Blue is the colour...


Pistol Pete (Thanks once again to Thompo for the pic)

And then there were two. What a result for the Blues, blasting away the title challenge of third-placed Portadown 4-0, with 2 more goals for Pistol Pete, who surely will be snapped up by a cross-channel club in the January transfer window. If we'd have had this victory last season instead of an over-cautious 0-0 draw three games from the end of the season, we'd have won the league. But the Glens are hot on our tails after winning 3-0. Next up for the Blues? League Cup Final on Saturday. The opponents? Glentoran, who else? (stop press: just been movd to Saturday week as George Best's funeral is on Saturday)

As for the others, Gillingham were roundly spanked 5-0, a result that scares me, we don't cave in like that too often. A new manager had better be installed quicksmart.

TeBe, who visited the world-famous Torgelow in Vorpommern, pulled off a 2-1 win but are still deep in relegation trouble. Good report and pics again from the TeBe Party Army Boy.

By the way, excuse the messiness of the site at times, with random tables and stuff, trying to sort it out and make it snazzy and informative but as a html novice, still haven't got the hang of it. Give me time...

No, things are looking very bleak for the Gills. I thought there were enough other crap teams in the league to save them before, but that collapse was bad. Not that losing to Colchester is bad at the minute but they crumbled. This the latest on BBC:

Gillingham chairman Paul Scally will back caretaker boss Ronnie Jepson's plan to off-load several players when the January transfer window opens.

The Gills are 21st in League One, just six points from the bottom.

"I will support Ronnie in what he wants to do, as quite clearly we need major surgery," Scally told BBC Radio Kent.

"We're in a transitional period, but we've certainly got enough players to stay in this division this season, then we'll rebuild for next season."

Meanwhile, Jepson has enlisted Mick Docherty, who was with him on the coaching staff at Burnley, to assist him on a temporary basis.


Good luck to you.
