    Cas on Bruce

    I was listening to Talksport yesterday morning with Tony Cascarino and they mentioned that Steve Bruce was joining Jeff Stelling for the Morning show this Tuesday (6 a.m to 10 a.m). Cas piped up about their two and half years together at "gillinum" and suggested they ask Brucie about his pre...

    Five home, seven away left

    Generally, we have been playing better away from home, so it may not be an issue but after two consecutive home games, we now have the following run in: Salford (A) Barrow (A) Tranmere (H) AFCW (A) Grimsby (H) Morecambe (A) Crewe (H) Harrogate (A) Bradford (A) Barrow (H) Mansfield (A) Doncaster...

    Name that player

    Hello all. A bit of a teaser. Does anyone remember a player we took on a short loan (3 games?), I think possibly near the end of a season, maybe in the late 2000s or early 2010s. I was convinced he was French but now think he may have been German and his first name was something like Florian...

    Well done Tom Hartley - n/g

    First ball in test cricket smacked for six then 7-62 to spin England to a rare win in India. Oh, and well done to Ollie Pope for the 196 that set it up.

    Oli Hawkins - new approach?

    I have just been watching the extended highlights on iPlayer and, to me, it really highlights what an asset Hawkins could be, playing a more passing game under SC. I thought he would not fit in but, actually, he seemed to end up getting more crosses and balls in to the area to feed on and...

    Does Clemence inspire?

    Some people follow body language but I am a little disturbed and frustrated by Clem's verbal language: https://www.kentonline.co.uk/medway/sport/head-coach-accepts-pressure-is-building-on-the-gills-299171/ "they are trying to do their best" "they are doing the best they can" "I came to this...

    Colchester tickets

    Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I have just bought two tickets for the New Years Day game at Colchester through Colchester's own website. It seems I registered on there last year but as I remember I eventually bought them through the Ticket section of the Gills site. This...

    Even harder to know who to vote for - n/g

    Depressing. Starmer now praising Thatcher in a pitch to Tory Voters. If I ever had any doubt about him seeking power for power's sake, it is now removed. How the likes of Angela Rayner can stomach it, I know not. Rich to carry on getting richer and to exploit more and more. Poor to get poorer...

    The Swine

    Entered injury time 4-0 up and win 4-3 After the Aldershot fiasco, there are some real weird things going on there. Downing tools at times to make a point possibly as the players have been paid late on occasion.

    Hakeeb Adelakun

    Now playing regularly for Lincoln and scored two v the Spotters on Tuesday, making it three in the last four games, apparently. Alfie May scored a tap in, in reply. Maybe he would have been an option in the second half of last season after the team was strengthened and confidence was higher.

    Talksport 2

    Just a heads up to those who do not know, there is live coverage of our Tinpot trophy game at Pompey on Talksport 2 tonight - from 7.30 p.m, I think.

    Can one incident in a game ever justify a replay?

    The furore going in in the EPL got me thinking about when a replay can ever be justified. Obviously, last Saturday v Mansfield when we drew would have given us justification to appeal and ask for one, but what if we then lost that replay? In Liverpool's case, they lost their game so you could...

    Conor McMenamin

    Seems to be getting a lot of name checks on BBC for the Slovenia v Northern Ireland game tonight, along with another young player called Shea Charles. If we were seriously in for him, kudos to the recruitment team and it is a pity we missed out.

    Has anyone asked the question?

    With all the talk of Harris's tactics being negative, has anyone actually taken the opportunity to ask him about it during Q & A/Fans Forum sessions he has attended? I also don't recall Matt from GITB mentioning it in his interview with NH. I know he has to be polite but he could have just said...

    Dack on the scoresheet

    for Sunderland in their 5-0 drubbing of Russell Martin's Saints. Great to see after being out so long with such a nasty injury and then being sold by Blackburn. Well done, Bradders :thumbup: NB: Saints had 68% possession with nil impact - Quelle surprise.

    What sort of player is J Williams?

    I am a bit intrigued about Jonny Williams and wonder how he fits in to teams. and what his strengths are. He seems to be a regular pick when fit but our separate need for a winger suggests he doesn't drift wide or produce crosses, he clearly is not a holding midfielder and at the moment we are...

    Anyone done a speed awareness course? - n/g

    Where's Nobby when you need him? Yes, folks, after 46 years driving I have finally received my first "Notice of Intended Prosecution" due to doing 35 in a 30 limit last Saturday. Since moving up to Suffolk, I had noticed how many more cars are satisfied to crawl in the 30 maximum limit...

    When will the bubble burst?

    Caicedo. £115 million gets a 21 year old Ecuadorian worth £4 million two years ago, with 45 games in the EPL since and 7 goals in his club career. Signed by a club with a stadium that still needs improvement and that only became "big" due to an Oligarch who has since left. A club that also...

    Macanthony on Talksport this morning

    ...is sitting in for Simon Jordan on the 10 a.m show and about 50 minutes in the subject got round to Conte throwing his toys out of the pram last season and saying that Spurs were not ambitious enough. He said he only had one manager that gave him that sort of earache. Someone who he said used...
