9 March 2008 saw Rovers playing in the sixth round of the FA Cup for the first time in fifty years. They hosted Championship side West Bromwich Albion at the Memorial Stadium infront of a stadium record 12,011 spectators in a game that was screened live on BBC One.

Prior to kickoff, the weekend had seen shock results in all of the other three quarter-finals, which had raised hopes and expectations for another upset in this game, but it was not to be and West Brom ran out comfortable winners in the end.
