In this electrifying image captured by Joe Meredith/JMP on September 4, 2013, at Ashton Gate Stadium, the euphoria of the fans from Bristol City and Bristol Rovers is palpable during their highly anticipated derby match in the Johnstone Paint Trophy first round. The air was thick with excitement as the two local rivals faced off in this competitive and significant fixture of the English football season. The moment of triumph for the victorious team, however, was abruptly halted as the police intervened to maintain order on the pitch. With the scoreline still uncertain, fans from both sides surged forward to celebrate their team's success, creating a chaotic scene. The scene took a dramatic turn when the authorities intervened, deploying police horses to disperse the fans and secure the area. Despite the interruption, the image encapsulates the raw passion and intensity of the derby atmosphere, with the fans' unwavering commitment to their teams evident in their expressions and actions. The old rivalry between the Robins of Bristol City and the Pirates of Bristol Rovers was on full display, making this cup game a memorable moment in the 2013-2014 football season. This photograph is a testament to the unique energy and spirit of a local derby, showcasing the unbreakable bond between the fans and their teams. The image is a must-have for any collection of Bristol City and Bristol Rovers memorabilia, and a reminder of the unforgettable moments that make football in England so special.
