They must all have gone to the match. Not terribly confident here, but hopeful.

Faal put through 1v1 and hit straight at the keeper

Molly twists and turns to the bye line, clips in a cross and a Gills player heads over his own bar from the six yard line for a corner

All the play in the Gills half so far

Now for gods sake let’s not try sitting back for the rest of the afternoon
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ian1980 on September 23, 2023, 03:19:30 pm
Rovers looking very good and sharp so far. Only Faal, who’s touch has been poor, the rest so far doing really well.

The formation/system seams to be working, keep it going

This is a bit of a recurring theme with Faal. He seems to be better suited as an impact sub at this stage of his career. Hopefully Ironside is fit to start with Marsh next game.

Was it Close who scored? Good goal?
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: Donny Dub on September 23, 2023, 03:23:43 pm
We look lively very confident too. We don’t often score first either.  Keep it up lads!
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ian1980 on September 23, 2023, 03:28:40 pm
The confidence in the team is growing. We’re passing it about much better than we have in previous games.
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ChrisBx on September 23, 2023, 03:36:00 pm
Sounds like Jones has produced some good work so far today. It would be a nice surprise if he really pushes on from here.
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ian1980 on September 23, 2023, 03:38:58 pm
Gills getting back into the game now. They had to as we dominated for the first 20 mins or so.

Jones with a couple of saves in last few minutes.

I do hope Peter Catt never gives a team talk.  He’s such a grouch, so negative always.
Jones doing well Lawlor will be lucky to get his place back again.

1-1 Poor marking from a corner kick
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ian1980 on September 23, 2023, 03:51:15 pm
Corner all the way over to back post, unmarked gills player heads back across goal into corner of net.

Defence crumbling again at the worst possible time.
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: Barmby Rover on September 23, 2023, 03:51:35 pm
Not been pushing like we did in the first twenty minutes, you can't take the foot off the pedal, you have to kill them!
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: foxbat on September 23, 2023, 03:51:48 pm
FFS  , were asking for that. Gills will be highly delighted

Why do we score and then just sit back to soak the pressure
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills

Just went from 19th to bottom  :(

It was a good corner, we've been decent so far.
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: Barmby Rover on September 23, 2023, 03:57:30 pm
Rovers crashed from 19th to bottom with that goal they let in, they must treat attack as their only form of defence at times.
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: ncRover on September 23, 2023, 04:01:59 pm
Big handball just prior to the goal from the corner

Getting closer, Rovers pushing forward well now.

Rovers getting back on top. Gills look like they’re running out of steam. No reason we can’t win this
Title: Re: TLOD V Gills
Post by: Donny Dub on September 23, 2023, 04:36:25 pm
Anderson is back to his best today and Olowu is looking good.  They look like a team that play together and I’m enjoying this game a lot.

We’ve played all the top sides in this division as well. Gillingham have been the best away side this season so the signs look good.

A good and deserved win IMHO. A right screamer for Ben Closes second goal. As they say you don’t save them. Be worth watching the football league show tonight to see that goal again.

Onwards and upwards

SM. I beg to differ. Notts County were way better than Gillingham IMO.
We were every bit as good as Gillingham, and nowhere near as good as County

I'd add Mansfield to that list. They looked excellent.
