Former Bristol Rovers director Kevin Spencer will no longer be able to attend matches at the Memorial Stadium due to a ban issued by the club.

Spencer, who resigned from the League Two outfit in 2006 following a rift with the board, has been told to stay away from any matches involving the Pirates due to "persistent criticism" of the club.

The club released a statement, which said: "The board feels that the only way to move on is to exclude him from future events."

Spencer's departure also triggered the exit of former managing director Mike Turl.
