Radio Sheff said the ko was back at 3 pm?

Ground's running on the backup generator. I believe they want the game to start at 3pm because they're worried that the generator might run out of juice before the electricity comes back on.

Blimey, 47 in here today! I noticed a good few twitching when Gills scored, reckon we've got some away fans in here. No need to hide, we're a friendly bunch in the Lucky Pint  :boxing:

I feel calmer going behind with Ferguson in charge than any of our previous managers.

The points are allocated at the end of the game and the players seem to realise that under Ferguson.

Ah, Middleton now on the bench - I thought we'd missed a trick there with not having a sub for the bench ready.

Morning everyone. Not a great start.
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham
Post by: Bristol Red Rover on January 16, 2016, 03:27:31 pm
A tough test, but like DRNaith said, it doesn't feel so bad since we've had Fergie as general.
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham
Post by: Lipsy on January 16, 2016, 03:28:41 pm
Agree about Fergie. Dickov was all about drawing and losing, so every blummin' point was a prisoner. Now I half expect us to come back or - at the very least - win the next game. It's a weird sensation, this.

So we're a man short on the bench I take it ? BBC has only 6 names for sub's.

I'm confused - who replaced Main on the bench? Pretty sure 7 were mentioned on Player - BBC still behind?

Absolute rubbish so far. Best we can hope for at the moment is that the diesel for the generator runs out.
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham
Post by: jonnydog on January 16, 2016, 03:54:41 pm
Worst performance under Fergie so far, in my opinion.

Defence shaky, Keegan being found out, Evina looks like he's seen David Bowie in the crowd, and Main is playing worse than Jimmy Saville in a crèche.

All in all shite, give em a bollocking Fergie!!!
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham

Could it be anything to do with us playing the top of the league?
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham
Post by: RobTheRover on January 16, 2016, 03:57:15 pm
Lots of huff and puff,  but the final ball has either been lacking or the shot has been high/wide. Gillingham keeper not had a save of note to make. 

We've had the better of possession and territory though,  so just need to Polish up on that finishing. Gillingham are organised and strong but I think there is still a win in this for us.

Not important in the grand scheme of things so soz for keeping on, but that's only 6, as i said earlier & Middleton was one of the original sub's anyway. So we must be a man short !?!?
Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham

Mandeville has come on, so he must have been added to the bench

Title: Re: TLO doncaster v Gillingham
Post by: DRNaith on January 16, 2016, 04:25:22 pm
Main was taken off the bench to replace Tyson before the game started, THUS is probably how we have 6 on the bench.

Is that how it works Ref? Can't add one before kick off? Also rumoured that Middleton isn't on the bench.

Bloody heck. I popped in the shower to get cleaned up to go out with the outlaw, and I come back to find we've scored. That's the second time that I've buggered off and we've scored in recent weeks. That's settled it, back into the shower I go.  :scarf:

20 mins of fame for Stewart, despite the sorrow of missing him for the rest of this game, hope he's okay in the end. Williams now one of the supermen, is there time for more?

Post by: IDM on January 16, 2016, 05:11:16 pm
Bunch of dirty gets were Gillingham, and the ref let them get away with it.  Thought they were going to do one on us until our first goal.

How their defender didn't get a yellow for the foul leading up to that goal or for kicking the ball away beats me.

A good draw, feels like a win.  Shame about the injuries.

Absolutely crap for 70 minutes, last 20 outstanding. After being 2-0 down will take a Desmond, but could and prehaps should have won it at the end.

onwards and upwards
