Gillingham FC Forum

Quiet simple once he had hired them he realized they were both pretty weak, OK as a threesome with Day but not strong enough on their own. We will see who Evans brings in.
I am intrigued to know who these American Investors were, I only sent him 5 bucks for the return post because I wanted his autograph ,I wonder if it only cost a couple of bucks for the return postage so the other 3 bucks was invested in GFC, making me an AMERICAN INVESTOR, wwoowww hhooo eat your hearts out NON INVESTORS.

After speaking with an acquaintanice, who I completely trust, Evans submitted an application for the managerial post at Walsall. They apparently took one look at it and consigned it to Room 101.

Walsall are not too dissimilar to us as a club and if SE was not right for them then why is he right for us ?

Managers are hired to be fired, none of them stay in the job for long in this day and age, if you don't get a team promoted in the first three years your either gone or your the manager of Cardiff City.
Walsall not exactly my roll model as a team to follow, I think they hired Darrell Clarke who ran out on Bristol City when they were on the verge of relegation, took over Walsall and managed to take them down. GGGOOO GILLS.

Darrell Clarke left Bristol ROVERS in December, 5 months before the end of the season! They were in the bottom 4, but hardly on the verge of relegation with 24 to go when he was dismissed! Took over at Walsall AFTER the season had finished!

My bad, but to say with 25 to go they were hardly on the verge of relegation, did you watch the Gills this year, we were bottom four till almost the bitter end , and it was his players that he walked out on , so thats what I call a LOSER,drop the ball and expect someone else to pick it up and save the day.
BIG L for loser for Clarke, and I bet you ONE MILLION MARTIAN DOLLARS , with Evans at the helm the Gills end up higher up the table than Walsall do this coming season. GO GILLS.

Not too difficult as Walsall are in League 2 !

I meant in their respective tables.

So finishing higher in League 2 is a better outcome ; excuse me if I'm missing something here but surely any safe place in League 1 has to be better

Well like people on this site have said for sometime , Division One and Division Two are much of a much*ness ,and I guess Luton proved that this year, I just said I think Gillingham will finish higher in Division One than Walsall will in Division Two,or Dover will in The Nation League,or Bournmouth will in the Premier, or Millwall will in the Championship, or,need I go on to make my point ??

But your point is flawed - last season Walsall were a small fish in a big (gish) pond and next season will be a big (gish) fish in a small pond. It's always going to be easier to assert yourself over the bottom feeders.
