We residents of Swindon would like to stop Bristol Rovers ground sharing at the County Ground for 18 months. Over the past 2 years we have seen Bristol Rovers fans smash up the Queens Tap pub (near the train station) and also in the fixture this season both supporters fans clashed in some of the worst incidents of violence in Swindon and at the County Ground in some time. The possibility of more congestion, violence and vandalism is something we would like to prevent. Any groundshare will just add fuel to an already heated rivalry and should not be allowed to happen.

Traffic is already a nightmare on match days as it is. This is just gonna make it worse for everyone who lives here.

The mess they left last time was unbelievable. Not fair on the people who actually live near the ground.

Keep them out of our town. We dont want the hassle and the fighting back here. Bad idea.
