- The Gills are unbeaten in the last 6 against Northampton winning 5 of them. Town were unbeaten in the 6 before, also winning 5.
- After 7 home defeats in 8 games, Northampton have since won 5 home games from 9 under Justin Edinburgh but none in the last 3.
- Northampton are win-less (4 defeats) in their last 7 matches. They have scored 4 and conceded 12 in them.

I will save you the time Bubba. Only fact anyone needs to know GILLINGHAM are staying up, and even if Vale win tonight there is no way on Gods Green Earth that Vale beat Fleetwood on Sunday, a win and a Bolton Loss and Fleetwood are home and dry, going to the place I had hoped the Gills would be going instead of them.
Although I can not see Bolton losing to Pe'tboro, I sure as hell can not see Fleetwood losing to POOP VALE , so this weekend end I see Gillingham winning 2-1, Bolton winning 3-1 and Fleetwood winning 5-1 ,then we will have all summer to watch the cricket, and dream of great things for the Mighty Gills next season, hopefully after watching film of Fulham through the summer, love the way they have played this year.
I hear our local hero Mr Lidbit Cowdry has been called up to play for England in the first three ICC Championship games starting in June, against India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, way to go MR.L., we will all be cheering for you.
What,what ,not mens cricket , Englands Women, my bad, oh well don't say anything, Mrs. L says he has lovely legs so maybe he will pass for one of them Trans Granulated People, who can use both bathrooms, always wondered how the women ones sit on those urinals to pee , quiet a balancing act is that.

So this is it the final game of the season,and as many predicted it comes down to the JED game.It had to happen didn`t it.Port Vale winning last night means we wont get the relaxing game that we had hoped for.My heart says we will escape the drop,but through Fleetwood not ourselves.Northampton have nothing to play for,but JED would love to send us down after we sacked him.This will be my first trip to Sixfields,but i`m not expecting us to get anything with our poor defending and tactics.Hopefully we can sneak to safety.

Northampton have not won in SEVEN games, Glasgow is already doing what he did at Gillingham, he's the month of March, comes in like a Lion, goes out like a lamb. He still goes home of a night time and works on which Gillingham speedy right footed wing back he should have played on the left wing or in goal.
The players at Nothampton are not going to play any better for him because he got fired at Gillingham, all they wish is the game was Friday night so they could start their summer vacations a couple of days early.

We turn teams on poor form into world beaters (Oldham, Coventry, Swindon, Bury....) the list goes on and on. We are either likely to keep a clean sheet or do Town a favour (more likely). Fleetwood will expect Bolton to win so I think will ease off and protect players for the play-offs after only just getting key players back. Vale could nick it at the end if Fleetwood hear Bolton are winning so it's a dangerous place to be in. It was exactly the same in 2010 when we all said not all can go against us yet it did - the only difference this time is that we are point worse off than last time.

She's ill on the floor currently!! She better be well before Sunday, can't be having those sort of interruptions over lunch when I am getting regular palpitations every time Jeff Stelling mentions an update on Sky Sport's Soccer Special!

Only the 4th clean sheet of the season (3rd in the league) and Nelsonn back in goal. That was horribly nervy!!! 6 minutes between our game and Port Vale's game finishing, and it felt like an hour. Found myself screaming at the TV for the game to finish. I so expected Vale to score and send us down and they looked they might athough after our final whistle Fleetwood had a goal ruled out and tweeted to say the ball was down the right end as far as Fleetwood, Gills and Bury fans were concerned!

Can rebuild now and I would love it if Kenny Jackett took over next season.
