Gillingham v Notts

[joethegill]

Our home record against the bottom 10 for anyone vaguely interested is 5 wins, 3 draws and only 1 defeat to Scunthorpe with 10 men. Doesn't mean anything though so not sure why I brought it up.

 

[joethegill]

Sorry Gills but Notts simply MUST stay in L1.

It could be more or less our 'local' game next season, so yes, I sadly agree. Rather them than Crewe!

It's fine, we wish you still had tater peeler as manager to send you down to the abyss too!

 

[DarkSithLord]

Attwell reffing the game. The man literally owes us 3 points after that farcical Jones sending off that got over-turned.

Rather see county down than orient

 

[Daveyjames]

Tricky one for me this. Quite like to see County stay up, but this a crap league for local away games for us being so northern based. Incredibly the closest 3 we do have are all in the bottom 3, Orient, Colchester and Creepy, so really would like two of them to stay up.

On the pitch, since Taylor got the sack, it really does depend on which Gillingham turn up; the one that beat top teams Franchise 4-2, Sheff U 2-0, Swindon 3-0, or the one that lost at home to Barnsley and Fleetwood.

Last season we drew at Oldham 1-1 which saved us, I don't think a point will be good enough this time round.
I have gone for the draw but hope that we can get a couple of goals to give us a bit of breathing space.
I like how Moniz is getting the team playing now but it does leave us open for counters which we all know, with our 50 year olds playing we can't cope with.

After more encouraging noises coming from Swindon in the last couple of days I am going for us, Orient and Crawley/Cov to draw, thus safety

We have a lot of pace with the likes of McGlashan, McDonald, Dack, Dickenson and Bell, so playing on the break suits us pretty well. We struggle against teams that come and defend for 90, which obviously would be a rather risky strategy for you to try.

Will have sold our allocation by lunchtime by the looks of it.

 

[RavenBish]

Give us some more tickets. 1,300 sold so far

 

[jacobncfc]

Aye haven't got mine yet, wasn't expecting them to go quickly.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

Will be nice to see some fans in the golf stand for a change.
I love these games where the opposition fans are shitting bucketloads and you really don't give a fuck.
Most enjoyable.

 

[RavenBish]

Sold out. Give us the lot you pricks

 

[jacobncfc]

Fair play, thought 1,400 might be enough, wasn't expecting to sell out in three hours.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

I'm sure you will get more.

 

[RavenBish]

Fucking better, I was planning on making a decision tomorrow, never thought we sell them all in 3 hours ffs

 

[Crewelad87]

Fair play Notts fans very good support, I hope you stay up as long as its not at our expense.

 

[RavenBish]

Me too, you're the only team we can beat

 

[william death]

Gillingham resting a few?

We've been tinkering for the last 6 games or so, not as if it'll just be for this game. I'd expect Norris to start up front, as well as Dickenson and Muldoon given another chance. Couldn't call the whole team though, we have a fair few options all over the place.

On the extra tickets for Notts, you'll probably get offered the whole 3k, and depending on home ticket sales may even get a block of the Gordon Road stand (approx 200/250ish)

We won't need any more than 3k, I'm sure of that.

What's the point of playing Muldoon, if he's a loanee? Chance to sign him in summer?

Dunno, haven't seen him play at home yet but doubt we'll retain him. If it was up to me I'd go:

G.Morris
Egan - Legge - Ehmer
McGlashan - A.Morris - Loft - Bell
Dack
Marquis - McDonald

But like I say, I would expect Norris in for either of the front two, Dickenson in for Bell and possibly Muldoon for Morris in midfield.

 

[RavenBish]

Another 600 in sale tomorrow. Gillingham are doing a great job of making this as tedious as possible

Yeah, it's our fault you're in this predicament.

 

[RavenBish]

No idea what our predicament has to do with ticketing stuff...what a strange comment. You'll have sent us 3 allocations that will sell quickly and where people have queued for ages and not got them (they'll get a ticket so I'm hardly bothered about them though) and all 3 basically amount to 2/3 of your away end. Just give us the lot, make it all ticket and we'll send the rest back, Oldham didn't find it too difficult. Fuck sake, why do people have to take everything personally when it comes to their club.

Like I said earlier in the thread, we have season ticket holders in that stand. It makes absolute sense to see how our own ticket sales go over the next couple of days to see if we can re-locate these ST holders into another stand, or if (as it's the last game of the season, and therefore the home crowd should be higher than normal) they are unable to do so and have to keep the ticket holders in the Brian Moore. Home fans do take priority - we're giving you more than teams normally get as it is, and if you sell them chances are you'll get more. No need to get upset about it.

On a different note, it's the sweeps festival in Rochester this weekend, so traffic is likely to be pretty heavy around all of Medway, but it does offer the chance for a bit of a piss up if you are so inclined.

 

[GFCSludge]

See away thread, another 654 tickets and that's your lot.

Pies, get down Sweeps festival after the game if you can, a fuck ton of real ale, hog roasts, live music etc. It's a couple of stops on the train to Rochester, highly recommend it

 

[PuB]

If you stay up I can't think of anything better than an evening in Rochester to celebrate, if you go down it might cheer you up a bit.

 

[Ninety Per Cent]

Good luck Notts.
