    Hello and welcome to the all new and improved Match day Hub which is now the official place for Gillingham fans, I decided to update this so that you will know where to go and chat before and during the game.
    This is here to replace the match day thread and the Starting Line up Prediction, this is where you will now be able to post all your team predictions and score updates. You can now just spend your match day in one place if you are not at the game.

    This is the thread for the upcoming game, I always post this thread before each game so that you can express your views on the corresponding fixture and can talk between each other during the game,
    You can post your team predictions before the game, you may include the starting 11 plus the subs which you think will be in the team, no points awarded for your predictions it is just for fun, it allows you to start a healthy debate between each other about the team which we will play or what it should be.
    If you wish you can post updates freely about the game and chat between yourselves, you are also free to talk about other games bizarre or not.
    This is open to both Gillingham fans and also the opposition
    After the match I will allow you all to create a summary on this thread and I will also provide extra details on the game if they are required or if I want to point anything out. You can talk about what was good about the game and what could have been better. During the game I will update the score and the team sheets as soon as they are available, also at the end I will add the table to this thread as it stands.


    This is here permanently so you will not see the Match day thread or the starting line up prediction threads as this is them combined.

    Hoadie - you have requested a sticky thread, so I need to make you aware that if I make this thread a sticky, the site settings will automatically remove it from the Burton board if I select the sticky thread option. So it is either a multi board or sticky thread but there is no mod options to do both.

    I doubt removing it from the Burton board will cause the thread to lose any chance of a post from a Burton fan. So far there are a total of 13 threads with 40 posts. And looking at the Burton board the most recent seem to be mainly from Gills fans anyway. I think a sticky applied to this post will be safe for this match.

    That ok, there don't seem to be Burton fans on here anyway, only a few clubs in our league seem to have fans on here.

    Starting line up is as followed for me
    I have to say this is what I would like to see and maybe not what will happen. I have done it right to left
    ------------------Gazza-----------------------

    Lee------Richards-----Essam------King---------
    -----------------Payne------------------------
    Whelpdale--------------------Jackman---------

    Tomlin---------Kedwell-----------Kuffour--------

    Subs

    Flitney
    Martin
    Evans
    Weston
    Spiller

    I have gone with something a bit different and I would be happy to see this.
    I hope we don't have Frampton and Lawrence in the team, also hope there is no Montrose, but I doubt this will happen!

    I planned this while I was in my French lesson at School planning for my last exam, well it is really boring and I am not too good at it, LOL.

    Spiller could be back I hear so I don't think he will be straight back in, I think he will be on the bench.

    Nice team Hoadie,

    Just a shame that Lee, King, Payne are all out with injuries. :D

    Where did you see that Lee is out, I know Payne is doubtful and I wasn't sure about King as he is injured most of the time.

    Oh **** sake our team is going to be weak.

    Now we will probably have to play players that really we wouldn't want to have to use.
    Here is my revised team.


    ------------------Gazza-----------------------

    Whelpdale-----Richards-----Essam-----Martin---

    Spiller----------Weston-------------Jackman----

    Tomlin---------Kedwell-----------Kuffour--------

    Subs

    Flitney
    Evans
    Davies (Not sure if he is out on loan)
    Rance
    Miller

    This is my team, but I doubt he will not include Montrose, Lawrence and Frampton or at least 2 of them with us in this mini crisis.
    I also doubt that he will start Spiller as he will only just be back, hope he is fit in time but I would expect him on the bench, if he don't start then I would rather Rance than Montrose.

    If we do have trouble with a few niggling injuries then I'm really not sure a lot will change. I'm predicting:-

    Gazzaniga

    Lawrence
    Essam
    Richards
    Martin

    J Payne
    Whelpdale
    Weston
    Jackman

    Tomlin
    Kuffour

    SUBS
    Flitney
    Frampton
    Montrose
    Spiller
    Kedwell

    Gazza

    Evans, Richards, Frampton, Martin

    Whelpdale, Weston, Jackman, Tomlin

    Keds? Kuffour

    Subs
    Flitney
    Lawrence
    Spiller
    Montrose
    ???

    Assuming J. Payne, King, Lee are out?

    I think it may be different now that Kedwell may be out and also I see that Evans could be playing so it will be like this.



    ------------------Gazza-----------------------

    Evans-----Richards-----Essam-----Martin---

    Whelpdale---Rance----Weston-----Jackman

    Tomlin--------------------Kuffour--------

    Subs

    Flitney
    Davies (Not sure if he is out on loan)
    Spiller
    Montrose
    Miller

    This is what I would like to see, but I doubt it, I think we will still see Montrose in midfield instead of Rance and we will see Lawrence instead of Essam and we will probably see Frampton on the bench, but I would be happy to see this.

    I know we won't know whether the game is definitely on until tomorrow, but credit to Burton for the efforts they are making.

    Yeah good to see they are working hard, hope the game is on, but lets hope that their hard work is not rewarding for their own fans.

    KentOnline now saying that Hess hopes to have Danny Spiller and Jack Payne fit, and maybe Kedwell as well.

    http://www.kentonline.co.uk/kentonline/sport/2012/february/9/danny_kedwell.aspx

    Problem is that training has been disrupted by the weather, and so probably he won't have a good idea of who's OK until they get some playing time on grass under their feet.

    Also speculation that Jack Evans might be in at right back - don't know much about him but whilst I think Lawrence is a great centre back I really don't like to see him in wider positions, and so if he is a specialist right back then why not? But would Hess put Evans and Essam in the same back four? Risky methinks, so maybe it's Lawrence in at centre with Richards and Evans on the right.

    We all (no, make that a lot of us) think that a shake up of the back 4 is required, but it's going to be interesting to see what line up he comes up with. Hopefully more of a shake up than at Accrington, but what odds on 3 substitutions before half time?

    All goes to add grist to the saying that we live in interesting times.
