Pre-Match Thread Well Up For It: Gillingham

[Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset]

After this last week, really can't wait.

The obligatory salute as we pass the Ewe down the A12.

'Blue' on the repeat button until we get it word perfect.

A 1,000 plus Shrimper army giving Tilly and Co the support they deserve.

Maybe another last minute SUFC winner to make the second round draw interesting.

And Moyet on Wednesday.

Come on, get behind the Blues like never before.

:support:

I can't wait. My first game at gillingham and first one getting the trust coach. I may be very excited waiting for the coach in the roots hall car park (that is where it will be?)

Don't get too excited about Gillingham its a dump, not trying to rain on your parade or anything (oh yeah good luck if it rains)!

A bit of rain never hurt anyone. I'd usually be going with my fellow STH but they have other things :(

I remember getting absolutely soaked to the skin at Gillingham years and years ago, I think the game finished 1-1.

Went there many moons ago, funny enough to see us play Brighton when they were sharing, and yes it was a bit run down, must have done some upgrades buy now though. Close game going for 1 0 blues Walker. Nice to be talking about football for a change

The away end is temporary uncovered seating although curiously part of it is for home fans, the rest of the ground is alright though!

[Interpol Shrimper]

Only ever seen us win at Gillingham.
3 times v the Gills (best one was in the Martin era when we scored 2 injury time goals, Coulbault & Boere to win 2-1) and another victory v Brighton when they were groundsharing.
