So far so good.
Containing them quite comfortably.
Keep it tight and we’ll get chances.

Containing them?

They’ve had a free header, put woefully wide.

They’ve hit the crossbar.

They’ve just forced Turner in to a save.

 

[madrid_gill]

Ehmer now booked for a challenge no different from Madden's on Clarke and no different from the penalty not given

Yep. Absolutely no difference whatsoever

 

[ian08040]

Usual only turn up for 45 minutes,how the hell is it still 0-0,
Half hour gone No shots whatsoever

 

[The Holy Spirit]

Yep. Absolutely no difference whatsoever

Please explain the difference?

Late and didn't win the ball
Why is one a foul and a booking and the other not even a foul?

Here I'll post it again

Yep! It’s nil nil
They are the best team in the division, clear at the top.
Do you expect us to be out playing them?

Containing them?

They’ve had a free header, put woefully wide.

They’ve hit the crossbar.

They’ve just forced Turner in to a save.

And we’ve still not had an attempt on goal.

‘Stockport commentators: Gillingham are having some of the ball but just not doing anything with it’

 

[Lark]

We give it away as soon as we get into their half.
We don’t know how to play without a target man.

He clearly does win the ball

I expect us to be competitive or to have a shot on goal after 35mins and especially when playing on home soil. We have one of the biggest budgets in this league but the gulf between the two sides is huge. It’s Stockport FFS, not Man City.

Well fancy that

 

[JoeScout]

Could someone in the ground please tell the dickheads in the RE to get off Turner's back? Regardless of what you think he should be doing, you aren't helping.

 

[ChelmsfordGill]

I think i was blessed watching Gills growing up when i did 90s/00s because what happen to the type of player who was essentially (shit) but covered every blade of grass and just got everyone else going!! For my most obscure example Alan Pouton (obvious example is Hessy) small socks runs about does the dirty work gets the team going!!! WE NEED THAT!!

 

[HerrLjunga]

We have the odd decent win, we receive the odd battering, but mostly it's the same unambitious, tedious stuff week in, week out. It's so predictable in every sense.

‘Stockport commentators: Gillingham are having some of the ball but just not doing anything with it’

How many times have we heard commentators say that?

Especially when he’s been the best Gills player on the pitch.

 

[ian08040]

This is attractive,am I missing something after 50 years,what attractive means

 

[NathanH_GFC]

We done a shot!

Admittedly it probably wouldn’t have reached the goal, but it was still a shot.

 

[Trashbat]

A shot!

 

[The Holy Spirit]

He clearly does win the ball

He clearly gets it after smashing through the back of Clarke

 

[NathanH_GFC]

Walker and Clarke up top are right up there with Guylain/Delroy and Oli/Leroy.
