Superb defensive performance, bodies blocking on the rare occasions they did threaten.

We’ve no one to fear in this league - no one is going to run away with it. Tasty prospect on Saturday…

Quoted from gtfc_chris


Have to imagine the 3 red crosses on this are Yoda, GrimPol and Male Private Nale. How dare we go and win three on the bounce to give us something to be happy about!!


I'm looking forward to a thread tomorrow on something random from Yoda because he doesn't have performances to whinge about to call for the manager's head.

What can say about that keeper performance. Did everything right from 1st minute to the last,  hardly a save to make thanks to all the blocks but he just had that Futcheresque look of cool, calm and collected. Well done everyone though.

Gillingham forum is overwhelmingly complimentary about our defence tonight, rather than just the usual criticism of their own team. Nice to read that as often these things can get rather bitter!

10 out of 10 all round !

A proper professional defensive hold over the current league leaders.

Bookings showed that we were not going to be bullied out of the game.

Great chasing all over the pitch to deny them time to settle and play.

Good double covering against both their wingers.

Every penny earned tonight by the 15 who got on the pitch.

Hope that Green going off is only a precaution - got his steps in tonight.

Just need to do the same on Saturday. Full house expected??

(Please don't boo Harry on his return, he gave everything while he was here !! )

Ref was great, we were great, khouri and the 2CB’s outstanding

Thought Pyke looked slim and sharp too

Absolutely fantastic performance by Town.  We battled and pressed them high up the pitch all night.  There is absolutely no doubt that we deserved that result.  A really good team effort, with a special mention for Smith who must have only met his teammates yesterday.

Superb. We've shown we can play football this season but that was showing the ability to grind out three points in a completely different way. Defensively rock solid.

I know it's early days and it's not going to be rosy every week but really excited about the future of this team.

Great team performance never looked like losing the game.

Jackson Smith looks a very decent keeper he was never in trouble and never dropped the ball .

Gillingham did not look like a team top of the league that's because we would not let them.

Bring on the Donny it's time we spanked them .

One thing Pyke does add to a relatively slight team is some strength. Seems a very powerful lad though he's not of massive size. I wonder if he'll perhaps play a bigger role than any of us expected at the start of the season?

Khouri is looking consistently good so I'm wondering how the midfield will line up when Thompson returns? Similarly, McEachran and Green. Nine of them really deserve to be dropped, but you can't imagine Artell won't play Thompson when he's fit.
