Gillingham FC Forum

Home game against Wolverhampton Wanderers has been moved to Friday 3rd January from the Saturday for live coverage on Sky Sports!

I wonder how this will impact the attendances. This was possibly going to be our biggest gate of the league season but I wonder if this will now mean a few won't be able to go?

If they pay roughly the same amount as BT the other might , it'll cover roughly 1600 adults on the night - So assuming the mix would include Kids , then maybe as long as you lost less than 1200 you'd be in Profit .

But you could also market the night as a promotional night , to ensure you got a higher attendance and the TV money .

That's interesting. The club could really pack them in and make a bit of money seeing as they would likely to bring a fair few......but I bet they don't!!!!

Time for a gamble Ladies and Gentlmen ? Lets bet a fiver on the gate for the Gillingham v Wolverhampton game on Friday January 3rd, 2014, payable at the Noircat Presentation night when the season ends.
Those who can not attend will have to pay by the "honor system" and send the money to Noircat c/o GFC a week before the presentation night.
Closet OVER wins, last day to enter Christmas night 12pm, that's the 25th December 2013 midnight.
I will send my fiver as soon as the first person comes in to the pool. Can not imagine anything more I would want to do if I lived in the Medway Towns on that night. OK I can think of one thing , but where do you find a topless female clown wearing flippers , a snorkel and water wings in early January ?
My fiver goes to........................Total Attendance, for Gillingham v Wolves, Friday 3rd Jan 2014.......7.937.
