Trollope fears for Rovers pitch
Memorial Stadium
The Memorial Stadium is facing a hectic fixture schedule
Bristol Rovers head coach Paul Trollope is worried what the Memorial Stadium pitch might be like when they finally play their FA Cup replay with Fulham.

Tuesday's tie was postponed because of a waterlogged pitch and the teams will try again next Tuesday.

But before then Rovers host Walsall on Saturday, while Bristol Rugby entertain Cardiff Blues on Sunday.

Trollope told BBC Radio Bristol: "Time will tell what state the pitch will be in next Tuesday."

He added: "We will look forward to that when it comes around, but now my attention is on Walsall."

The rearrangement of Rovers' FA Cup fourth round replay means next week's League One clash with Doncaster has been postponed. No new date has yet been arranged.

Rovers have already had both their FA Cup clash with Leyton Orient and the league meeting with Swansea postponed this season due to the pitch being waterlogged.
