*   Bristol Rovers beat Exeter City 7-6 on penalties after their League Cup First Round tie had finished 2-2 on aggregate.

** Bristol Rovers beat York City in the Second Round of the League Cup on the away goals rule after the tie had finished 2-2 on aggregate.

***  Overnight following Bristol Rovers' opening League fixture against Orient on August 16th a fire took hold in the South Stand of their Eastville Stadium home, destroying the stand which contained the club offices and changing rooms. As a result their next 5 home matches - three in the League and two in the League Cup - were played on 'enemy' territory, Bristol City's Ashton Gate Ground (matches marked with ***). The season ended just as disappointingly as it had started. Bristol Rovers - and Bristol City - were relegated to Division 2.
