Accrington v Gills

[Gills 58]

It's been pretty gruelling to watch. Long periods of tedium punctuated by moments of terror. The first twenty minutes we matched them fairly well, but they made a couple of chances while we, as usual, made the square root of fuck-all. Then Accrington started getting on top, things started getting bad-tempered and disjointed, and we were all at sea.

We managed to steady things towards the end of the half, but we can be very thankful to still be on level terms. Again, I can't see where a chance, let alone a goal, might come from.

Well at least your post managed to make me laugh. Thanks.

Peter says we've weathered a storm -not a siege by any means- and we've gone from posing no threat whatsoever to posing a hint of a threat. Clearly great things await us in the second half.

That's actually a very good analysis of the half. Ogilvie has been excellent, Tucker was unlucky in the first minute with a header that seemed to hit post and, from where I'm sitting, Bonham made a worldy The new stand gives a great close quarter view and the facilities behind it are a huge upgrade.

The trouble is, though, that when you've got nothing up front, the defence have to play out of their skins every week simply to avoid defeat.

I was a great save by Bonham, mind.

1 up. Rcc!

 

[Alderman Barnes]

Good lord. We're one up!

Lovely camera angle too.

[Vambogills]

Well, well, well.
Can we finally see a lead out?

 

[jokerman]

Bonham's the man.

 

[Vambogills]

Great build up for the goal with excellent hold up play and lay off by Hanlan.

 

[Billy_Bleach]

Just seen the goal on Twitter. Great move and excellent finish.

 

[Alderman Barnes]

Get in! 1-0 FT

Get in there! Well done lads. 4 points from two tricky long haul away trips this week is a good return imo. Up the Gills!

 

[jokerman]

Good to get that first away win. Bit of luck. Thank God for Bonham. But on the whole, well done Gills!

We’ve played a lot better and not got as many points as we got today.

Score line a little unfair on Accy.

Their left back should have walked in the first half for a deliberate stamp on O’Keefe.

 

[Alderman Barnes]

Great result, but that was an absolute mugging. RCC took his chance brilliantly (and it was a great pass from O'Connor), but it was practically our only decent attacking move of the match. Bonham won us that match with at least three great saves. Accrington hit the woodwork three times and they had three disallowed for offside. We won't be that lucky every week.

Stll, who cares at the moment? UTG!

Yeah, that was nasty.

 

[Gills 58]

Listening in RK. Even Peter Lloyd says it's terrible. Feel sorry for our fans at the moment.

Gills to win1 0 - somehow.

Told you.

You heard it here first.
