I also think it was football in the raw...none of the corporate bollocks that now dominates the game....managers, players, owners were all accessible and available for a chat and a beer...you felt like you were part of the club, not just a CUSTOMER.
Those days have gone I personally think
Loved going on the junior seagulls coaches with laura and occasionally Becky...met some lovely people, paul, Colin etc and actually enjoyed the gillingham experience...we were battling to save our club for the generations to come and we had to stick by the club and the team come hell or high...
