Saturday 26th
Match day - GILLS v Swindon Town (EFL Sky Bet League 2)

Sunday 27th
The AFC Wimbledon win was the Gills' 10th win from the 19 matches played in March and April over the last 3 seasons. There has been just 1 defeat in those 19 home games after there had been 5 wins and 7 home defeats from the 17 played in January and February over the last 3 seasons.

Monday 28th
In the game against AFC Wimbledon, Glenn Morris won 2 fouls - his 7th and 8th fouls won in his last 27 games. The other 24 games this season saw the goalkeepers win 1 fouls between them. In the 76 other matches played by Morris for the Gills, he won just 5 more free kicks.

Tuesday 29th
With 4 shots off target or blocked in the game against AFC Wimbledon, Sam Gale doubled his attempts off target for the season (4 in 19 games) after managing 1 in each of the games against Walsall (0-0), Bradford (1-0), Carlisle (0-0) and Crewe (0-0).

Wednesday 30th
In each of the 2 previous seasons, the Gills only saw red cards issued in just 2 matches. In the first 8 games of this season, the Gills saw 3 red cards but none in the 41 that followed. Against Swindon, the Gills received 2 red cards in the same match for the first time since Dack and Konchesky were sent off at Millwall in December 2016.

Thursday 1st
The Gills drew their 13th game of 2025 (23 games played), overtaking the 12 earned in the whole of 2024 (50 league and cup games played). 9 have come from the 11 away matches with 1 more to play.

Friday 2nd
The Gills ended their 2024/5 home campaign unbeaten in 6 (4 wins) which followed a winless spell of 6 games (4 defeats). Despite that unbeaten run, the Gills lost 11 home league and cup games and only 4 seasons in their history saw more (all in seasons after 1988).
