I wish my memory was that good!
However, I was at the game and remembered about Rovers undefeated streak that we brought to an end.
I did look up the scorer though and the team details, just in order to verify my thought process and cross reference it to the photo.

It's definitely the "Busfield" Stand! (Programme advert attached)
If I remember rightly it was the balcony from the old Majestic cinema - major drawback was that if you sat in the back rows you couldn't see the kop end goal!
