Amazing ,we only had 30% possession, but win 2-0, GOOD old Gillingham, up, up and away. I see now Samuel didn't come from Canada like I thought, he came from Blackburn, and had been at the Gills before, what a way to start , and wearing his lucky number 9 shirt.

A great three points,and a perfect debut for Samuel on his return scoring the two goals.Blackpool have spent quite a bit this summer,so it’s a good three points for us.Back to back league wins is good,and hopefully we can build on that away to Shrewsbury.
