Made a good team look very poor today. Our press was way too much for them.

Lots of good performances, the back 4 great.

Big shout out to Danny Amos for his stunning last ditch tackle in the first half.

Rodgers was superb today. Gillingham were bloody awful.

In my personal opinion, that was the most professional all round performance by everyone since we regained our league status, 100% effort by all the players in every department, if they did play like this every game i could see us making it to the playoffs. Well done to you all, including the fantastic support from those wonderful mariners fans.

Not a 100% perfect performance but not far short. When everything clicks and the gears go into place the players have shown what they can do. A few more performances like today and we will be promotion candidates.

The team is starting to gel, next Saturday will be a good test.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I could not go today.  Can we maintain this high level in most games?  We have injuries and missed out on new players. However, we can get loanees in.

Are we a mid table team or good enough to make a serious challenge for the playoffs? The picture might be clearer in a few games time.  

We have a solid base to build on.  We have a great CB partnership.  Only Wimbledon have conceded fewer league goals.

Well it looks good from down here , 2-0 up at half time !! At the interval at Chichester theatre.
So at the end of the show great to turn phone on to See FT a win and not throw away a lead .

We made it easy for once and had a two-goal margin to defend for a change. Their number 10 didn't have his shooting boots on in the first half, but they were no threat at all in the second. I didn't even grumble at the late substitutions.

Sounds a very encouraging performance. It would be wonderful if we could now progress and find some consistency. UTM

Quoted from moosey_club
Better tempo from us from the off, high press, energy deserved the lead.
Second half same story up until 60 mins when a couple of players started to fade.....Hurst has to make subs....yes we were comfortable but we had lost control of the game possession and territory wise....instead he waits until an absolutely fcked Rose dallies on a counter and they go straight up and give us a scare. 87 mins he brings on subs.....its just too late and leaves on a fcked Rose...risking injury were not necessary and were don't have cover.

Good 3 points...Good team performance...Still things to improve on.
.
re. the substitutions, Sir Alan said on radio Slumberhide that he himself wouldn't make any substitutions as it would keep the bench fit for Tuesdays game.Who would be a football manager, eh !!
