I wouldn’t change it.

U’s playing some excellent stuff but should no way be losing this. The team does have a penchant for conceding soft goals
from nothing and that is a huge concern. We’ve got a soft centre to us and the keeper should never have let the header go in at the near post.

Gills have got 10 players behind the ball but we’re moving them around well.

When will the penny drop that eastwood is a liability.

My first ever away game I have watched on iFollow and the radio Kent nob heads are doing my head in.

Slow start and shite defending followed by being all over them and unable to finish one of the 3 or 4 very good chances we have made. Have the feeling we needed one of those in to get back into this, points thrown away early here barring a miracle, you won’t get promoted with this back four we are playing with at the moment though.

Sorry but you can't defend like that (Gillingham have only been in our half three or four times and scored twice!) before you start to play - and then miss an open goal.

Clare isn't a fullback, Kelly is more concerned to just play the safe pass (mostly back where it came from) and Brannagan's miss was an absolute shocker.

It's the defence that needs sorting out really - I'd be confident we'd win this if we weren't 2 down! ;)
 
Clare turned himself around a bit towards the end of the first half. He can’t really defend but can attack, so when he gets forward he looks decent, when he sits back he looks poor.
 
At the moment the defense we have means that we have to score at least 2 or 3 goals to get a draw.
 
The whole watch match option disappeared, then came back but is just a silent intro page

How can we be sh*t and create so many chances? Thats completley contradicting.

I agree that the defending for the goals was poor but for the last 20/25 minutes we were playing very well and should be level.

We can be s**t in front of goal. Squandering massive chances. We need to be more clinical in front of goal. That one of the areas we’ve been s**t! The two goals we conceded were extremely poor as well.

Stats look good, but it’s the goals Column that counts. We have nothing to show for our possession and attempts at goal.
 
Kelly has done a couple of fantastic passes. That through ball to taylor from 50 yards was class. However, he is too lightweight and small to play dcm. Not really surprising we leak goals to mediocre teams from crosses and set pieces.
