In this electrifying image captured by Rogan Thomson during the Johnstones Paint Trophy First Round match at Ashton Gate, the intensity of the local derby between Bristol City and Bristol Rovers is palpable. The focus is on midfielders John-Joe O'Toole of Bristol Rovers and Jay Emmanuel-Thomas of Bristol City, who engage in a fierce clash during the first half of the competitive fixture. The atmosphere at Ashton Gate was electric as the two teams met in the first round of the Johnstones Paint Trophy, also known as the "Bristol Derby" or the "Robins v Pirates" derby, in the 2013-14 season. Both teams were determined to secure a victory in front of their home fans. O'Toole, an Irish midfielder for the Gasheads, puts in a strong challenge on Emmanuel-Thomas, a first-team player for the Robins. The English footballer, known for his agility and goalscoring abilities, tries to maintain possession of the ball while O'Toole's tackle threatens to disrupt his flow. The clash between the two players encapsulates the competitive spirit and determination that defines local derbies. The Johnstones Paint Trophy, a knockout tournament for English football clubs below the Championship level, provided an exciting opportunity for these two teams to meet on the pitch and battle for the trophy. The first round marked the beginning of the tournament, and both teams were eager to secure a win and progress to the next round. This image perfectly captures the passion and energy of the game, as well as the importance of local derbies in the world of English football. The tension between the two teams and their fans added to the excitement of the match, making it a memorable moment in the history of the Bristol Derby.
