It has been 47 years since Gillingham last beat Exeter City at St.Jamess Park (Exeters ground, not Newcastles), and it looks like it will be another year before they get a chance again.It was a poor performance by the Gills yesterday, as Zeke Nnaji Jersey they lost 3-0. And it was even worse for me, as I wasted 30 of my money and 14 hours Nikola Jokic Jersey of my day to travel down to the Southwest to watch them!A poor performance by Gillingham, and one that saw them3-0 down at half time. They responded in the second half, having several half chances and even hitting the post through Albert Jarrett, but it was not to be as the Gills suffered their third away defeat in a row.For what its worth, here is an account of Exeter Citys three goals, in a fantastic performance for the Grecians (Exeters nickname):1-0: A nightmare start for the Greg Whittington Jersey Gills as they went behind with just seven minutes gone. Veteran forward Marcus Stewart sent a deep cro s to the far post for Richard Logan to head home and givehisside the lead.2-0: Five minutes from half-time and Exeter City made it 2-0. Ryan Harley had an initial effort saved by Gills keeper Simon Royce, but Adam Stansfield was on hand to sweep in Vlatko CanCar Jersey the rebound to double the Grecians lead.3-0: Only minutes later and Exeter decided to score a third. Adam Stansfield felt likehis second of the game, as he capitalised on a Carmelo Anthony Jersey defensive error by John Nutter andbeat Garry Richards before placing his shot past Simon Royce.Three-nil to the Grecians and game over for the not-so mighty Gills, and their dejected fans, who made the 5 hour journey all the way to Devon in the Southwest of England, for nothing. |
