I only saw the result but it looks a good result on paper.No change in the table from Tuesday night so onwards and upwards.Good to see Marquis score again.It`s a point and a point closer to safety/a play-off push.

Probably a fair result. Another game we scored in and 4 points from Swindon away and Doncaster on an upward run can't be bad. Furthermore Swindon beat Notts County at home 3-0 today that result is even better. The wind controlled the match, the players couldn't really get going a lot and Peter Lloyd summed it up perfectly for me after the game saying he felt both sets of players had left a lot on the pitch from Tuesday.

There has been criticism from the manager about the playing surface at Priestfield. Last season I felt our pitch looked good considering so many had been turned to mud. We then replaced it in the summer and haven't had as much rain or gone as long yet is looking very threadbare. Considering what we paid for it that has to be a concern and I can't see why to be honest.

Haven`t we also changed groundsman as well this season? The pitch definitely does not look as good as it did last season.

Marry juana, guys probably got one of them wacky tobacky farms growing alongside the real turf,got to make a pay day some how, lol.
Good result today I guess seeing as there a pretty good away side , some tricky games coming up this month, dam BC again, then Chestfld away, Colchstr at home and Crawley away, the last two games we should be able to pick up maximum points from, but my bet is we pick up the points from the first two games, we seem to rise to the occasion and fall flat on our asses against the lower teams in the division.
Think a top 12 finish is about the best we can see this year, so on wards and upwards next season.

I have voted for John Marquis as Gillingham's Man Of The Match as John Marquis scored Gillingham's equaliser before half time, Marquis work-rate, commitment and one touch layoffs are all very effective and I thought that everything good attacking wise went through John Marquis today.

I also thought that John Marquis was very unlucky not to have scored having created a attacking move all by himself with a double dummy, which completely tricked The Doncaster Rovers Defender, and John Marquis's shot across the face of goal was turned around the post by Stephen Bywater, the challenge Gillingham now face is making sure that John Marquis sign's for Gillingham on a permanent basis in the summer, which will prove to be even more difficult the more goals that John Marquis scores for Gillingham between now and the end of the season.
