Gillingham FC Forum

Sorry to hear of your loss Gillsfan. This board does have a habit of introducing "old" new faces just like Doug (Bunbury) a few years ago. Would be surreal meeting you. Come down in May for the presentation evening - that way you won't have to watch any Gills games!!!

Thank you very much ,pretty hard after all these years together, anyway it won't be this May ,I have other plans for the summer, I am thinking of Christmas time , when I can see the might Big Blue Machine play . I guess they will play on the Friday or Saturday and then the Tuesday (Boxing day,) then the same the following weekend ??

Thank you very much ,pretty hard after all these years together, anyway it won't be this May ,I have other plans for the summer, I am thinking of Christmas time , when I can see the might Big Blue Machine play . I guess they will play on the Friday or Saturday and then the Monday (Boxing day,) or the Tuesday, then the same the following weekend, so I could get two home games and hopefully a local away game in, plus have Christmas at "home" ?? On the other hand I could just go to Aruba and get the score on the compute fro the BBC, lol.

Been through the same thing and to the same disease.
I'd guess if anyone can get through this and keep positive it's your good self.

Hi, well she wouldn't have wanted me to sit at home brooding , it just seems so unfair, like the Gods sit on a cloud roll the dice and say you,you, him, her, and watching those little ones up there wwwooowww how those kids and those parents go through that I have no idea. I guess were slowly going to conquer it, or at least catch most of it early, I sure hope so. Sorry to hear that, hope you are doing OK now.

Crap disease; about time it was got rid of. Would love to meet before a Gills game, although I'm not sure it would make anyone feel better to watch one at the moment!

At the moment I don't think anyone deserves to be put through watching a Gills game! Mind you, we could be steam-rolling League 2 I suppose like last time (when we almost gave it all away a couple of months later! Lidbid, trying my reverse psychology tactic again......it worked last time!

I guess they will play on the Friday or Saturday and then the Monday (Boxing day,) or the Tuesday

I hear it's Pro Clean. They're in waste disposal.
