[ 16 Nov 16 ] Brackley Town v GILLS Match Thread (cup)

[CadburyMan]

Forget all the doom and look on the bright side- we can concentrate on the league now with no diversions

[Kent_UckyFriedGills]

Where to start? We started brightly with good possession play without really testing their keeper,then out of nothing they score after poor defending.Then not long after they go 2-0 up with more poor defending.With the game on BT Sport most other football fans could see what we all see most weeks.Hessy pulled a goal back,then Wagstaff came on to score wihtin 2 minutes of coming on.You then think there will only be one winner as Brackley couldn`t get the ball,and we kept coming forward.Then in E/T when you think Brackley will be knackered they go 3-2,then 4-2 up through more embarrassing defending.Just not good enough that a milkman can score a hat-trick against us,and all their other Team mates had been working hard all day.All our players had to do is probably a light session,then a coach trip up on a warm coach.Cody pulled a goal back to make it 4-3,but it was too late.The defending was some of the worst I have seen from Gills players,Oshilaja had a nightmare,and Ehmer was off form.What makes it more embarassing is we have played Brackley 4 times and have not beaten them once.Also in these two games we have conceded 6 goals against them.We know our problems are in defence,and it shows how poor our defence is that we cannot stop leaking goals against any team at any level.I think Cargill was a massive miss as he has played in two wins for us last week.He has to start on Saturday in place of Oshilaja.

No FA Cup run again this year,and how many Teams would have liked our draw?
