I would love to have gone tonight but i just cant justify £32 on tickets alone for me and a 4 year old who probably won't sit still, Im going for a 3-1 to the gills.

It's always seemed very short-sighted to me that, when we are getting at most 6000-odd (ie, nowhere near capacity) we don't run the kids-for-a-quid scheme more often. It always results in a bigger attendance and surely most of those kids who come along will go on to be Gillingham supporters in the future. I would bet almost everyone on this messageboard can remember going along to watch as a kid (for me it was as one of the Junior Gills, being penned in between the Rainham End and the Main Stand).

Being half term week from school as well a reduced price would have been welcomed.

As I look around there are a lot of retired people who come, this is great of course but we do need to interest the younger ones for the future.

We'll let's hope everyone's sons do not move away and all come to the football in the future. GOYGs
