- The Gills have only faced Blackpool 35 times, winning 10 whilst Blackpool have won 13.
- The Gills 1-0 defeat at Blackpool 2 seasons ago ended a run of 4 consecutive draws there. It has been a run of 5 draws and 6 defeats there since their only win there (April 1987).
- Blackpool's 1-0 win at Peterborough ended a run of 3 straight league defeats. It was their 2nd league win in 9, 1 fewer than the Gills.
- The Gills have conceded 2 goals in their last 4 away league games but Blackpool have conceded 6 in their last 2 home league games.
- After 5 wins and a draw at home in the league, Blackpool have since lost their last 2 (2-3 to Portsmouth and 1-3 to Wigan).
- Blackpool's 364 minutes they have led at home is the longest in League 1 so far this season - an average of 45.5 minutes in every home game.

A tough game,and a very long trip especially for a Tuesday night.Credit to the fans that have sacrificed a whole working day for it.If we can take a point home we will be happy.

As long as we stay out of that dam relegation zone then I will be one happy camper, lol. Bury have a tough one against the Shrews, and Nthptn and Plymouth are playing each, so a win for the Gills tonight could see us up by 3 points from the others in the danger zone, GO GILLS.

A very good point! Blackpool sounded the better Team,they probably should have killed the game.They took Vassell off and we brought on Nugent to play upfront.Eaves scoring a 90th minute equaliser,and could have won it late on too.Massive credit to the 145 fans who were rewarded for making the long trip mid-week.
