2006–07 Bristol Rovers F.C. season

The pre-season period was a turbulent one, with a potential take-over of the club by Mike Turl being rejected by then-chairman Geoff Dunford.

Senior players John Anderson, who had been assistant manager to Paul Trollope during his spell as caretaker manager the previous year,[5] Ali Gibb, Jon Bass and Christian Edwards were released, while Jamie Forrester moved to Lincoln City on a free transfer.

These were Mark Preece, Matt Thorne, Ben Willshire and goalkeepers Ryan Clarke and Martin Horsell.

The first leg at the Memorial Stadium was won 2–1 by Rovers, thanks to goals by Craig Disley and Richard Walker.

The second leg was played at Sincil Bank and ended 5–3, with Stuart Campbell, Rickie Lambert, Richard Walker, Sammy Igoe and Sean Rigg scoring the goals.

A record attendance for a League Two playoff final of 61,589 watched the game, and saw Rovers win the match 3–1 and gain promotion for only the fourth time in the club's history.

The FA Cup was more successful, with the team reaching the fourth round where they were beaten 1–0 by Derby County.

The game was played at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, but resulted in a 3–2 defeat after extra time, the score being 2–2 after 90 minutes.

This is a list of the significant events to occur at the club during the 2006–07 season, presented in chronological order.

The team finished sixth in Football League Two, reaching the play-offs for the first time since the 1997–98 season.

They fared better in the FA Cup however, reaching the fourth round stage where they lost again to a Championship team; this time Derby County.

The team kit for the 2006–07 season was produced by Erreà and the main shirt sponsor was Cowlin Construction.
