Saturday 1st
Match day - GILLS v Sutton Utd (League 2)

Sunday 2nd
The Gills equalled their English Football League record for 4 home league blank sheets in January 2022 and March 2022. This season, this was equalled again against Mansfield and the 90th minute winner against Sutton prevented a new unwanted record.

Monday 3rd
The Gills 1-0 wins over Rochdale and Sutton saw goals scored in the 9th and 90th minutes respectively. In all competitions, there were 5 home games without a goal. 620 minutes (just over 10 hours) of football at Priestfield passed without a Gills goal.

Tuesday 4th
Match day - GILLS v Brighton & Hove Albion U23s (Football League Trophy, Southern Group A - Match 2)

Wednesday 5th
The Gills scored their 5th goal of the season against Sutton from 14 games played. They saw the same number of "goals" ruled out in that game and the 3 before after none occurred across the whole of last season. Mandron has endured 4 of the 7 disallowed goals this season.

Thursday 6th
Alex MacDonald's stoppage time goal against Sutton was the first goal the Gills' fans saw at the Rainham End since Jack Tucker's goal against Wycombe back in April, 9 games ago. The Brighton match made it 3 in 2 games.

Friday 7th
The Gills managed 6 shots on target against Sutton, their highest in a league match this season, with 5 of those coming after the 86th minute! This meant the Gills no longer had the fewest shots on target in the league or the worst shooting accuracy (now both Hartlepool).
