Those Were The Days
Those Were The Days video is a memory of the Supporters Club and its Members. The clubhouse (the tavern) was a great meeting place for entertainment and enjoyment in particular to participate in the success of the team in the 70s and 80s. Unfortunately, the good times came to an end and with it came the demise of the Supporters Club. The chance to meet, talk and reminisce had gone. Fortunately, a new meeting place was introduced, the Legends Lounge. By the involvement of the Heritage Committee, it was once again possible to meet and discuss Rovers once again and talk about the days of our successes.
