A superb Rovers pub with lots of memorabilia which will now be stocking a half-decent fanzine too! 🔵⚪️🌹

We are delighted, to announce that going forward the fantastic Rovers fanzine, 4,000 Holes will be available to purchase at the bar in The Rising Sun, worth every penny at just £2!

For those not familiar, 4000 Holes has become something of a Rovers institution since it was first published in 1989 and offers a brilliant and entertaining perspective on all things Blue and White.

The latest issue (111) is a special edition based on some fascinating Rovers tales from the 1990's and is well worth a read, especially when accompanied by a pint! 😉🍺

The fanzine is also available to purchase online at https://roversfanzine.bigcartel.com/
