Re: Gillingham (H) match thread

Ref was okay today, I don’t think it was a red card any more than McConville penalty appeal was lame at best.

We can’t be relying upon favourable referees to win games, need to do it ourselves.

Every league and every game is the same, you win the midfield battle you generally win or draw the game.
Not once did we win the midfield battle, that was the main problem today although a poor central defence and iffy goalkeeper didn’t help matters.
In some respects, one could argue their chances came from losing the midfield battles which put the defenders in a difficult position.

Give Sykes credit for one thing, his tactical yellow card was clever.
He was caught ball watching and out of position and the Gills striker would have been clean through.

Let’s all hope Coleman can find some rough gems before Fridays deadline.
