Anyone who went to Northampton and watched the first round tie would have been struck by the utterly shambolic performance of the hosts that day sitting as they do a League above us. Chatting to a couple of their faithful after the game they were utterly dejected wondering where their season would go next. Even I was forced to wonder how Northampton's form would react to the defeat such was the poverty of their performance.
As it turned out they then recorded three consecutive league victories lifting them above the relegation zone.
Football is a game played on a pitch but often won largely between the ears of those playing it.
A win against Gillingham would help (dare I say it?) our promotion hopes. They're sitting 7th. A win would put us nine points clear of them - with an excellent chance of at least finishing in a play-off position.
