Hello and welcome to the all new and improved Match day Hub which is now the official place for Gillingham fans, I decided to update this so that you will know where to go and chat before and during the game. I always post this a few days before the match so you can start to create a debate before the game on what you think will happen in the upcoming game, you can post who you think should play in the game and why. In addition to that you may share with us what you think the team will be that plays as that may be different to the team which you think should play, if you think a certain player should not play you can share with us the reason why as it is good to know what the fans think about the team and why certain players should not be in the team if you want to tell us why. So all you need to do is post your starting 11 plus the 7 which you think will be on the bench, you may be correct or not but it don't matter as no points are awarded it is just for fun. If I am not at the game I will normally post updates about what is going on and the team which is playing, but when I go to games I write up a match report afterwards. You can post freely during and after the game sharing your opinion with us on the result and what you thought of the players who played. If you go to the game it would be great if you could write up a match day report telling up what you think of the result and what you rate each player out of 10 giving a reason why. This is open to both Gillingham fans and also the opposition, don't be afraid to post just because you are not a Gills fan if it is friendly banter that is allowed. Have fun and debate freely! Just want to add aswell if you do any bets you can share with us what you think is the best bet, I do bets each week so I will share them with you if you want. I am going to the match I will write a report but it will probably not be till Wednesday afternoon evening as I won't have time when I get back.
Hi Hoadie Exeter fan in Peace. I read that Mad Dog is going to change your line up for tonight to "freshen things up" ?! Does this mean he is soooo worried about his regulars being trounced by City, he's going to field a 'yoof' team. I mean, if he fields his regulars and we win, the Gills will be so demoralised that tonight, will mark the beggining of your end! At least you won't have to worry about relegation... Having witnessed our great run of 1980-81, and saw a stunning 5-1 win to city... It can't be anything else but 5-1 tonight! Sadly i can't go to the match tonight... Hey ho. Anyway good luck tonight, though I suspect it's City that'll need it. And good luck for the rest of the season, though I don't think you will go up as champions. Take care. Pyder
Thanks, nice comment but I think you translated it wrongly, what MA means by Freshen things up is that he wants to rotate a bit as he don't believe in a such thing as starting 11 and back ups as they are all good enough, he will put out a team which he believes will do the job tonight as it is like a strategic operation of beating Exeter tonight, also we want the team 100% fit. Enjoy the game.
Hi Hoadie Thankyou! However, I was being a tad naughty... a bit of gentle banter! MA is a good manager and has a proven track record in turning ailing clubs around. I think this is the first time he has taken on a team from scratch, and he has done so well with the Gills. Personally, i'm not a great lover of his management style, but he does get results.
Few changes like we thought Kedwell out Burton in Lee and Allen in for Vincelot and Frampton with Jackman at the back
Sounds like an entertaining end to end game in which you have a slight edge! Just our luck the wind will change direction for the 2nd half. Think this is going to pan out a 2-2 draw or 3-2 either way.
Not bad for a Tuesday night?!. Attendance:6851... & a mahoosive 144 Spartans from the Greek quarter! And in this drizzel... Well done all.
Very quiet on here tonight. Is there anybody out there? Or is it just...Pink Floyed? My analyst warned me about talking to myself. Said I'd be ok as long as I keep taking the medication. See, the thing is I kill people...in my head. Apparently that makes me dangerous!!!!? This is getting very silly... And now for something completely different...
