@@paramedicchrisbookseries My pleasure! Hopefully the change can do something to turn the season around

What are you smoking? 🤣

@@dodgem259 Not unless match day ticket prices have gone down a lot since the last time I checked

@@the_footballtourist £23 match day ticket, hospitality ticket £86 (checked the website today)

@@Gingerjake14 I am definitely thinking about it. Still in shock you won the last round!

@@ka536-e1g You’d have to say it’s worth it just for that

@@lovelyjubbly34 Woah thank you so much for doing that! It was a song that stuck with me for a long time not least with the passion you guys sung it with. I need to hear it again at some point soon!

@the_footballtourist glad you liked it! Forza Bari and keep up what you doing, happy 2025 !

@ I really did! Surprised you found this video my friend it’s nearly 2 years old but good luck with the rest of the season!

I have heard of it just had a bit of Christmas fatigue but that point is all. I also thought it ended on the 25th not started! The more you know

@@the_footballtourist I fully understand your Christmas fatigue as it starts so early now, the commercial aspects long before December even. Christmas is meant to be a religious festival celebrating the Nativity that starts on the 25th of December and lasts for 12 days until the 5th of January. You must at some point in your life have heard the Christmas carol 'The Twelve Days of Christmas' where each day has an increasing number of gifts? Of course Christianity hijacked the celebration from the pagans who celebrated the winter solstice, the shortest day on the 21/22, as the planet's rebirth when the days start getting longer again and people knew that summer would return and with it plant growth and the crops that sustained life. Of course Christmas for Gillingham now means the rebirth of the Manager. Bit like when they change the Doctor in Doctor Who. The King is Dead. Long Live the King! 🤣

@@pauldurdin6163 Genuinely has no idea about that. I’ll have to have a look into that

@@SPUNKER1000 That was the one downside really, it was a paid bar. I sort of made a throw away comment at the end but it was £55

@@darrenfinnis6938 And a legend

@@davidwilliamgay4821 As long as FGR don’t go up I don’t really mind who it is. Looks like neither relegated side will be bouncing back as well which is a good thing for my money

@@the_footballtourist agree, we dont want Mr Vegan back in the football league for a while. No crowds also

@@davidwilliamgay4821 Right you are, although I wish I knew how windy it would be so I could’ve picked a slightly less cold ground. The bovvy running out was a real shame, especially seeing people drinking it after the news to rub salt in the wounds! Out of interest Dave have you a Berlin based club you support?

@@davidwilliamgay4821 It was a tough choice on the day after the entire team were so abject! I’d take a break to if I was you. Welcome aboard I hope you enjoy my trips around Kent (where I’m indeed based!) and beyond at least the hospitality showing was good to make up for a dross performance

You’re right there. Is Tilbury that bad?

@@Will3hep It wasn’t the best and now I know why, was absolutely freezing! Still enjoyed the trip

@@dolphusmeyer Thanks man 🙏 it was nice to be able to go in the warm at half time as well

@DavidGay-mu1yo That’s so true. Off the field the owners have made the match day experience so much better, but unfortunately that doesn’t win you games and the squad needs an overhaul

@@hdyby4l930 it’s good to see you guys have kicked on since I came!

@callumkent7155 I honestly don’t know, but usually the away allocations in Spain are small because the league change the schedule so much travelling is impossible. So maybe Sevilla just got what everyone gets?

@@JamesTingley-c2r I think the away end definitely gives the ground a bad rep and since the Galison’s have come in the match day experience has become a lot nicer (I remember the food under Scally 🥴). The hospitality was very good too overall especially for a league two side!

@pyro7598 My pleasure! Obviously when it’s just one game you can never really know how a team plays, but from what I saw you guys looked very solid and capable of seeing games out which will do you well in the playoffs I reckon. As for the wind factory I wish I’d known that before coming in the middle of winter 😅 guess I got the proper experience!

@@no_soy_rubio Was that line your beat? Someone definitely had some kind of party on that table but it wasn’t recent 😅 looking back the video didn’t do it justice. They were in good voice today too despite not having a great deal to sing about, would recommend their ground as well Clarence Park, need to get round to visiting Worthing myself at some point!

@@smithsRus83 If I’d have known it would be so windy at the ground I’d have delayed my visit until the summer 😅 did enjoy my visit though!

@@mariasummers-r9e I think it’s pretty strange to have Christmas related things up after New Year’s Day but that’s because presumably the run up to Christmas keeps starting from further back every year!

Agreed, 12 nights before and 12 nights after

@@tonygledhill8827 He didn’t, no idea if he would’ve made if he did but alas he didn’t. I’ll definitely say games at night suit Priestfield a lot more

@@markygee194 I couldn’t think the minute he came off in my head that many beers in 😅 you’re right though it was probably 70ish

@@adrianpope3182 Well played. My mate didn’t put anything on it, hope you did at least!

@@the_footballtourist I didn't! So we saw Mark Bonner's last game

@ I just saw! Can’t say I’m surprised what an atrocious set of performances and results, something had to change

@@no_soy_rubio I’ll bet he wishes he did! But I don’t think so. I thought it was a good offering for the price in all honesty, you couldn’t do it every time and you probably don’t want to watch much of Gillingham right now 😅 as for Harris it’s an interesting one, given how his time ended I’d be surprised if he wanted to come back but he was clearly there for a reason 🤔

Would that be the same n harris ( he's not worth capital letters ! ) who rocked up at Cambridge saying what a great club we are and wafted on about his connections to the city and then buggered off after 3months ? Things not going great for Gills at the moment , but stick with Mark Bonner ; really good manager and genuine person

@hillstfan3735 we're on a similar run to you were on when you got rid. Only we haven't had the good times of beating teams like Newcastle and Birmingham like you did. Losing at home to Accrington Stanley, Harrogate, Newport, Bromley etc just isn't acceptable.

@@hillstfan3735Bonner is shit, he’s absolutely ruining us!! Tactically inept…bring back Harris any day over him Can’t wait until he gets sacked

@Kiddyaremassive-p7k I’ve added it to my list. Thanks for the recommendation 🫡

@@luketaylor6536 I know right 😅 he was still going around when we left. Must be worse than most punishments

Spot on prediction by your mate, terrible evening for the Gills 👎 great video Tom 👍🏻⚽️

@ He took one look at the form and picked it. I honestly have never seen a Gills team this abject, surely a decision needs to be made?

@@the_footballtourist well that decision has been made 👍🏻⚽️

@ how do you feel about it?

@chester8849 Since when am I meant to be neutral? Don’t be ridiculous

your bio says u watch the beautiful game from non league to cl. that shows u watch loads of teams. if u want a good fanbase then don’t be bias which you clearly are. channel should be called the dover tourist u doughnut

@theminecraftflake343 100% if Dover don’t get out of this league quickly there will be worry that they’ll start to feel they belong there. It can easily be done so need to get upwardly mobile and at least back to the National League South

@@trainspotterandfootballfan5991 I don’t have too many thoughts if I’m honest. I wish him well though!

@@jurgenvoogt1638 Thank you very much 😁

@@elaineblackhurst1509 That was more the aim than anything, of course the title was a bit of hyperbole but at the end of the day the atmosphere at games like this have a far better atmospheres than those higher up the pyramid that’s for sure. Whichever is the biggest or best is purely personal preference 😁

@ You’re right, though l don’t think there is any such thing as a ‘biggest’ or ‘best’ derby at all as any derby at any level is most important to supporters concerned, whilst City v Utd, Newcastle v Sunderland, Luton v Watford, Curzon Ashton v Ashton Utd, or any number of London derbies are pretty much meaningless.

@@obaboiio Magdeburg are having a very good season this year so I would definitely recommend it. Germany is one of if not my favourite place to watch football too

@ yeah i love german football thats why i want to go in to it more and starting to support a team but cant decide Hertha or Magdeburg

@ If you line it up right you could probably visit both in a weekend (like I did) and if you do that you can decide who you like more afterwards?

@ After seeing both yourself, who would you say?

@ I personally preferred Hertha just about I would say but it’s a tough call. I got on with their fans a lot more as someone who didn’t speak very much German at the time FCM wasn’t the easiest but the atmosphere at both games was great

@@loyalroyal FA Cup make it happen!

I hope so been a long time I remember the 70s great games a rivalry

Thank you so much for giving a heart on my comment

@@chrismaynard994 That’s exactly why it caught my eye!

@@2bsure407 I definitely did! Pretty sure it was 0-0 last season as well

@@Wfclocs Because of the M25 I barely made kick off unfortunately. I only saw the smoke lingering afterwards, but there was still plenty during the game to enjoy

@ do you have insta? i'll send them and the woking limbs

@@samuelbarrett9403 Thanks for the recommendation! To be honest I wouldn’t have thought FGR would be involved in a big or intense derby

@ It’s surprising I know. Get yourself to El Glosico if you can matey? Come in the FGR end you will see serious passion! Great vid by the way. 🔥🔥

@ Thank you very much! If it’s on the fixture list next season I’ll definitely try and get there. I’ve heard Yeovil vs Weymouth is quite a feisty one too, not sure if you can confirm?

@ nice one, hopefully we get promoted this year to get it back on next year! 👌😊 Yeah, Yeovil, Weymouth is a good one. A lot of the South West Derbies are very feisty and understated mate.

Cheltenham v FGR? Is that a rivalry born in the Doc martens league in front of 500 fans?😂 even as a Shots fan, I think in comparison you need to give Woking more credit here. 😅

@@Bearuk1 No argument from me

Never been there,but it looks pretty intense!

@@steve9542000 And you guys have a pretty loud support yourselves! From my experience yesterday though it would be hard to argue. There aren’t too many better I’ve experienced
