’s (One Team in Bristol, https://www.otib.co.uk/?_fromLogin=1) match thread, which will be posted the day before the match.

I would like to include some perspectives from your fans so if anybody would like to share info please do, anything would be appreciated, fans thoughts about the game, players who have represented both clubs, tales from when we’ve met previously, a fans view on your season, top tips for traveling fans, good pubs for away fans, etc, etc.

Look forward to receiving info and to a great game.
I'd say Gerry Gow is one player who stands out as having played for both teams and he is a Millers' legend. Sent of within two minutes of his home debut against Derby on 2/2/82, a game we went on to win 2-1 which started a record run of 8 wins in the month of February and 9 wins in total. That run catapulted us from the old Division 2 relegation fodder to promotional hopefuls in a season where we came almost as close to getting to the top tier as we've ever done. Sadly Gerry missed a penalty in a 2-2 draw at Millmoor against Luton which contributed to our downfall. Whenever RUFC are in need of a hard man in midfield, anyone who followed us back then will say "we need a Gerry Gow type of player".

Another one is Shaun Goater but I'll let someone else wax lyrical about him.
