Gillingham don’t look like a footballing side. But we are dreadful at the moment

Harrop is not impressing me at all
Same, he's awful. I just don't like Norwood either, that must be six bloody fouls he's conceded already

Our defence is a bloody shambles right now . More goals against unless they sort themselves out quick

You don’t need a midfield when both teams just hoof it from back to front.

To be fair, we are trying play it though they middle. Gillingham just hump long balls to their striker from the back.

Dozzell, Harrop(is he on the pitch), Bennetts crap today so far Harrop off, Downes holding and Dozzell higher up pitch might help

He's produced one decent cross but he is garbage, you watch every time he's in range of a tackle or running into a one on one challenge, he slows up and ducks out of it, bloody embarrassing

We’ve either got to double their striker or stop the passes coming in to him .
