Bristol Rovers will spend more time on the road travelling to away games next season.

Rovers will travel 84 miles more this year than they did during the 2012/13 league campaign.

Despite losing a couple of relatively long trips north, Hartlepool’s addition to the league has helped push up the travelling time.

Last season Rovers travelled 6,710 miles, which included the relatively short trip to Aldershot, who were relegated, and the long journey to Bradford, who achieved promotion through the play offs.

This season they will travel 6,794 - including a very short hop across the bridge to Newport.

Hartlepool, who were relegated from League One this season, is the longest away journey; a round trip of 546 miles.

The next longest trip is York, with a round trip of 442 miles, and then comes Morecambe which is a round trip of 430 miles from the Memorial Stadium.

Newport is now the shortest trip for Rovers at just 56 miles, with Cheltenham only 86 miles, and Exeter a distant second on 164 miles.
