This is the place to post all of your Team Predictions as well as Chat before and during the match. This thread can also be used to post Updates on the match. You can also post your Views on the match after the game and discuss the performance with others. I may write my own report if I have been to the game and I will give my overall opinion on the result and what I thought of the individual performances of each player. Team News Gillingham already have a small team but there is now doubt over whether Antonio German, Chris Whelpdale or Steven Gregory will be included in the team, it is likely they will play a part as there are not many other options and with Charlie Lee suspended who may not play any more this season and Leon Legge who is injured as well as Matt Fish there could be a real weak team on show against Coventry this Sunday. The Current league table Gillingham currently sit 21st in the league table after 6 games with a poor 3 points where as Coventry City who started the season with -10 points are now 23rd in the league table with 1 point after they collected 11 points from a possible 18. My View This is a real hard game and after what happened Friday I am even more worried about this, I can't believe we would let a player like Whelpdale go as well as Lee and also Gregory who is getting better, also with German only joining this summer I think something strange is going on. It is not just about making changes as surely German would not have joined in the first place if Martin Allen didn't think he was good enough so I think this is all mad and I can't see us getting anything from this game. A defeat is all I can see. The Score and Scorers Coventry City 4-1 Gillingham (Wilson Hattrick, Clarke- Kedwell)
It is a bit hard to predict the team when you hardly have any players, if we don't include Whelpdale or Gregory this will be a real poor team as well as Leon Legge likely missing due to injury and Lee due to suspension. Well this will probably be the team. Nelson Harriman Davies Barrett Martin Linganzi Hollands Dack Weston Kedwell Bayo Don't leave much of a bench though.
I think Gillingham will line up as follows....................... -------------------------Nelson---------------------------------- Harriman--------Davies---------------Barrett---------------Martin -------------------------Gregory---------------------------------- Whelpdale---------------Hollands--------------------------Weston ----------------Kedwell--------------McDonald--------------------- Subs: Howard (GK), McKain, Allen, Linganzi, Dack, German, Akinfenwa Myles Weston has to start because without Weston in the team we have no-one in the side with pace who can go past a player and we do lack pace right the way through the team and this is something that does need addressing, I think Chris Whelpdale and Steven Gregory will start despite being named on the transfer list while Antonio German will make a sub appearance tomorrow after German scored two goals against Oxford United for The Development Squad on Tuesday. At least we will have Michael Harriman at right back because we missed him last week because Nicky Adams tore us apart, if we get a draw tomorrow then that is better then losing but we need to start winning games and while I am going to the game tomorrow and I am hoping for all three points (like I do in every-game) - I just cannot see Gillingham getting a win against a in-from Coventry City Side, but please prove me wrong Gillingham and get those three points, we need something to cheer about at the moment.
