YEOVIL Town will be hosting Bristol Rovers for a special friendly to celebrate the career of Marcus Stewart.

YEOVIL Town will be hosting Bristol Rovers for a special friendly to celebrate the career of Marcus Stewart.

Stewart has played a key role for both clubs, both on and off the pitch, having also featured at all levels of the football pyramid. The game will take place on July 19 at Huish Park, kick-off 3pm.

Born in Hartcliffe, Bristol, Stewart began his professional career with Rovers, where he made over 170 appearances. During his time there, he scored in the 1995 Second Division play-off final which ultimately ended in defeat.

That moment was just the start of a career that would bring accolades, admiration and memories to fans across the country.

Nearly a decade later, Stewart arrived at Huish Park at a pivotal time in the club's history. His spell with the Glovers saw him play a key role in the club's remarkable push to the League One play-offs in just their second season at that level.
