Saturday 2nd
Match day - Sunderland v Gills (League 1)

Sunday 3rd
Sunderland's late winner meant that the Gills had conceded a 90th minute goal for a second successive game. This came after they had not let in a last minute / stoppage time goal in the previous 19 games and just 3 in the other 46 games this season.

Monday 4th
Sunderland enjoyed 80% possession in their game against the Gills, beating the 76% for Bolton in the 2-2 draw as the most by any side at home to the Gills this season. In their away games this season, the Gills are averaging 37.3% possession.

Tuesday 5th
Accrington's consolation goal against the Gills was the first goal scored by an opposition side in 70 games after the Gills had secured all 3 points. The Gills have scored 3 consolation goals in their last 19 games including both of their goals in the 2-7 against Oxford.

Wednesday 6th
Sunderland hit the woodwork twice in their home game against the Gills. It was the 14th time this season that opposition sides had struck the post or bar, matching the total for the Gills this season.

Thursday 7th
The Gills have scored 4 goals in the final 10 minutes (plus stoppage time) of their league games. Sunderland's goal was the 19th they have conceded, the most in the division and 6 more than the next worst side. The Gills conceded 12, 4, 9 and 9 final 10 minute goals in the last 4 seasons.

Friday 8th
The Gills have scored 31 goals in their 41 league matches and had scored 56 at the same stage last season. In the 3 most recent relegation seasons, the number of goals the Gills had scored after 41 games was 42, 39 and 40.
