Any Gills fans know what sort of side you have out for our friendly?

Did that the time before last, eventually managed to sneak past the police outside the Bridge Inn & went to Bluecoat, Cutlers Arms & another but was asked for our postcode & address at all of them, luckily I was seeing someone from Brinsworth at the time so we got in (my mate was also that day my next door neighbour :bg:) Didn't bother last time we played, just stayed in Donny & got the 2 o'clock rattler. We will probably stay in Donny season after this coming one when we play :P1: as the pubs are better.

New found confidence or misplaced cockiness, I'll let others decide!

At least NYS is only 5 minutes walk from about a dozen town centre pubs, not miles from anywhere.
One consideration when a site was being chosen was up by the M18 at Hellaby which would have been awful.

Whenever we go to the Keepmoat or whatever it is this week we just bus it to the ground.

Nice set up at doncaster tbh, just a way out of town which is shame, probably best to bus it as the area between the ground and the town centre is well interesting let’s say.

Shame it’s a tuesday night this season.

We are away at Heybridge Swifts. I really don't care about the match just fitness and tactics.

i did notice Steve Tilson is the manager up there. Southend leg end.

I'm not a gambler and I certainly would never usually consider putting a bet on a pre season friendly but there is pretty good odds available for us to beat Man Utd (around 4/1). Given the squad they are putting out I'm pretty tempted

We're rotating players to give them all 90 mins in matches. 3/4's of the probably starters against Tranmere are rested against Oldham tonight.

Lincoln’s away support tonight similar to what they used to bring here for league games pre 2016.

We beat Blackpool 2-1. Their side was a mixture of first team players and youngsters, so it was a decent performance.

Jennings scored again.

Langstaff merrily bagging away through pre-season, don’t think we’re close to knowing our best team or set up yet but he’s a constant. Probably score enough by the end of August that someone buys him.

Some of our fans getting very carried away on Twitter just because we’re beating Lincoln 2-0.
Does sound like we’re playing some great stuff but come on it’s a Pre season friendly ffs.

Came from behind to win 3-1 at hearts.

Nice little trip north of the border.

We’re currently getting walloped 1-0 by Woking. And not a fit centre half to be seen already.

Beat Wednesday 1-0 I don’t think they understand the word friendly though, kicked lumps out of us. Oh and their couldn’t even respect the tribute to Francis and Bart-Williams

I still can't imagine anything worse than going to a pre season friendly. I'm enjoying this time before football properly starts!
Couldn’t agree more, only ever been to 1 and that’s only because the Missus bought me the ticket for an extra Birthday present.
Looks like she learned her lesson though as today is also my Birthday and she didn’t get me one for tonight. :woo:
