Why this blog

Was 2006-07 the season I finally fell out of love with football? Well probably not, but it was a very disappointing term. The fault for this must lay with Gillingham, whilst I had no great expectation of them challenging, I did not expect a season where for the most part we were looking over our shoulders at the wrong end of the table. Positive noises have emanated from Priestfield since the last day and because of this I've decided to incorporate the record-taking that I've done for years into one of these new-fangled blogs. The idea is to chronicle the ups and downs of the 2007-08 season as I follow the fortunes of my teams. Hopefully this will manifest itself into a football blog in the wider sense and not just centred around a couple of clubs. The teams that I will be following are:
Gillingham: Have supported the club for 31 years and a season ticket holder.
Tonbridge Angels: The club I've supported all my life.
England: Home and away follower of the national team, hopefully will add a bit of continental flair.

References will also be made to clubs where I have a passing interest such as Manchester United, to be fair more than a passing interest, Tunbridge Wells and my friends teams, Oldham, Wolves, Hastings United and Frome Town. Lets see how it goes, and the start couldn't come much bigger, a trip to the New Wembley for England's first international back home against Brazil. Wouldn't it be lovely to think that it might end up back at the new stadium with Gills making a visit.
