Incredible, who knew that, I bet there was not ONE percent of the fans who were at the West Ham game would know that ? That was probably THE, I say THE, fact of the season so far, keep up the good work Mr G, and lets hope for a 3 pointer this afternoon. Still shaking my head in amazement, how did you know that ?

I guess shared points against another one of the top teams is as good as we should expect, the one thing I have got out of our recent form against Oxford, Ipswich, Sunderland, Portsmouth and the likes, is that when we grab that that 5th or 6th spot for a play off place we can hold our own against anyone.
Another point for the good guys, a tough spell in our schedule is now kind of over for a while, and I expect if Evans and the boys are serious about getting into the top 6 then the next two games against Rochdale and Shrewsbury who don't have a win between them for donkeys years should bring us 6 points , a point against Burton will be fine, then Blackpool who are falling to pieces not a win in 5 games, a home game against Donny must be worth a point or more and then THREE BIG points against Southend who are already dead and buried,
By this time next month I can see us sitting with between 46 and 50 points, and that will put us up there in the top 8 looking at a play off place square in the eyes.
Go Gills and GO EVANS, keep the pedal to the metal and get us promoted this year, Scally will let the moths out of his wife's purse next time were in the Championship,he won't want to be back here in the 3rd division again, after rubbing shoulders with the likes of the Chairmen of the almost big boys league.
