Gillingham ended their run of defeats with a come-from-behind 1-1 draw on the road at Tranmere Rovers, but that sentence might lead you to think that the team mounted a stirring comeback.
The truth: They didn’t.
The Gills were hugely frustrating and disappointing as once again they showed a lack of fight and character as they fell behind to a soft Tranmere goal. Then, when the equaliser came, it arrived via an own goal, though new Gills’ signing Jimmy-Jay Morgan might have finished the job had the Rovers’ defender not got there first.
The 1-1 draw may have ended Gillingham’s run of four consecutive losses, but it still felt more like a loss than a win, with the stark reality of our current limitations now there for new boss John Coleman to see after two games in charge.
James Hawkins takes charge of the podcast as he’s joined by a selection of fellow Gills fans to unpack the latest result in what’s turning out to be a damp squib of a season.
