Footage played in court shows the moment trouble erupted in February, just after kick-off in the clubs' FA Trophy match.
It starts with Rovers fan Martin Dunne, who is thought to have thrown the first punch, lashing out at Brett Cihlar.
In the skirmish that follows Cihlar - the only man jailed over the trouble - is knocked out by serving soldier Liam Gretton.

All 10 men involved in the incident appeared at Liverpool Crown Court last week with Cihlar, who once had an international football banning order, locked up for four months.
Ian Criddle, Crown Advocate with Mersey-Cheshire Crown Prosecution Service said: 'Football is a fun pastime. There is no place for this type of behaviour in or around the stadia.
'The sentences imposed and the football banning orders issued by the court show not only how seriously offences such as this are taken but also the work that goes on to ensure the match is a safe environment for decent supporters to enjoy the game.'
