Vital 1st Team Regular
Morning one and all, match day again (note the 1.00pm kick off), this time against the Tractor Boys and their newly installed manager, Paul Cook.
Haiving unceremoniously binned the dour Paul Lambert due to a "significant difference of opinion", the club moved with indecent haste to appoint their third consecutive managerial "Paul" to be his replacement. Indeed, four of their last five managers have been called Paul. Odd.
Sitting in 7th on the magic "we're not getting relegated" 50 point total, they've won their last three on the bounce, including an away game at 'Ull, so Gills are going to have to give absolutely everything from the first whistle to get a positive result today. A slow start or poor first half could see us punished.
The match will see a return to Priestfield for Holy the Goalie, our well-liked former custodian. It's nice to see that he's established himself, but it would be good to try and exploit his weakness of low, hard shots close to him.
Apologies for the lateness of this thread, the kids have miraculously allowed me a proper lie-in, so time to get up, put the coffee and bacon on and assess the damage they've caused to each other and the house.
COYG!
