Title: gills Post by: Nomoreheroes on Monday, January 2, 2006, 01:59:37 It would appear that we have two six-pointers on the trot. I hope we don't come away from the two games with nothing !
NMH Title: gills Post by: Spud on Monday, January 2, 2006, 02:27:38 3rd on the lift front. :beers:
Title: gills Post by: STFC Village on Monday, January 2, 2006, 02:31:49 Is it still on the 14th?
If so, i'll be working the Friday and Saturday night :x I'll probably still go though, just get by with minimal sleep. Won't be able to train it in, so driving it is* *Don't rely on me giving you a lift in, i'll be leaving as late as possible and i could well be hazardous behind the wheel after 4 hours kip :o Title: gills Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, January 2, 2006, 02:48:46 if plenty of people are going by train then i'm up for that, just don't fancy sitting on me tod.
Title: gills Post by: DV on Monday, January 2, 2006, 10:56:53 Uundecided.....might be driving, only might be though....
Title: gills Post by: Bennett on Monday, January 2, 2006, 12:07:04 what date is it?
gillingham is pretty close to london isn't it? Title: gills Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, January 2, 2006, 12:35:36 Quote from: "sonicyouth" if plenty of people are going by train then i'm up for that, just don't fancy sitting on me tod. We are on the ....... out of Swindon. It also stops at Didcot. You're welcome to tag along if you like, probably better if you have another mate with you. After the game we will probably all do separate things when we get back to Victoria. Title: gills Post by: Bennett on Monday, January 2, 2006, 13:37:42 i researched and somehow the trains arent' going from london to gillingham. it's a train then bus! just gotta blag the day off work, actually they owe me a few days leiu for doing so many fucking hours over xmas
Title: gills Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, January 2, 2006, 13:38:51 spot on, may have to do that. i think dave and whits are on about going on the train as well.
Title: gills Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, January 2, 2006, 14:07:13 Yeah, the bus ride is a pain. Looks about 20 miles, but 45 odd minutes! But just think of it as extra cheap drinking time. Besides which I have grave doubts that many pubs will be open in Jillingham, after chatting to a few who know the area saturday. Im up for getting in the ground early with in being pay on the turnstile. Anyone know what allocation we actually have yet?
I bought 4 group savers this morning. (swindon - jillingham) Bargain at £15.85 each. You save £7 by splitting the ticket at Didcot. Title: gills Post by: Bennett on Monday, January 2, 2006, 14:08:47 it's £12 for me to get there from laaandan
Title: gills Post by: Leggett on Monday, January 2, 2006, 14:14:01 bennett son, do it! i've got the 13th off for Stretch, so i'll bowl into london on the train or summat, then head on?
Title: gills Post by: Bennett on Monday, January 2, 2006, 14:15:14 oh fuck fuck fuck. i'm going to have to suck a gooden to get 13th evening and then 14th off
Title: gills Post by: sonicyouth on Monday, January 2, 2006, 14:56:32 fuck it i'll go by train, you coming leggett?

Title: gills Post by: Spencer_White on Monday, January 2, 2006, 16:10:22 Quote from: "sonicyouth" fuck it i'll go by train, you coming leggett? how many of you leaving from didcot spencer? Il be leaving from Swindon. Think it stops at Didcot 8.50am odd. As for how many, thats classified. Spuddy, good choice.

Title: gills Post by: Spud on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 14:48:14 Quote from: "fatbury" heard there is gonna be trouble at this one! Yes the Trains being late have always been a problem and creates trouble for the frustrated passengers. Title: gills Post by: walrus on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 14:48:19 I'll 99% be there, though I'm swaying between driving and getting the train, especially as it is somewhat of a "derby" supposedly...
Title: gills Post by: larwood on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 14:58:36 Quote especially as it is somewhat of a "derby" supposedly... Poor Gills fans.No one hates them so they have to invent a derby against us which is based on a couple of games where it 'kicked off' and losing a play-off game. Personally i don't give a shit about them,its just another game that we need to get something from.But i can see some fans falling for the hype. Title: gills Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 17:46:08 I like it when the other team hates us.
Hopefully after the game they will hate us even more. Title: gills Post by: Leggett on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 18:06:41 bennett, if you can get the 13th off too, u gonna stay in swindon after the stretch gig?
Title: gills Post by: Johno on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 19:04:31 i should be going on sas.

I'll be watching from the pub Title: gills Post by: Whits on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 20:27:10 doesn't the open stand appeal to you?
http://dspace.dial.pipex.com/town/park/yfh45/gills30.jpg looks nice and warm :? Title: gills Post by: Sussex on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 20:36:36 Going with my sisters fiancé who won't go in the away bit (He's Gill's, so fair enough), and apparently they make away fans walk virtually to the station after the game so as not to stumble across Gills fans, making it a bit of a 'mare to meet up after the game if we go in different stands.
I predict a smack in the mouth :| Title: gills Post by: blinkpip on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 21:36:48 I was speaking to a hard-core Gillingham fan earlier at work(and is part of the Gills yob's)
And he insisted that the Gills fans have something planned for all the Swindon fans. There will be definitely some blood and revenge. Just be careful guys, this is the game they are all up for. They aren't interested in the game. Title: gills Post by: adje on Tuesday, January 3, 2006, 21:41:38 They are pathetic-scared of their own mothers!

Title: gills Post by: magicroundabout on Wednesday, January 4, 2006, 20:57:50 reading this on Football Ground Guides it sounds like it could be interesting:
Quote Away fans are housed in part of the Brian Moore Stand where around 1,500 supporters can be accommodated. Like last season the stand is of the temporary variety i.e. the type that you would see around the 18th hole at the British Open Golf Championship, although it is of a good size and height, plus the views of the playing action are fine. Unlike most temporary stands though the facilities are surprisingly good, being of a permanent nature behind the stand. However it is uncovered so be prepared to get wet! One unusual aspect of visiting Priestfield Stadium is that away supporters have to walk down a very narrow terraced street to reach the away entrance, or if coming from adjacent streets down very tight alley ways. However, there is never normally any problems with this although after the game the Police sometimes close of some of the surrounding streets to keep fans apart. :twisted: Title: gills Post by: Spud on Friday, January 6, 2006, 05:57:05 "Michelle Dixon, the landlady of the 'Livingstone Arms' on Gillingham Road informs me; 'Our pub is known as an "Away Supporters" pub and is situated approximately 100 yards from the away turnstiles. The atmosphere within the pub is both warm and friendly and there is even complimentary bar food laid on for fans. Otherwise you can purchase a hot pie with your pint, or visit the local chip shop".
This Pub sounds a good shout for next Saturday. Title: gills Post by: Spencer_White on Friday, January 6, 2006, 07:11:55 Yeah, aparently she goes round ever single rivals site, advertising the pub to away fans who are comming to Gillingham.
But hasnt done so for us! Well yet, anyway.
