The '''Bristol derby''' is the name given to [[Association football|football]] matches played between [[Bristol City F.C.|Bristol City]] and [[Bristol Rovers F.C.|Bristol Rovers]] (a "[[local derby]]"). The fans of each club consider the other to be their main rivals,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.footballfanscensus.com/issueresults/Club_Rivalries_Uncovered_Results.pdf |title=Rivalry uncovered |work=Football fans census |access-date=2007-09-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131020074918/http://www.footballfanscensus.com/issueresults/Club_Rivalries_Uncovered_Results.pdf |archive-date=20 October 2013 }}</ref> leading to a heated atmosphere at these matches. The majority of the meetings between the teams have been in the [[Football League]], and they used to meet annually in the [[Gloucestershire Cup]].

The Bristol derby was deemed 8th fiercest rivalry in English football in an in-depth report by the Football Pools in 2008.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.footballpools.com/football-fever/rivalries-league.html |title=Rivalries League |publisher=Football Pools |date=2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080704182729/http://www.footballpools.com/football-fever/rivalries-league.html |archive-date=4 July 2008}}</ref>

==History==
The first meeting of what would become a fierce rivalry took place on 22 September 1894, when newly formed Bristol South End (later to be renamed Bristol City) hosted a friendly match with Eastville Rovers (later Bristol Rovers) at their ground at St John's Lane in [[Bedminster, Bristol|Bedminster]], in which Bristol South End (nicknamed the ''Southerners'' at the time), perhaps surprisingly, defeated their more established opponents 2–1. After a further number of friendly matches, the teams had their first competitive meeting when they were drawn together in the [[1895–96 in English football|1895–96]] [[Gloucestershire Cup]]. This time Rovers, who had the home advantage at their Ridgeway ground, were the victors with an emphatic 4–0 defeat of South End,<ref name="Byrne & Jay">{{cite book |last=Byrne |first=Stephen |author2=Jay, Mike |title=Bristol Rovers Football Club – The Definitive History 1883–2003 |year=2003 |publisher=[[Tempus Publishing|Tempus]] |location=[[Stroud, Gloucestershire|Stroud]] |isbn=0-7524-2717-2}}</ref> in what was reported to have been a very physical encounter:

{{blockquote|text=It was a regular cup tie, and was characterised by very rough play, and an inclination on the part of a number of players to "have a few words" with their opponents–in fact on two or three occasions the referee had to remind the offenders that it was not a boxing contest.|source=[[Bristol Mercury (newspaper)|Bristol Mercury]], 27 January 1896.<ref>{{cite news |title=Athletics |work=Bristol Mercury |date=27 January 1896 |access-date=12 January 2016 |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000035/18960127/006/0003| via = [[British Newspaper Archive]]|url-access=subscription }}</ref>}}

The following season the teams met in league competition for the first time when South End joined the [[Western Football League|Western League]], winning 2–0 away to Rovers on 26 September 1896. In 1897 South End renamed themselves Bristol City and played in both the [[Southern Football League|Southern League]] and the now-professional Western League, but opted to leave the Western League a year later. Rovers meanwhile split their seasons between the [[West Midlands (Regional) League|Birmingham & District League]] and Western League, not joining the Southern League until 1899, meaning there were no league matches played between the clubs during the [[1898–99 in English football|1898–99 season]].

In the summer of 1900, City merged with local rivals [[Bedminster F.C.]], with the new club retaining the name and identity of the original Bristol City.<ref>{{cite news |title=Sporting Gossip |work=[[Gloucestershire Echo]] |date=12 April 1900 |access-date=15 December 2015 |url=http://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000320/19000412/057/0003 |via=[[British Newspaper Archive]] |url-access=subscription }}</ref> Rovers and City spent just two seasons together in the Southern League before City successfully applied for election to [[The Football League]] in 1901, leading to a 21-year gap before they would play in the same division again.<ref name="Byrne & Jay"/>

Games between the two teams, like the majority of local derbies in [[Football in England|English football]], have resulted in a number of [[football hooliganism]] incidents. In a match between the clubs in December 1996, [[pitch invasion]]s by both sets of fans culminated in reports of Rovers players being "assaulted" by City fans.<ref>{{cite news|title=FA to probe fury that shamed Bristol derby Late equaliser then mounted police called to restore order|first=Steve|last=Tongue|date=1996-12-16|work=The Herald|location=Glasgow|access-date=2014-06-21|url=http://www.heraldscotland.com/sport/spl/aberdeen/fa-to-probe-fury-that-shamed-bristol-derby-late-equaliser-then-mounted-police-called-to-restore-order-1.421825}}</ref> Some fans of both teams have even been known to avoid attending derby matches because of fears of violence.<ref>{{cite book |title=Bristol Derby Days |author=Neil Palmer |year=2011 |isbn=978-1-907657-78-8}}</ref>

The most recent match between the two sides came on 4 September 2013 in the [[EFL Trophy|Johnstone's Paint Trophy]] first round at City's [[Ashton Gate Stadium]]. The game finished 2–1 to City.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/23860414 |title=Bristol City 2–1 Bristol Rovers |publisher=BBC |access-date=2013-09-05  | date=2013-09-04}}</ref> The match, which was broadcast live on [[Sky Sports]],{{citation needed|date=October 2020}} was overshadowed by a post match pitch invasion by a number of Bristol City supporters, leading to 60 arrests being made and three police officers injured.<ref>{{cite news |title=Bristol football derby: 28 arrests made in dawn raids |url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-bristol-24739809 |access-date=16 October 2020 |publisher=BBC News |date=30 August 2013}}</ref>
