Hello this is HOADIE_BOI with my exclusive Gillingham squad prediction for Not 606 exclusively, not to be found anywhere else. On this thread I give you the chance to guess between each other on the squad which will be fielded in the corresponding fixture. Please have a go, it doesn't matter if you get it wrong, you are not going to win or lose anything by doing this. Please predict the starting line up and the subs below. This is a Fa Cup Special prediction and it is open to Stoke fans aswell as Gillingham fans, I have posted it early as many people will want to get ready for the massive Saturday game. You can predict the Gillingham line up and the Stoke one if you want to, no points given for predictions, it is just for fun. There is also a question that you can vote on, Will Stoke field a strong side against Gillingham?
"massive saturday game" wouldnt go that far! But for stoke Begovic Shotton upson woodgate higginbotham Pennant diao whitehead delap Jerome jones
I'd like to think that stoke might want to push on in the Premier league and Europe and may just take their eye off the ball when it comes to the match but even if they don't field a "strong" side the players coming in may feel they have an opportunity to show Pulis that they are worthy of being involved in other competitions. All the players at the the club are, IMHO, stil premier league players and what ever team that is put out should be stronger than a league 2 side. So in answer to your question HOADIE Stoke will put out a strong side. Whether it will be the strongest side though I doubt very much. I think the Gills squad will line up 5-4-1 Flitney Jackman, Lawrence, Frampton, Richards, Lee Whelpdale, Montrose, J Payne, Weston Kedwell
Away at Cardiff last season after they held us at home 1-1 he still fielded a weak side. Luckily though we scraped through and the rest is history. It will defo be the second string this Saturday so who knows?
For Stoke I'd go: Begovic Wilkinson Upson Shawcross Higginbotham Pennant Delap Palacios Etherington Jones Jerome
For Gillingham I go for this which may change if we make any signings in the week, if signings are made just repost any changes Flitney Lee Richards Lawrence Frampton Whelpdale Weston J.Payne Montrose Jackman Kedwell So as it stands I go 4-5-1 but that may change if we make any signings
I am also going for a little guess for the Stoke team and here it is Begovic Wilkinson Woodgate Shawcross Higginbotham Pennant Delap Palacios Whitehead Walters Jerome Subs Sorensen Upson Diao Etherington Wilson Jones Crouch So there is my guess, probably hardly get any right.
This is a rare event Hoadie, people have responded to your line up prediction thread instead of ignoring it like most weeks. At least you give it 5 stars every time and the sudden interest must reflect that this really is a massive game. Enough of this sarcasm, I have given this a lot of thought and I reckon Gills starting line up will face the Brian Moore Stand and Stoke will line up towards the Rainham End but it could be the other way round especially if Stoke win the toss. Tony Pulis will line up towards the Gordon Road stand and will touch his toes just prior to kick off so that his backside lines up facing the Directors Box in the Priestfield Stand. Halsey will line up facing the Brian Moore Stand and will lean forward at kick off to give the Rainham Fans a response to their welcome. Scally will line up facing the back of the Medway Stand Partly to counteract Pulis's rs display insult and partly to receive a note from the caterers on how few sandwiches they are providing for the visiting directors if Pulis shows his face in the Board Room. The Islamic extremists car park attendant behind the Medway Stand will line up facing Mecca and the lady who could not get her car out to go shopping during the Aldershot game will line up with her machine gun facing the Gills fans cars that blocked her in. Peter Crouch will line up facing the moonshine still. I guess you will line up facing your playstation Hoadie but it is no substitute for real football.
I have my ticket for the game and to say I would be on my PS3 is wrong as I have not been on it for over 1 month.
Windy....don't tell Hoadie. He thinks Humour is the new striker we are signing from brb's mates in Mumbai.
I know it is only a harmless joke, but only pointing out that I have my tickets, just my quick reaction.
This would be my team provided that nobody else comes in between now and then. Flitney Lee Lawrence Frampton Richards Jackman Whelpdale J Payne Montrose Weston Kedwell SUBS: Gazzaniga S King Rance Davies Miller S Payne Rooney (Have I missed anyone out?!) If Rooney isn't willing to play in this game then I never want to see him in a Gills shirt again, simple.
BTW... Flitney Lee Frampton Richards Lawrence Jackman Whelpdale (+ Ballbag protection) Montrose Payne J Weston Kedwell Subs Whoever is left and available.
Firstly, I am not your Pal. Secondly, I have an aversion to characters like BRB who appear on many different boards, with the sole intention to irritate, just look how he describes himself? It may just give you a clue!!
