    Electioneering has started

    The Tory election machine seems to be in full force again and they seem to be perusing that strategy that worded so well for them in the past. I hate those punchy three/four word slogans that appeal to the dim part of the electorate. I find myself having to avoid the TV because the following...

    Streaming Sheff Utd

    For expats: the game tomorrow is being streamed online. Details here: https://www.livesoccertv.com/match/4848266/gillingham-vs-sheffield-united/ Theoretically, how would one stream online if they were in the UK but unable to be at Priestfield Stadium? Even with a VPN, a ‘friend’ of mine is...

    Kit supplies

    We all know that the club has repeatedly bought stock for the club shop too late for the beginning of the season and has deservedly been criticised. This season supply chains have been disrupted by COVID lockdowns in Asia which has impacted all clubs. Yesterday I read that Millwall was halting...

    More injuries

    We have had a lot of players out for one reason or another, including a lot of muscle injuries (which are due to bad conditioning) and injuries to players who were signed with a known injury record. Olly Lee (tight quad, tendinitis), Dom Jeffries, Stuart O’Keefe (tight quad, tight calf), Sean...

    Harris: In or Out

    It’s a month since the last poll which was 72:28 in favour of ‘In’. Our form has continued to be poor and there’s been no noticeable improvement. One goal scored in open play from 16 matches; and the next worst scoring team in the league has scored twice as many goals as us; and we’re a point...

    Club engagement with fans

    Despite Scally’s regular (long) letters and (equally long) Chairman’s Chat videos, people still complain about communication and fans engagement. Personally, I didn’t think that Scally’s messages really landed with some of the fan base. He was allergic to social media channels and his...

    Gills chairman steps down, club to fold

    Hope that they find a solution. The usual SOB types pleading with Fisher to fund the club when they know full well that the money isn’t there.

    Yoof team players in next seasons 1st team squad

    Potentially: Chambers Gabode Sithole Akehurst Lintott Did I miss any? You’d think that at least one of them would step up during gore-season and stake a claim to be a regular starter. Looking positive!

    Our style of play

    A lot was said about BFSE’s ‘long-ball, low-possession, counter-attack’ style of play by PS, SL and dissenting fans alike. However, I notice that out style is exactly the same as under BFSE when we were being successful. Tight at the back, well organised, long diagonal balls up to Big V from...

    Credible

    Was just reading about Bellagraph Nova Group’s recent failed attempt to buy Newcastle. Incredible stuff! Worth a Google and read about their rise and fall; and insight about how difficult it is to find a credible buyer.

    Fans owned club

    The club is on the doorstep of London, it’s in a deprived part of Kent and has a history of supporter apathy. GFC isn’t an attractive proposition for an investor. The SOB want Scally to exit the club but they haven’t got a clue how that would be achieved. Their stupid 10 man protests are...

    Racism at Gillingham match (n/g)

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-dorset-58983017 Maybe some of the teams higher up in the football pyramid could follow the example of Gillingham. England team faces with blatant racism from opposing fans springs to mind. I know it might result in fines / sponsorship / TV issues - but...
