@TheGilllsfc You stuck with us this season. Showed up away. Showed up at Priestfield. Not overlooked and appreciated. We have to get our act together and stop underperforming. We will. The only rationalization I can come up with is the following: “The champagne tastes better when you’ve spent a few seasons drinking tap water.” Tap water is fine but it generally has bacteria, lead, and microplastics in it. Champagne, not so much. Let’s come back together after the World Cup and stay tuned for our summer business. As always, Up The Gills. 💙 With Much Respect, B.

@Checkfish Don't see it as a massive issue. Most will know if they are in the plans or not going forwards by Gareth's actions over the last few weeks.

Big change is needed over the summer!

@TheME7Podcast Sunday morning pub teams would be having an inquest after most of the goals we have conceded today. Absolutely terrible!

[Brad Galinson @BradGalinson]

No denying shit season. Complete rehaul coming in summer. Hopefully we learn, improve, and build it better. That being said, seeing the potential yesterday with those goals was something to build on. Seeing our fans, as usual, traveling and chanting was something I needed. Thanks for that. At some point soon we’re going to ask for that support for next season with a cool season ticket launch. Wish it was better this season but we move on; look to the World Cup; preseason; friendlies (we have some solid matches); and we go again, together, like we always do. Brad. @TheGillsFC

@TheME7Podcast We are very lucky we started the season strongly or we would be playing non league football next season. Can't defend and can't score for anything - 5 straight defeats and probably more to come 😭 #Gills

Watched the game today Gillingham v Bristol Rovers .

Imo so many good things especially first half looked more as a team limited the opposition to next to nothing and deserved to go in 1-0 or maybe 2-0 at the break

Just need 90 mins plus of the first half and results will come

@StuartLewis66 Just pointing out the fact that government borrowing is nothing new. But you only seem to have a problem with it if it's Labour. Must have missed the same tweets when the Tories were in power about all the borrowing they did.

[Elli౦t @Elliot_T_D]

@Checkfish True but we aren't going up or down this season. It's time for a proper rebuild in the summer. #Gills

[Elli౦t @Elliot_T_D]

@EnchantingCbR I don't disagree but we were pretty unlucky. The ball just didn't fall kindly for us this eve and their keeper made some good saves.

[Paul Fisher @Checkfish]

Intelligence and legs in midfield with some experience in the middle of the back line. Much improved first half. Well done boys.

[Elli౦t @Elliot_T_D]

@TheGillsFC A much better half and unlucky not to have scored. If we can do the same in the second half we will win the game. Get Andrews off and bring on Seb Palmer-Holden as we have been playing ball to feet which will suit him better.

[Elli౦t @Elliot_T_D]

@Truebluejock @StuartLewis66 Agreed - although if we are in the bottom 6 at Xmas time he has to go but that is worst case scenario stuff (hopefully anyway!)

[Brad Galinson @BradGalinson]

So, Gills, what to say right now? A few things. We knew it would take a few seasons to right what was inherited and to get our bearings. Injuries also huge issue.
Shan and I (and Joe and Gaz and Dobbo and everyone else) still love and support this team and the fanbase. Stick with us.
All we can do is survive the battles until we reinforce the foundation. It hurts. But can you imagine, some day, how it will feel when we finish our work? Another thing, while I wholeheartedly support the Gills and English football, I, along with nine other L1 and L2 owners, are taking a stand on the state of the EFL. It loses £500M per season and nearly all its clubs are within 1 month of being Sheffield Wednesday. No business owner on the planet, myself included, would affiliate with that sort of incompetence. And it is far too much heartbreak for communities to bear. Cannot continue for even a single season. See link below if you're interested. @TheGillsFC @EFL

@ME8Gills @TheGillsFC Ref didn't help blowing up when we were through on goal. We have been ruthless with managers. Time to get ruthless with players in the summer.

[Elli౦t @Elliot_T_D]

@Checkfish Couldn't agree more Fish. The defence & midfield has been an embarrassment. One straight ball right through the middle of them all! #Gills
