    Interesting things about the Medway Towns that you never knew

    I think that we should expect the BBC to be up to date. I actually heard a presenter refer to Mother nature this morning, (shock, Horror!) Good God, they will be referring to Father Christmas next?

    Interesting things about the Medway Towns that you never knew

    The Plaza in Gillingham used to have "double seats" in the back rows specifically for courting couples. (i.e. No central arm rest). First film watched there was an early James Bond, I think it was "From Russia with Love". On a Friday could leave Gillingham on the 5pm bus and, travelling to...

    Pat Terry

    I fondly remember a goal against Chic Broadie playing in goal for Brentford. Both players jumped for the ball but Pat's head was higher than Chic's upstretched arms. Unfotunately, Pat's knee connected with Chic's chin who was knocked out. In today's world Pat would probably be sent off for...

    The (ex)Squatters

    Oliver Ashe usedd to be a Gillingham supporter until it was rumoured that he had had a falling out with Paul Scally. Whether you like him or not there can be no doubt that he is the major mover behind the extra-ordinary revival of Maidstone where they have a nice and improving ground. We should...
