Whens that well traveled wanna be player we just got from QPR going to do anything ?, lol. I think I read the draw is tomorrow night I hope we get a Championship side at home and kick there butts all over the park..

Deja vu! I feared for us again after we went 1-0 down,and then had the injuries to Ehmer and Dack.Once Cody equalised it did feel like there would be one winner.Thomas coming on seemed the difference again,two good finishes and he scared them again! 3 goals in 2 games is brilliant,and we have a fantastic finisher here.Through to the next round,and we could get Chelsea

Bring 'em on , ' bring em on, we need some good cup runs and if we don't get "the runs" at least let us go out in a home game against a big team and a full house made up of Gills Fans and wanna be Gills fans, who last went to see Gillingham play at Wembley.

Just remember Jet has only been at the club for 5 days and has played 2 games. He isn't 100% fit and will take time to settle in

[CadburyMan]

Why do you suggest he might not be fit?

[Garawa]

Something Edinburgh hinted at in an interview. Can't remember what he said and it may have more to do with lack of preparation seeing as he only arrived a few hours before Saturday. Not saying he is unfit but maybe 90 or 95% where he should be had he been preparing for a first team game for his parent club. Resting him until the 63rd minute in the second game of the season maybe suggests that.
