We seem to have bought a lot of players in, or is that just my imagination,but are any of them any good ? I understand there all freebies, but what the hell's the point of bringing in guys that can't find a place in a team like Tranmere or whatever ? Now Ogilvie hasn't signed a contract, why not,if he isn't going to sign then get rid of him now , no point him playing is there,we need to put someone on the pitch we know will be with th Gills all season suely ?
Then I read the fans are having trouble buying seasons tickets because the system is " complicated ", I don't know if I should laugh or cry, lol, I laughed, I guess it is what I have come t expect from the Gills. Go Gills beat my second favorite team Norwich.

Did you go to the game,if you did would you have said there was more than say a 1,000 people there ? Get Mr. Lidbit on the phone and tell him to get down to St.Lawrence in Canterbury, and bowl a few googlies, that bunch of clowns they seem to have playing down there this year appear to be clueless when it comes to playing any form of cricket.
