Tommy Cook reporting said:, last night the headline story on the local sport pages (p.471) was concerned with how the Charlton chairman refutes Gillingham claims he is trying to poach their fans by offering cheap transport to the Valley from the Medway towns. :
Tommy Cook reporting said:Page 472 however, was a story about the leader of a Gillingham fans association bemoaning that Paul Scally wasn't doing enough to (poach) attract fans from Kent areas such as Margate and Dover - erh, two areas who have their own football clubs!
Icy Gull said:Which is exactly what Charlton tried to do when we were propping up Div 3 at Gillingham. Adverts all over the place including Hove Station
Never understand why Albion fans have a soft spot for a club taht tried to woo our fans when we were nearly down and out.
They obviously look for disaffected fans from teams that are struggling, and people think that they are a "nice" club
Tommy Cook reporting said:My current gripe with Meridian (Kent & Sussex version) is that it seems to be always Gillingham news first, followed by the Albion.
You should've have seen it 10 yrs ago.Being from Kent you wouldn't have known Brighton existed!.
Meridian are improving.You must remember that Kent is a footballing black-hole,Which is why i and most others turn elsewhere for inspiration.
