'this side does not know when to give up' per KB
'Darrell Clark's substitution works yet again. The man's a tactical genius'

Gillingham were a horrible team. We played pretty well and once again we showed we never give up

At 80 minutes, it felt like it wasn't going to be our day.
Credit to Gillingham, they worked very hard to earn those four minutes of injury time, but it just wasn't long enough for them to find an equaliser. Unlucky.

Credit to Gillingham, they worked very hard to earn those four minutes of injury time, but it just wasn't long enough for them to find an equaliser. Unlucky. At 80 mins I thought it was a good contest between two decent sides. IMO we would have been a bit unfortunate to lose at that stage but it was an enjoyable game all the same. To not only draw level but keep going tp win the match sums up the spirit that DC has instilled in a team which, for once, is actually more than the sum of its parts not less. (I wish we didn't have to keep coming from behind - but that's for another day). I'm just pleased that watching the Gas is enjoyable again. The football we played, win, lose or draw was better than almost anything I saw last season and light years ahead of anything I saw during our Conference season. Progress. We will have no relegation worries and I believe that a playoff place is a realistic target.(If we can improve defensively and stop giving teams a head start) |

I was not expecting that on 80 mins.
Great being there with 9500 crowd and then sending the gills home empty handed when they thought they had burgled us!

Thought there was a decent chance we would rescue a point, they were getting deeper and deeper by that point. It was an interesting game, Gills high pressing game really restricted the space first half and nicking a 1-0 would have been textbook. However they couldn't sustain it and they have conceeded an awful lot of points from winning positions recently. You can see why, when it came to the crunch we got stronger, they fell to pieces. |

Gills very slow and in general today looked poor side. They are quite a big physical team( hence the 7 yellows) and we played into their hands for much of the game with too many long balls.
If we played our own game and got the ball down ourselves i dont think they would have ever offered much.
Star man for them is Dack, looked a different class, love to have in our side.
Thought a draw would have been fair result, over the moon to take all 3 points.

We still cant keep a clean sheet ..eighth consecutive match we have come from behind to either win or draw just one defeat at Sheffield United....DC out ....only joking ! Did not really play well till final 15 mins. Anyone know the Adam who phoned GT at Radio Bristol after the match...some remarkable insight by him....Thought Colkett was different class and the Linesy goal was magnificent. The Gills were a real spoiling side...seven bookings...their keeper wasting time but must admit Bradley Dake looked class. Well done Welsh wizard Ellis Harrison a real super sub. We are now serious play off contenders now

If so, completely agree no not the young lad Adam sounded early 30s very knowledgeable indeed. Said about the players fitness and DC's ploy of putting on fresh legs late on |

Standard day at the office, we were the better team, we played more football, we were the fitter team, and last but not least DC stamped his quality all over that game with his substitutions. Would love to be a fly on the wall in the changing rooms at half time because DC has obviously got a great ability to motivate the players, never have i seen a group of players behind there manager so much, and for such a long time aswell. Most teams go through a good spell for a few weeks or maybe a few months, with us it's been 2 years when we found our feet in the conference in October 2014. With the manager we have, the backroom staff we have, the owners we have, and the super sized squad we have that's packed full of quality, i don't see anything other than more and more great times on the horizon.
