Impressive performance by The Gas beating an in-form Shrewsbury team. An organised quick attacking style earned a valuable three points.
Bristol Rovers 1 Wigan Athletic 2
Joey Barton’s first game in charge ends with defeat on the final whistle. Defensive frailties have dogged The Gas all season coupled with a lack of goals. If Joey Barton was not aware of the task ahead of him he certainly will be now as The Gas drop into the relegation zone. A bitterly dissappointing loss despite a dominating display with no end product.
Joey Barton announced as the new manager

Gillingham 2 Bristol Rovers 0
Tommy Widdrington suffers his first defeat as manager as The Gas lose a crucial game against fellow strugglers Gillingham.
Bristol Rovers 3 Portsmouth 1
A much needed three points in an eventful game. A tale of two penalties and some excellent saves by Day. With the potential new manager looking on The Gas delivered. Portsmouth will feel unlucky to lose but we desperately needed that result. UTG.
Bristol Rovers 0 Oxford United 2
An improved performance that clearly shows the lack of confidence and finishing ability in the team. A poor run of form has cost Paul Tisdale his job. Two managers in one year. Unbelievable. Relegation a real threat.
Fleetwood Town 0 Bristol Rovers 0
A valuable point earned and a clean sheet keeps The Gas out of the releation zone. A step in the right direction following Tuesday evening.
