After Gillingham’s 1-0 home win against Morecambe at the weekend, hopes were high for the Gills as they travelled to Wales to take on Newport County.
But any optimism for another positive result quickly evaporated as the Gills conceded an early opener, then shipped two more in a disastrous opening 45 minutes.
Then, when attempting to chase the game, the starting XI was left on the field for the entire 90 minutes as they tried hard, but ultimately failed, to get back into the game. Only a scrappy late effort from Jimmy-Jay Morgan gave the travelling Gills support any cause for celebration.
Following another disappointing display, Tom takes the helm for the latest episode of The ME7 Podcast as he unpacks the talking points after another morale-sapping defeat.
