Match Thread: Gas vs Gillingham

Just out of interest how many times have you watched deon moore play?

I - & many others on the east, yes east terrace - could see that Little looked uncomfortable after his first challenge.
Either he walks a bit odd or the bench were oblivious

We played some decent stuff and looked in control until the change upfront.

It's the third tier pal. I think a few need a reality check regarding expectations.

The really poor attendance illustrates just how flakey some of our 'supporters' are.

I get so fed up reading about how crap Ollie Clarke is cos he isn't. I had a guy behind me moaning about him all the time he was on the pitch. But look at a lot of the time he gives the ball away. He's given an impossible pass from a team mate and then expected to work wonders with no onward pass cos everyone just stands there watching instead of making space for him. He holds onto the ball for as long as possible and then ends up losing it. Sometimes he has to pass into no mans land rather than give the ball away directly. And every time people start screaming about how crap he is. How about moaning at the rest of the team for not helping out. When he went off we completely lost hold of the midfield. Sercombe was ok for 5 mins and then was a waste of space. I didn't see him mark anyone. The only think he marked was open space. When Gillingham realised the midfield had weakened they started coming at us and gained confidence. Serconme is not the battler that Ollie is.

Great synopsis, hard to disagree and that is why the gate was less than 6400 tonight. It is easy to see why we have lossed 3500 supporters on the gate. 7 men in defence yet BRFC still give away soft goals when not picking up from crosses which them-self should have been prevented from coming in across the box. I thought Tyler played well tonight, took his goal well and then GC substituted him for the hapless Victor, really.

Said the same from the West, yes the West terrace. He didn’t look fit from the moment he came on. Shame as I
think he would be good for us if he could stay fit.  Definitely not like for like with Hare, who was a really good outlet on the right and has a great cross in him. Hope it’s not as bad as is looked for him.

It's really disappointing. A considerable number just seem to come out the woodwork when things are looking rosy or a big club comes to town.

Well done to the 6k who remain loyal.

Two points dropped for the second consecutive home game.

Was a poor performance to my mind. There wasn't much noteworthy in the first half, but Tyler took his chance very well.

We dominated the second half until the last ten minutes, but, without looking particularly like scoring, the style of football is very slow and unattractive. My son said he enjoyed the drive home more than the game!

Little had an absolute shocker when he came on, for the goal the guy was unmarked behind him for an age and he never looked; that goal was totally avoidable with just the awareness to look around him, there would have been plenty of time to call on the three centre backs to shift over and pick everyone up.

Not sure the league position is as great as some are making out, most teams have played less than us due to the bury fiasco and some cancellations for internationals, take a look at the games played column; anyway I'm not sure whether 12th counts as top or bottom half in a league of 23!

Got outplayed mostly, our possession retention was shambles, we had a few bottling challenges (leahy) thought we were poor tonight. Best player for me was sercombe and he only played 30 mins. We just give the ball away so cheaply.
