Bristol Rovers Football Club

The Memorial Stadium has been owned by Bristol Rovers since 1998, when it was pruchased from the Bristol Rugby club, who were in administration at the time. The old Bristol Rugby Club has no connection to the present Bristol Shoguns, who are now tenants at the stadium and a new company altogether. The stadium capacity is just under 12,000, around 3,000 of which is seating. The seats are all located in the Mead Civil Engineering Stand, the DAS Stand and the XXXX Stand-the rest of the stadium os terracing only.
