The day also consisted of a Ferry trip from Embankment to Greenwich.<br /><br />We estimate that over £3000 was raised towards the Reclaim the Rovers campaign.<br /><br />THE GROUP :<br /><br />The London Rovers were formed in 1993, uniting under the common theme of Raith Rovers supporters living in London and the south–east.<br /><br />The participants on 14th August 2005 were :<br />Niall Russell<br />Bill Gilby<br />Ross Gilby<br />Steve Wallace<br />Greig Codd<br /><br />All of the group are lifelong supporters of Raith Rovers FC.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15577341-112470611305767770?l=londonrovers.blogspot.com'/></div>London Rovershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02723750820631301748noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15577341.post-1124457260005858472005-08-19T14:13:00.000+01:002005-08-22T11:25:46.263+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/1600/Chelsea2%20small.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/320/Chelsea2%20small.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />.... is smaller than theirs!<br /><br /><br />Stamford Bridge - Chelski<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15577341-112445726000585847?l=londonrovers.blogspot.com'/></div>London Rovershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02723750820631301748noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15577341.post-1124457010914729402005-08-19T14:09:00.000+01:002005-08-22T11:34:23.376+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/1600/WestHam2%20small1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/320/WestHam2%20small1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br />Haven't we lost something?<br /><br />Ross goes MIA at West Ham's, Upton Park - or The Boleyn Ground for all you aficionado's out there.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/15577341-112445701091472940?l=londonrovers.blogspot.com'/></div>London Rovershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02723750820631301748noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15577341.post-1124456937280260842005-08-19T14:07:00.000+01:002005-08-22T11:44:51.793+01:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/1600/Fulham2%20small2.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/320/Fulham2%20small2.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/6301/1288/1600/Fulham2%20small.jpg"><br /></a><br />Sadly getting shut out of the bar at Fulham's Craven Cottage.
