A very cold day. Forecast to be absolutely bitter but - in the end - it wasn''t that bad thanks to lack of wind. I didn''t even need my gloves at the game.
It was a very pleasant journey both down and back up but the football was awful. Genuinely Gillingham were lucky to get nil. They were diabolical. Outplayed at the back, out-thought in the middle and out-muscled up front. Dire.
The stadium is strange in that it looks like its been newly built to look old. And one end is what looks like a temporary stand. It wasn''t used though.
I was sitting next to a (50-something) die-hard Gill who, for the whole 90-plus minutes, regaled me with the details of just about every Gill goal scored and conceded (home and away) since about 1965. But it could have been worse. And at least he took my mind off the putrid rubbish being played out on the pitch.
I still had a good day though. And home by 21:30. Can''t be bad.
