396 Gills at Bradford

Bless your cotton socks, we really are first and foremost in your head aren't we? So cute of you! Well we lost for our 4th successive game, have several key injuries and have been playing poorly, so you could say we're in a bit of a rocky bit of form at the minute. We don't make excuses when we...

I don't think fans of either side think it's a good one to be fair, the only passable interest is that it's the return to Priestfield of Steve Bruce.

Indeed, and a selection of very pacy wingers who will cause anyone a bit of bother. Wouldn't be surprised to see them back in the National North before too long personally.

Great tie as you say, Kettering have been good this season as well so they'll fancy it. Plenty of talent at the top end of the pitch for them to call on.

Blackpool at home for us, will be nice to see Steve Bruce at Priestfield again but other than that it's not the best or most interesting draw, and I'm sure that's a feeling reciprocated from Blackpool. Least it's at home.

71 Accrington at Priestfield

Draw seems the fair result there. I can understand why people are saying it's a harsh penalty, but the arm is away from the body and he gains an advantage from that. I think they get given 9 times out of 10 up and down the country. Decent watch though, two teams who try to play forwards but are...

For all of Notts defensive improvements they still have issues at set plays it seems. Thought they were on top for the 10/15 minutes before that goal, Colclough has livened up Chesterfield.

On the day, probably both. I didn't attend so I can't say for sure, but by all accounts it was comfortably the worst we've been all year, and Bonner was raging afterwards. We clearly aren't poor in terms of the league but we're capable of bad days same as anyone.

560 Gills at Crewe

Well played Crewe, sounds like you had the better of the chances and were clinical when they came. No complaints at all, but a poor couple of results for us which makes Accrington at home next weekend a must win to keep pace at the top where all of a sudden it's really tightened up. We've had a...

Both were made available, nothing happened with either. Lapslie has actually turned up this season though, been one of our better players and suits Bonner's system far better than previous managers.

478 pre sold for Crewe tomorrow, pretty good. I've always considered it a bogey ground and it was for a good 30 years, but looking at recent results there and we've actually won 5 of the last 10 visits so perhaps not that bad after all. Similar injury news to midweek I think in terms of the...

Yeah he did what he had to didn't he, I don't think we ever really managed to stretch him at any point though as you defended well. Quite how he managed to escape without a yellow for timewasting was quite impressive though!
