Re: The belated Gillingham match thread
What a match! Have to disagree with Shaker on Micah, who I thought was dangerous throughout and was only denied a fantastic goal by their 6'8" substitute goalie at the death. I also thought he put in a good defensive shift too. Some great Stanley performances today with Smith the pick, not just for his goals but also his all-round game. Murphy gave his best performance in a Stanley shirt - just keep him away from the full back position, Leam! Could easily have been 7-1 at half time but the Gills murdered us in the second. We really need to work on our defensive possession play when under pressure, but can't fault the commitment with every player putting his body on the line for the team. Enthralling stuff, with the Clayton End willing the lads to victory with a non stop rendition of "Leam and Phil's red and white army" for the last 15 minutes, but I didn't hear the main stand joining in. No doubt someone will correct me if my ears let me down.
