The 2012-13 season will be the 130th season in Bristol Rovers' history and their 86th in the Football League. Rovers will once again compete in League Two, the lowest level of the Football League, after finishing 13th in the 2011-12 season.
Bristol Rovers will meet Fleetwood Town for the first time in their history after their promotion from the Conference National. It will also be the first time they will play at Chesterfield's B2net Stadium, following their relegation from League One, and Rotherham United's New York Stadium, subject to completion.
