Pantomime

Saturday 27 Oct – Gills 3-2 Bristol Rovers

Well, how peculiar. A decidedly odd game that left everyone slightly flummoxed but was highly entertaining all the same. For long periods it was lousy, with quality from both sides leaving everything to be desired, but that’s not to say it wasn’t entertaining. I think we shaded it – we certainly didn’t deserve to lose – and Bristol Rovers were incapable of showing much ambition, but you couldn’t get beyond the notion that it was all held together by plasters, elastic bands and a bit of fairy dust.
