I knew it was coming but still reading this made a bit bleary eyed.

The End of an Era

Dear Pumpkinstew,

For decades, the Memorial Stadium has been part of Bristol Rugby's sporting heritage. It has, over the years, hosted legends such as Sam Tucker, John Blake and John Pullin through to the likes of Shaun Perry and Matt Salter today, with tireless support from generations of fans like you.

But all things change. And on Saturday 3rd May we play our final match there, before our temporary move away during the stadium redevelopment.

This will be your very last chance to join us at the original Mem, in the unique atmosphere that has become part of our tradition over all these years. Whether you sit in the Centenary Stand or sound off from the terraces with your pasty and pint, be there on 3rd May to mark the end of an era in our club's rich history.

I don't know if I'll ever have kids but they were going to stand next to me at the terraces of the Mem if I did.
