Guess this game has the word draw written all over it, and with Gillingham playing this lack luster football I can see the games against Doncaster, Oldham, Blackpool and Plymouth going the same way, which is a shame because finishing in the top half of the table would look a lot better than sitting in 16th or 17th place and give us a leg up to start next season.
I can't help thinking if I was a player looking for a team this summer and my agent gave me a call and said Gillingham are interested in you and so are Peterborough, Gillingham finished in 18th place last year, but there OK, Peterborough finished just outside the promotion race in 8th place, and there going to be strong contender again this year, I know where I would go,even if I didn't know where Peterborough was on the map.
Come of Gillingham wake up ,GO GILLS ,LETS FINISH STRONG, keep some interest there till the end and give us hope for next season.

Gills make the short trip across to Essex tomorrow afternoon,with us hoping we can bounce back from the two defeats recently.Southend got hammered at Plymouth on Saturday,so hopefully we can get at them early.Parker back available will be a boost.1,400+ Gills fans expected to make the trip will help the players.Lets hope for a win that puts us on 52 points.

That has to be the worst half of football I've ever listened to. And to make matters worse, twitter was running 7 minutes behind to make everything that was happening utterly confusing!

OK OK I fell for it, April Fool joke right, felt they could not play April Fools jokes on Easters Holy Sunday so there doing them today, ONE SHOT, NONE ON GOAL after 75 minutes,has the manager lost the team, has Space Satellite gone all " I am the manager,you will do what I say" like he is something special, if this is the case cut him loose NOW and bring in Evans.

Woeful. Clearly one of those days when nothing goes right.

4 down on 39 minutes
2 goals ruled out for offside
Played the entire second half with 10 men
Luke O'Neill went off injured
Only 1 shot at goal other than the 2 for offside and none on target

A lot of work to do from this now after 3 league defeats in a row, the first time for just over a year.

I could understand us not having more than one shot away to Manchester City, Inter Milan, of Barcelona, but Southend ,even with 10 men on the field we should have been able to manage more than ONE shot and two disallowed goals. Turd defeat in a row,five yellows and then a red ,and almost another red, me thinks there is something very wrong at GFC ?

I only saw the score when I got home,but the first 18 minutes looked to have killed us.Then to go 4-0 down and have Martin sent off it`s just about damage limitation for the second half. Feel for the 1,307 fans who backed the Team.1 shot none on target is really poor,just got to hope there is a big response at home to Doncaster on Saturday.
