Scunthorpe

[Poshgill]

Well, I'm sorry but I won't be going to the game on Saturday. It really does not excite me as a game and funnily enough, I have a sneeking suspicion that Scunthorpe, with their new manager, might just nick it. Lets face it, apart from the masive commitment of an all day event for me, I cannot justify the expense. It doesn't mean I won't be cheering the Gills on, its just thta it will be from the comfort of my arm chair and watching Jeff Stelling on Sky Sport! I will be there Tuesday night though as I think Cheltenham will be the better game.

I have my tickets for Sat, but am also more excited by Tuesday, which I believe to be a very important test for us. If we beat the teams around us, even at this early stage, it seems like six points as they are obviously not gaining points from those games. If they beat us however, the whole league tightens up and our position doesn't look so good. At the moment, for example, our win at Port Vale is making all the difference. The cup match is a distraction, and at least I don't have to panic for 90 mins, but the important business starts again on Tuesday. I have several friends coming with me to take advantage of the offer and it is good to see people who have lost their interest recently wanting to come back. A good performance may encourage some of them to become regulars again, which has to be a good thing. A good cup run is fun, but getting out of this horrible league is vital, especially after the start we have made.

I keep saying the same. Really don't know why! Colchester and Chelmsford I could understand but Cheltenham.......?

Call me a thick pussy (now there's a visual) but I just don't follow the "chelmsford" thread. Where does Posh say Chelmsford?

Anyway...I share the views of others re Sat. Frankly if someone said-lose 5.0 sat and win 1.0 tuesday I 'd take it. The cup doesn't interest me except if we get a bumper 3rd round tie packing Priestfield to the gunnalls? and all that goes with it.
I believe we will edge it with Scunthorpe because they look poor this season and if we were already in div 1 ((where our current squad deserves to be) We would be looking at this as a good home win.. So 1.0.
Much more important is Tuesday and NOT to get any injuries on Sat.
