I read we played better in the second half, did you fall asleep and miss all the Gills shots and the excitement they created ?

This defeat made me feel like I did after losing to Burton.Another side that had not won many games,especially at their new home.We turned up and have given them the three points.The first half was poor especially,and as the game ticked on you think we will take a point with us not playing well,but they scored just before the 90 minute mark.Bonham should have been saving it really.

Portsmouth away next where we have had some good results,but we cannot play like Tuesday if we want to get something.
