I realise this is a massive long shot but is there any chance of being picked up anywhere near Sheffield? I'm an Eagles fan for my sins but really want to get to this one. I have a disability as well so can't really walk that far. The earliest I can get to Gillingham by train is 1.39 so that's not much good for a 2pm start.

London are looking quite ragged here against Hudds.

Gower must be a doubt for next week as well, he has just been withdrawn with an injury he was carrying most of the half.

Anybody could beat us at the moment, enjoy the trip to Gillingham. Anybody arriving earlier there is a mini's festival at the Medway Dragons ground (check their web site for details).

Anyone driving, permit holders only near ground apparently.

Some parking information would be appreciated

Fantastic.

How To Get There By Car & Where To Park
Leave the M2 at Junction 4 and take the A278 towards Gillingham, going straight across two roundabouts. At the 3rd roundabout turn left onto the A2 towards Gillingham town centre. At the traffic light junction with the A231, turn right into Nelson Road and passing the small bus station take a right turn into Gillingham Road, the ground is down on your right.

Alternatively, At the start of the M2 keep left and follow A289 towards Gillingham. Continue towards Gillingham and go through through the Medway Tunnel (Priestfield Stadium is signposted from here). Continue on the A289 ignoring the turn off for Gillingham town centre, until you reach the Strand roundabout after about a mile. Turn right at this roundabout and up the hill and over the level crossing. Take the second left past the level crossing into Linden Road and the ground is along this road on the right.

There is a residents only parking scheme in operation around the ground, so if you want to street park, this will mean driving a bit further away to do so. Chris Bell a visiting Northampton Town fan adds; 'There is a cheap pay and display car park (£1 for 3 hours) on Railway Street near Gillingham station, which is less than 10 mins walk from the ground'.

See the latest/current RLW and the article on the Medway Dragons.

For the first time the Away fans might be in the minority for a visit of Hull FC. The locals are looking at selling out a 2000 capacity stand just to themselves. Add the Bronco floaters travelling across and they might actually be more locals than Black and Whites.

Very nice.

Fantastic.

all I did was google "Gillingham FC driving directions"

Just on the way to Donny now for the 14-45 to Kings X....8 of us on ham sarnies and Pinot Grigio. Come on the boys. Happy days.

Safe trip to the stripey gang!

Cheers Mart. We've had to raid the copper jar of pound coins for the wkend. It's dear down Sarf. All them fooking Tories and austerity.

We'll survive. Bad heads on that train back Mon afty.
