With Gillingham V Rotherham United now televised, what is Gillingham's record for live televised matches, Because I think Gillingham V Wolves in 2014 was the last time Gillingham won a televised fixture ???

Hell back in the 70's they lost just about every time they were on Southern TV. The game would be played on a Saturday and not shown until Sunday and they still couldn't win even though that had 24 hours to try again.

Most of those were evening kick offs though and we didn't have a particularly good record under the lights. This being a lunch time Saturday game kind of bucks that trend really.
