[Archived] Gillingham away 17.3.18

[G Somerset Rover]

You look at our bench pre-game and think ‘yeah that’s not bad’ yet we continue to bring on the absolute lummox that is Samuel. Go on, prove me wrong Dominic. Do something.

How's Whittingham doing on the wing?

Like watching a young Stuart Ripley.

How young?

Scored 2 or more in 12 of last 14 games and that’s without the managers input? 

more by luck than design.

having someone like DG up front and playing the balls into winnable areas will always bring a positive.

Add to that Armstrong (who's been quiet today).

TM plays percentages and gets lucky because of the poor opposition.

As a foetus.

[Tom]

Not happening is it? ?

[DE.]

I think Samuel just blasted the ball onto the motorway.

[Husky]

It's a good job Shrewsbury have gone as this game reminds me a little of the worst game in footballing history when we lost 0-1 at home to Bournemouth one wet midweek night.

It looks like one of those games where we could play until next Tuesday and not score.

I was thinking pre-teen. You've gone pre-birth.

So I guess managing a football club is that easy, I look forward to free corporate when you take Pep’s job after tonight.

Heres me thinking a well drilled and organised Gillingham side have out worked us, and worked us out! Just had the luck tonight I guess.

[OJRovers]

Why did we sign Bell if he's not going to play him?

He's absolutely class

Too late to pray for snow?

Samuel’s shot just came back down with some on top!

[Al]

Was Dack injured when he came off or was it just a precaution?

[blueboy3333]

LT: 'Ball falls at the feet of Samuel on the edge of the box but he didn't look confident as he drags a shot wide'

One Of Mogga's 'boys'.

[Tom]

Well we had room for one slip up - looks like that could be no room for any slip ups now!

why play Armstrong on the wing?

why bring on Samuel when he's done absolutely nothing since coming back from injury

why not play Bell after spending 300k on him

Why only play 1 up front

my opinion of TM hasn't changed since Oldham away... he is insipid, without passion and worries too much about err 'well drilled and organised' teams.

Bristol Rovers Saturday, will be a much harder game than today. Play like we have for the past 2.5 games and we’re in for a Plymouth - no two ways about it.

[blueboy3333]

A draw isn't the worst result in the world if we hang on. 5 points clear with a better goal difference and Shrews have only 1 game in hand.

If they win on Thursday though it’s squeaky bum time again. I know we’ve been near faultless for some time but we really, really need to pick the performances back up if we’re going to go up automatically. Pretty pathetic now for 2.5 games.

[AdamRochina]

Dire performance and dosent bode well for the future games ..really don't think we are gonna get over the line 

[davulsukur]

0-0 full time

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

We have no goals on the bench. Only player who deserves sup appearances is Nuttall
