    I never understand why folks have such hatred of other teams unless it’s Liverpool of course as their fans are vomit inducing. I can only summise they got bummed by certain teams fans when they were young and now hate them as a consequence.

    yeah, getting a club to punch above their weight and done a good job. However he's been awful with the money though. The more they spend the worse they get. Look at this pile of **** they've signed and for the costs:

    LLoyd Kelly 13m
    Phillip Billing 15m
    Rich 11m
    Lerma 25m
    Solanke (who left on a free from chelsea to pool) for 19m and had scored **** all for either club
    Mepham 12m
    Ibe 15m
    Rico 13m
    Begovic 10m

    A lot of money gambling on "rough gems" cause they may have played in the england u21s. Most of them had done feck all.

    Decent signings
    Ake for 20m
    Brooks for 11m

    Yeah that's what I was alluding to that they / he has spent poorly.

    Says it all that in their third PL season the bulk of the team was still made up of their Championship/League one squad.

    Ole Ron has always been Mr Gillingham to me, had some great memories of him between the sticks. I did even go to Northfleet one time as a young lad, no one fooking told me Gravesend & Northfleet was miles from Gravesend Station <laugh> Obviously all before Ebbsfleet. I always thought if Gills went under, I'd probably go and watch Ebbsfleet instead. Would love to have seen that friendly against Clough's 11. I remember going up to Nott's County, standing in the shadow of Forest, made me wish I had gone and watched the old Forest play that day. I can remember a little ole boozer there just across the little bridge over the canal. Great day out as it happened.

    Imagine Klopp’s face being offered £19m for Solanke.

    unfortunately offside by the law of the game. Soucek kicked it into antonio before then kicking it into the back of the goal even if realistically by the fair play award of the game theres **** all antonio is going to do on the floor. Thats the sort of common sense decision you would let slide and give the goal but VAR coming into ruin the game and hopefully save our season

    and 15m for ibe and 3m for brad smith. Probably a good thing bournemouth go down so they can't keep throwing money at pool

    I know you lot don't realise it but there's scores of clubs whose fans would be delighted with an owner who runs a debt free club in the Premier League.
