I'm sure it was more than the officially reported 5400, sat in Gordon Road I thought the other two stands were about as full as they usually are, if not more so - and then obviously with the 1400 Sunderland fans as well it must have been more than the announced attendance.

The FA are massively to blame in my opinion. The "fit and proper owners" test is a complete sham, and many of the owners who are destroying football clubs shouldn't have been let anywhere near these clubs. I'm sure one of the Oystons was on the panel, which is utter madness. I wonder if the...

I'll miss the big man but the idea of having Hanlan and List's pace up top can potentially be fun. Although we're fucked if a team ever sits back!

So long as no one's going out of their way to stop women playing, I think it's fine for plenty of men to not be interested. There's only so much football you can watch and lots of people are going to prioritise what they grew up with anyway. I definitely get the complaints about the quality of...

He was also top (of League One) for most of last season, according to The Times' football supplement. Some of it is definitely our system, because we allow the opposition so much of the ball in central areas outside our own box that shots are inevitable. I assume it's a combo of our midfield...

I think the club need to advertise their student and kids prices much better. I started regularly going to games around 2012/13 thanks to the Friends for a Fiver tickets, and then was a season ticket holder for three years at student prices. Gordon Road block C went from £410 adult price to...

I mostly lurk here but the quality of discussion is so much better than any of the Facebook groups. It's weird, you'd think posting under your real name, you'd be more moderate - but the Facebook posters are largely nutters.

There's an alternate universe where Scally didn't use the word "loyal" and this thread would be a debate on why he didn't say that. I happily paid the £25 but then I dropped my season ticket this year as I went from student prices to adult. I can understand from a financial point of view why...

According to this http://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/discipline/suspensions the cutoff for ten yellows is the second Sunday of March. So they're in the clear!

Wilkinson looks very lazy in warmups and outside of games, and that carried over a lot onto the pitch before his sending off (unless I'm misremembering and it was actually his debut). I think when he was reintegrated into the squad he looked a lot more "up for it" but with Eaves and Parker...

While I felt the referee was appaling it was more because he wasn't applying the same (very strict) level of what constitutes an offense for both teams. Wilkinson getting a yellow for throwing the ball away is probably a yellow card, but then their player does it five minutes later with no...

First half I thought we were poor, but so were Peterborough. Adjusting to the conditions I suppose. We did eventually manage to move the ball into some dangerous positions but then the final ball in was absolutey shocking every time. Second half Posh came out and put us under a lot of pressure...

That playoff final was the first Gills win I ever saw, so I'll always be grateful to Simeon. I started going to Gills games in 2002 (not regularly!) but it took about 25 games over those seven years before I managed to see them win. In the three years I've had as a season ticket holder...

It's the hope that kills you.
