And it won't get spoilt much by the ball - it won't spend much time on the surface.
.... I think it was grumpygit who said that you can't polish a turd. It's a pity that there was so much of it on show today.
I would love to have some positivity - I'm struggling.

So let's get this right, we laid a new pitch so we could play beautiful football, now we have a new pitch, we play football in the clouds...

I'm sure Brian Clough would have advised Scally to have laid the grass up there.

I've given my thoughts on hoofball, many a time over the years. I'm sure you all know how much i love pacey wingers.

Which brings me to a comment i saw on the Plymouth board after our defeat;

'A note of caution though. Gillingham don't attack down he flanks much. How will Conor Grant fare at LB against a tricky winger?'

Which leaves me to say, I heard the supporter coach broke down on the way back, even that had given up on pace!
 
brb that's actually not true in my opinion and I was there. Your players targetted one of our backs because he was having a bit of a torrid time. Taffiri Moore at RB. They repeatedly went down that side and repeatedly got balls into the middle. I have just read something on the beeb football site by your man who says it was embarrassing last night and he was offering those that went a free game sometime in the future. Well just because you lost to Argyle doesn't make it embarrassing. Your side were not in the game that much to be fair but a lot of that was because we played a whole lot better than we have so far this season. I'd almost go so far as to say his comments and offer are a bit on the rude side.

For your team to be trashed by Paul Scally and for him to be embarrassed by the Gills performance is being a little disingenuous towards Argyle's performance, especially in those first 45 minutes.

Argyle have had up to ten players out injured recently....plus their torrid start to the season.....very similar to what happened last season....continually chopping and changing to find a starting eleven.....last night it clicked...we stopped giving every other team a start by stupid mistakes in defence and for you it was unfortunate that you were the team in the way.

I was at your place last May ....we had run out of steam losing important players to injury after a great run to finish 7th......and you put five past us.....you probably couldn't believe your luck.

I'm sure you'll be picking up points on the road again as you did at Portsmouth.....with Paul Scully being embarrassed so easily and giving free tickets away to your travelling fans...will he run out of money....it's surely not that bad.

No disrespect to plymouth but i think Scally knows Gills have 4 home games coming up and hopes a few more will attend. Plus its a long way to go on a tuesday night. Hope you and us can go on a run like last season.​
 
Watching the Doncaster game - Have they nicked all the grass from Priestfield ?
Our pitch looks dreadful - I'd go so far as to say that it doesn't seem any better than before we spent circa half a million £££ on it.
Why can't our 'new' pitch be anything like the Doncaster pitch --- maybe it's the horse manure they use from the nearby race course -- as you know we have to rely on a different type of fertiliser / excrement.
