Got to go back to the 80's to find the last time we won at Gillingham.. about time we fixed that stat..
I was at that game the day after Boxing day in 86, we took about 2,000 there. I have a 50% win rate at Priestfield after going there for the play off when we lost the same season.
Jills were 3rd and we were 7th and we won 3-1.
I have never been on the recieving end of so much crowd violence, abuse and trouble as that day, they were throwing bricks, glass bottles and washers (Pikeys couldnt afford coins) with their edges filed sharp at us from outside and inside the ground all game, they really hated us back then and I have no love lost for them too. That was the celery game when the Police confiscated about a truck load of celery from Town fans prior to KO.
Horrible set of fans and a horrible place to visit.
All because of the great Ray McHale in 79 (in front of a huge crowd), another of the most the most hate filled games I have ever witnessed on and off the pitch.
We owe them a thrashing.
I would probably go for this line up.
Brynn
Lavinier MacDonald Clayton Blake-Tracy
Reed
Khan Darcy
Wakeling Jephcott Williams
Providing Lavinier is fit enough to start otherwise Brennan or Hutton at RB.
