Basically today, they are us and we are the other 15 or so good Premier League teams.

Cheers roy, i felt sorry for them today as most of the time they were chasing shadows, like weve been for most of the season, anyway good luck to gills for the rest of the season

Thanks Roy

Exactly my thoughts

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

Feels weird reading those comments. We know any prem team would’ve battered our line up today so just feels weird.

 

[davidblade]

Cheers Roy , the first time I’ve enjoyed reading your posts all season , shame it was against league 2 opposition

If they think that was a tough game it's to be hopes they never play one of the top ten in the Premier league. We can play a lot better than that and still struggle against the top teams. the gulf in class to the Championship is huge, to league two teams the Premier league is on a different planet. They can't compete as we can't compete with the likes of Man City, it is no real disgrace to them it is just how modern football is.

Wish granted! ( in advance )

How many fucking scarves did they sell? Must be Rusty levels.

Though I doubt they'll ever admit it or I'll ever be able to prove it, top 6 teams must see matches like that an opportunity to just enjoy a day off and have a kick about.

“If you switched keepers today, you switch the result” - some fans appreciate the GK who has made the most saves in the PL this season

Perhaps I'm alone here but I actually think they're being a bit harsh on themselves.

I'm not quite sure what they were expecting against a relatively strong side of ours, but they definitely caused us problems at times and could've had a goal or two if not for offside flags and fine margins.

That's not to slag us off or big them up to more than they were, just think there were some positives to take from the game from a Gills perspective.

"Let’s invest those scarf sales into a striker,keeper,right back & centre half please"

Like something some of our accounting gurus would say.

Yes ,they did ok at times, and if they'd scored while it was still 2-0, I think we would have got nervy.

Lovely stuff. They were giving it the billy big bollox before the game. Inbred wanks.

I agree. Really thought they would be in our faces and close us down more. Could have turned out different if they had, and they had their moments, but they stood back and let us play a bit, which made a nice change.

Thanks Roy.

Not the kind of things that are normally being said said about us. I like it.
