Brilliant....in fact, utter Genius. Announce we're off to pastures new and THEN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 7 YEARS WASTE MONEY ATTEMPTING TO ATTRACT FANS FROM THE AREA TO GAMES WHO, EVEN IF THEY BECOME HOOKED WILL HAVE TO TRAVEL TO KENT, THE HIVE OR ORIENT NEXT YEAR

Am I alone in thinking that the levels of ineptitude at the club are seeming only matched by the levels of insanity?

You're not.

But damned if they do, damned if they don't.

Good to know that other fans,many who have more years of service under their belts that I, are just as dismayed at the goings on at the club...

Nope....the minute they announced we were 100% offski, any "interim spend" should have been on creating "events"...like opting for a game to run a deal for anzacs, or letting ST holders bring 5 mates for a quid each. The damned if they did/didn't scenario at the Stoop v2 only relates to 2006-2012.....2013 was over when the Warder played his second get out of jail card

Two different adverts in the local paper for the wire game, one with a chance to win a signed shirt for the outlay of £1! You have to answer one of three questions: Who are LB playing? Wire, Dragons, Gills. Just hope LB do not move to Gillingham.

There must be some LB fans in Kent to make the move plausible.

Maybe a few but the football club won their league averaging 6,600. Attracting even half of that on a regular basis would require a succesful side. I suspect the sort of team we have right now will attract even less than we do at The Stoop.

Of course, for a one off game we will get more especially if the local amateur team do all the hard work to promote it.

It may well be that the Gillingham FC owners are the only people willing to invest in the club. Mr Scally seems to be very astute financially, turning total debts of 13,000,000+ into a profitable situation in a short space of time. and he likes animals too http://www.kentsportsnews.com/scally-appeals-for-missing-tortoise-08-11-2012/
