Are Gillingham the least interesting football club in England?

Was thinking about this today when I saw we were playing them on Saturday, are Gillingham the least interesting football club in the country? What do you think of when you think of them? That Hesenthaler bloke, the M25 and maybe throwing away that lead against Man City in a Play Off final?!
 
Are they known as the half pints?

Larry's interested in them. He said on Radio Lancs something like, "They'll be different from Southend because they have big boys in the box". 😀
 
They'd have to go some to be less interesting than Reading. Or Crawley.

maybe them and Colchester
 
A word of caution re Gillingham.
They're unbeaten in 11 games (W4 D7). Aggregate goals 11-6.
So given their form, their style of play and the tight nature of their matches, a win - any win - on Tuesday would be a big plus.
 
Their ground has to be in one of the strangest locations - isn't it in the middle of a load of houses?

Brylcreem, are you thinking of Luton?The away turnstiles take you up some steps overlooking someone's back garden.

Priestfield is in a housing estate, but it is less than five minutes walk from the railway station.
 
That death trap away end springs to my mind first when I think of The Gills. Like our own Gene Kelly stand but bigger. Thank God we got forced to get rid in Prem season
