Passed away. One of England's better managers.

I'm seeing him next week at the Hazlitt. I didn't know he is a Swindon fan and goes to watch them regularly. As we have tickets in the front row should I wear a Gills shirt and scarf?

I'd guess will also be included in 6.30 show.

Ruth Madoc has died, aged 79. Hi-de-Hi was a staple of its day. Didn't realise it started in 1980.

Sad to hear about Olivia Neutron Bomb passing away. Who wasn't taken with her in Grease or the Physical video. Another part of my youth gone. RIP

The comments in the Next PM thread got me thinking. Back when I was a teenager we went out "on the pull" most weekends. This entailed "chatting girls up" by delivering our most killer "chat up lines". Never crude (well mine weren't), maybe a bit cheeky and often complimentary. Sometimes...

Wow, who'd have thought this sport would get so enthralling. After the Men's semi final yesterday now gripped by the Women's. Just witnessed a cracking 9th end and now on tenderhooks for the 10th.

Moved to LSB's thread

Joined Lincoln on a short term contract until the end of the season. Shame we're where we are as I reckon he'd have been great alongside Big V.

Anyone else watched this? Is quite an eye-opener as to what it takes to get a football club up and running and might make a few people appreciate what goes into running a club. Granted Gills weren't in the same position when Scally took over but there has been a fair bit of work done and costs...

Rather than derail the Cheltenham thread. Remember them, I'm going to see them supporting Saxon (if the gig ever goes ahead, been postponed a couple of times now due to ill health and Covid). Saw them a couple of times at the Art College (as was) in Maidstone and at Reading Rock & Blues...

Taken charge at Southend. I thought Benno was doing OK as a non-league manager and would have moved further up the pyramid as such. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/58989394

FFS! Seems to be their new name, as that's how the BBC keep referring to them. Will probably be a car crash like the whole MyFootballClub fiasco at Ebbsfleet. AMF

Drawn games to go to extra time from next season. BBC

See they've rescheduled their tour for December. I'm hoping to get down to Margate to catch them. What about you?

Brilliant article on the BBC website. The Impossible Dream

Went head to head with an Ipswich player. Has now apologised. Am I wrong in wishing he'd gone on and planted one on the player. Not to his detriment but to see a Ref finally say "enough is enough" Linky

does a snow plough driver get to work? (and who remembers Jack, Fred, Jon and Bunty?)

Three managers sacked yesterday, Stuart McCall by Bradford (again), David Dunn by Barrow and, sadly, Peter Beadle by Barnet. Sad to see an ex-Gill not doing so well. Their records that led to the sack were six defeats, nine games without a win (and only 2 in 22 all told) and nine without a win...
