A tough game at Doncaster.They’re doing well,and we know Marquis will cause problems.Would be pleased with a point.

Would love us to come away with three points like we did at Sailorville a couple of weeks ago,it amazing how when your at the bottom of the table a draw doesn't seem to move you up much, I really am fed up with us having to play catch up all the time to get a mid table finish for the season.
Come on you GILLS, THREE BIG POINTS to move us up to 15th or 16th in the table, away from the bloody relegation zone. GO GILLS.

Absolutely right 1066

Just watched the goals on Sky news, seems we lost two points rather than got one ,but a points a point I guess. Every time Donny scored ,Gills players seemed to be laying all over the 16 yard box, had they been drinking booze at half time ??

Well we got a point,which looks undeserved even though we were 0-2 up.They had 33 hits to our 3,and peppered our goal.Just a shame that we went 2-3 up late on,only for a deflection in the 89th minute to make it 3-3.Pleased that Fuller scored his first ever Gills goal.We have two big games coming up this week against sides down there with us.
