This is the team I grew up supporting. Between 1964 and 1974 I attended hundreds of games – home and away. My heroes were John Simpson (a legendary keeper), three aggressive defenders (David Peach, Davis Quirke and Bill Williams) and Brian Yeo who scored goals for fun. In the last 40 years I have experienced the (few) highs and (many) lows from all over the world …….. but they are still “my club”. In many ways it is fortunate that  they have never played Manchester United so my loyalty for the two has never been put to the test!Gillingham Football Club is calling all supporters to get on their bikes and join us for the biggest charity fund-raising event in the club’s history, Ride with the Gills. So pump up your tyres and get on your bike for a great day out.
