The Poplar Insulation East Stand is divided into three sections, the largest of which is the elevated seating area. This is made up of three blocks of seating, and the vertical rows in each make up blue and white stripes. The whole area is covered by a large iron roof which hangs well over the front rows, but there are very low windshields that do not provide a great deal of protection from either side.
Because of the cantilever roof on top, there are no supporting pillars that restrict your view and as a result these are the best seats in the house for those who like being high up.
Down below the seating area is the Poplar Insulation Terrace. The standing area is in front of the seating section and also on either side, and only part of this central section is covered by the stand’s roof.
Most of this terracing area is therefore uncovered and on the cold days and nights you will be exposed to the elements.
An area of covered seating, known for sponsorship reasons as the Bristol Response Locksmiths Family Stand, is behind part of the East Stand terracing and near to the northeast corner. This Family Stand is simply a few blocks of blue seating with a blue and white striped roof overhead that looks like a something you’d find at a carnival.
Supporting poles run regularly along the front of this stand to keep the roof up and as a result your view of the pitch will be restricted slightly, but you will have protection over your head.

The Memorial Stadium has just a single screen inside, which can be found near to the southeast corner in the open space that is not taken up by the Brunel South Stand.
A live scoreboard, as well as a match clock, is displayed on here and can be seen by most parts of the football ground.

The Brunel South Stand follows the same design as the Family Stand; blocks of blue seating covered by a carnival-like blue and white striped roof.
The stand only runs two thirds of the way along the width of the pitch, with the rest of the space here made up by the South Stand concourse and a small area which fans may sometimes choose to stand in on a clear day.
The letters BRFC are spelt out in white along the seating blocks, and pillars run regularly along the front of the stand which will restrict your view, unless you are sat in the very front row.
Unlike the Bristol Response Locksmiths Family Stand however, the Brunel South Stand does have a back wall to it, and has a lot more rows of seats within.
Additionally, the side of the stand over by the southwest corner is covered and so the wind and rain cannot easily get through this side.

The Nuffield Health West Stand is divided into three main sections, with the largest part being in the centre and also the one with the best view of the pitch.
The central building is divided into three levels, the lowest one being made up of uncovered standing terrace and the two seating areas above being stacked on top of one another. The top tier is the executive seating area and there is a row of executive boxes behind here, whilst the mezzanine that holds the matchday camera is further up above this.
Your view from the top and middle tiers is pretty clear and the terrace underneath is much lower down so you won’t have people stood in your way.
Only part of the low terracing area is covered by the roof, whereas every one of the seats is protected from above.
Close to the Nuffield Health West Stand is the Cooling FX Northwest Terrace. This is an area of fully covered terracing that has pillars on just the ends of the stand and so your view from here is relatively good, especially in comparison to other parts of the football ground.
Over on the other side of the West Stand is the Termination Technology Southwest Stand. This is a near mirror-image of the Family Stand diagonally opposite but is larger and has more seats inside. It has a blue and white striped roof and pillars running regularly along it that restrict your view of the pitch. Only one side of the stand, the side closest to the southwest corner, has a wall up that stops the wind from coming in.

The Thatchers North Stand is the simplest of the main four at the Memorial Stadium.
The stand is made entirely of terracing which is completely covered by a roof, though the back wall only goes part way along, with the exposed concourse and food stalls located behind it.
Large pillars run regularly across the front of the stand to hold the roof up and you can guarantee your view of the pitch to be somewhat restricted as a result.
There are no windshields on the sides either and so in the winter months this stand can get very cold very quickly.
It is however usually one of the most packed stands in the Memorial Stadium and you can expect the most vocal Bristol Rovers fans to be positioned behind the goal here.
