ROVERS fans will be able to sit alongside their Forest counterparts in a revolutionary step to integrate rival supporters in the same section of a ground today.
Family tickets are available in the T Block of the Brian Clough Stand which will see Rovers fans enjoying the match and cheering for their side in the company of home supporters.

On the pitch, Rovers are looking to build on Saturday's 2-0 win over big-spending QPR which saw them climb to 16th.

Winning away has not come as easily, with just four draws from eight games the return on their travels. They come up against an ambitious Forest who are in good form.

Despite four successive 1-1 draws, Forest are unbeaten in nine. But it was at the County Ground on Boxing Day that Rovers turned around their first season in the second tier, a 4-2 win sparking an eight-match unbeaten run which saw them climb out of the bottom three.
