Mind you, they’d benefit from someone praying for them

I was going ask if this was a job for Steve Cotterill but I see that’s he’s just been appointed as the next Archbishop of York

You got the score and the exact date correct, but alas we were playing Chichester in the FA Cup that day....

Well, hardly alas, because we won 11-0!

Yes I stand corrected. It was Chichester. 

My memory tells me that my next match was against Dartford in the second round. We won 8-2.

my third match was in the League against Notts County. We won that match 6-0 scoring all our goals in the first half.... so at the end I commented on the lack of goals. 

Happy days 

Football League club Gillingham is in north Kent, it’s one of the Medway towns. A difficult place to get to  as I discovered when I saw us play there.

There is another Gillingham which is in the South of England (possibly Dorset). I remember it as I saw my first Bristol City match when we played them in the FA Cup 1st round on 5 November 1960 (I think). We won 11-0 (a club record) with John Atyeo scoring 5 goals 

Most of us were saying that this was a "must not lose" game. That's what happened; yes, we could and should have taken one of the various chances to add to Tammy's great finish, but we hung on.....the last few minutes were agony and I'm pleased with that result.

We should now stay up
