[Medway Blue]

How many times do I have to say it?

DON'T SIT BACK ON A LEAD!

2-0 IS NEVER SAFE, JUST COME OUT AND GO FOR THE JUGGULAR IM THE SECOND HALF!

I really do wonder what he tells them at half time when we're leading.

[Supershrimper]

Almost want to turn the radio off, but then i'll just be annoyed / relived when I read the result

 

[Supershrimper]

5 minutes additional

 

[yogi bear up the cagire]

Five mins added :omg:

 

[Supershrimper]

Thank god for that, 1-2 and 3 vital points

 

[Boreham Shrimper]

1-2

Never in doubt :winking:

 

[Beefy]

Easy. I wasn't worried for a second.

 

[Medway Blue]

Brilliant first half but I hate how we consistently try our best to throw it away in the second half. Kill it off and be ruthless for Christ's sake!

 

[WightShrimper]

I can't cope with this pressure. At least I can't get any greyer!:'(

 

[eastling]

Still 3 points and yet another away win! Well done all.

to all the moaners at RH who slag these players off - they can and do win - so let's get behind them on Saturday. UTB!

Thats not accounting for the opposition coming out and being desperate to get back in the game.

Gillingham were a different team second half and if we had been ruthless we could have conceded far earlier.

Never in doubt:'( listening to Kane and Dicko on tv giving a typical footballer interview Kane MOM

 

[MK Shrimper]

Jesus that was tense :stunned:

I don't agree with that. They were a 'different team' because we let them be. We came out and sat back thinking the job was done, and Gillingham got confident 5 minutes after the restart because tey could see we were sitting back and they smelt blood. Too many times second half Dickinson was the only player in their half. If you go in 2-0 up at HT and come out to sit on it and try not to concede, sod's law states that concede you will do. Just kill it off, all we needed was one more.

First half though, I thought we were superb.

Yes Yes Yes

HAPPY DAYS

Good to watch the Shrimpers on TV :-)

Good job lads, great to be back to the top, no matter how briefly! Not sure why Kane got motm, thought Mohsni was the only candidate for that today, he was immense.
