    Mika Mandron

    Am surprised that he hasn't gone to a League One club, if I'm being honest. He certainly was the one stand out player in a sh1te Crewe Alexandra team last season. So quite pleased that we have managed to secure his services.

    Next PM?

    Wasnt referring to Medway though, was I? :) I was talking about the Tory-inclined voters of Gillingham/Rainham. But I would say that Medway as a whole is certainly becoming more diverse and a tad wealthier, certainly since I sold up and moved back to London in 2015. Medway certainly now feels...

    Gills vs Dover

    Ehmer *WAS* a solid defender, but regressed markedly after going to Bristol Rovers and his confidence only improved slightly on his return, and hasn't been the same player since.

    It doesn't really need to be pointed out that Gillingham is significantly more diverse than each of those towns (bar perhaps Stoke) and has both an established and growing middle-class, particularly in Rainham, because of its location in the Home Counties, benefitting from its proximity to...

    Gills new signings

    Joe Piggott would be an ideal signing, and would make sense as he either he or his close family still live in Kent. Would be interesting to see if he is prepared to drop down a league.

    I wouldn't use the term 'racist'. But having an 'unconscious, enthnocentric lean'? Yes, probably. Like I said, I hope I'm wrong.

    Next PM?

    Ok, I should have clarified that I meant *Tory* voters in those places. Clearly Labour voters in those towns would vote for a diverse candidate but not on a Tory/Right platform. But as much as I hope I'm wrong, I genuinely don't see it happening.

    Future Gills owner/Birmingham

    I suspect that the 2022 World Cup will arouse interest from the Gulf, because owning a football club will soon be a the new plaything for bored Qatari, Saudi, Omani and Emirati investors with a few billion to splash. So I won't be surprised if some random sheikh turns up on Linden Road in a...

    Next PM?

    I would welcome any one of Braverman, Badenoch or Sunak. But judging from the comments I have I have already read or seen on online forums and Twitter doesn't give me any hope that the Tories would go for any of them. Which is a shame because the Tories desperately need a relevant, diverse...

    Shirt sponsorship

    Anyone other than Medway Council! How about 'The Dead Pigeon' pub on Rochester High Street? Their logo would be an amazing addition for a start....

    Jack Tucker

    I wish him well and it looks like we have done alright out of this deal. However, he isn't Championship standard; nowhere near. His mistake, that partly resulted in the first goal we conceded to Rotherham in *that game* bears some testimony to this self-evident truth. Perhaps he couldn't...

    Incoming Transfer speculation

    That does make sense, in so far as some non-league players are already professionals and earning top dollar at teams such as Wrexham, Borehamwood, Barnet etc. But it can also be risky, especially as ever more non-league players in the Conference National are using agents, insist on playing a...

    Incoming Transfer speculation

    If Ipswich find themselves stuck interminably in League One a la Sunderland, then yes, it's a possibility but Ipswich still have a large support and catchment base across Suffolk in towns like Woodbridge etc. Essex, however, is an entirely different kettle of fish because of 'White Flight'...

    Jack Tucker

    Which would make sense as he is a L1 standard player. If he was to go to a Championship side, he could well find himself out of his depth and would need to develop his skillset more quickly.

    Ukraine Situation

    But was in fact part of Russia as far back as the 1940's. In fact, it was 'gifted' to Ukraine by either Kruschev during the days of the USSR to mitigate against the risk of Ukraine breaking away from the USSR (after Stalin's famine). This explains why everyone on the peninsula speaks Russian...
