Years of practice at looking at the table bottom up.

Id have Biggi and turner on the bench. Don't disrupt the defensive partnership right before such a big game.

Armstrong and kent both starting, with Lameras and MAF dropping to the bench. Murphy and Kent out wide and put Jim in the middle.

3-2 Armstrong hatrick. 15'101.

I agree with Bigi on the bench, but not Turner!

yes the defence played well last week. Prior to that we shipped in 2 against Peterborough, 3 against Barnsley, 2 against Northampton and 1 against Colchester.

Gillingham score goals and if we are tight and solid at the back we will win this.

There are bang on 700 tickets left online.

would expect new block to be opened soon , as hard to get tickets together

I was about to post the same, looking for tickets online and can't get any that aren't in the first few rows.

One of the increased security measures this weekend is the introduction of the 'head height' rule.

Pen if a defender goes in their own box too?

me and my mates dont play that rule in 5 a side,you can score in box too. much better as leads to better passing moves and crosses become worthwhile

only at power league mind we do that,at at7 we play that you cant go in the box lol

700 where? all over ground before they open old Telegraph stand?

Twitter should be entertaining at about 3pm tomorrow when all those who haven't been in months / years turn up at the last minute.

Depends on his fitness. Think he's only played 2 or 3 times for the U21's and he only made it to the hour mark the other night? He'll have only trained once or twice with the team, if good old mowbs thinks he slots straight in and will play a full 90, then definitely give him the start.

they should open up new block now,alot of existing seats will not sell because they are just singles and not next to each other

Queue of approx 1 hour at the Ricoh and only 460 tickets available online. Very few pairs.

Surely they need to think about opening another block.

they have too as their will be walk up sales

just requested 7 tickets to test out what is allocated
gave me 7 singles separated by 10 rows!!

I had a row to myself when I ordered my ticket it now looks like the block is sold out and i'll have to breathe in and skip the fry-up tomorrow morning.
Surely opening extra blocks should be done today to allow purchases for those wanting to sit together and time to hire extra stewards..

As long as we hammer them I don't mind where we sit. I wish the old man would agree to going to matches sooner so we didn't have to have crap seats all the time.

I have exactly the same issue. Infuriating.

Gillingham have had the centre back on loan from Charlton recalled.

I haven't sat in my season ticket seat all season as the people I go with are pay on the day fans, but I bought 4 for them this morning in row b as the rest of block 18 was gone apart from the odd seat dotted about. Looks like I will have to sit in my seat on my own tomorrow. I do hope they open up enough blocks to accommodate people.
