Gillingham manager Peter Taylor told BBC Radio Kent:
"I'm delighted for Coventry to be back at their stadium. Their supporters deserve to see their team and it is terrific they are going home.
"We don't want them to start off with a win there but I am delighted for the club and their supporters that they are going back there.
"I guarantee a lot of their team have never played there and won't be used to it, so I think it is a good time to go there.
"I think they're talking about 20-odd thousand being there but I think our players will relish it."

Is he right? Do you think nerves will affect our squad?

It will be like a cup game at a neutral venue but with our support 28/1 over there's. No idea how this will turn out ?

We've never scored at a sell out. (Crewe and Chelski)

Tomorrow is a time to show CCFC fans and the fair weathers/ occasional/ once a season fans, they can live up to expectations and draw the fans back :)

A win tomorrow will mean the world to me.

There or their - it's not difficult FFS!

Anyway, it's possible that the occasion might get to the young lads. It's up to the experienced guys to make sure that they settle down.

Will be like two away teams playing each other. Taylor has a point regarding a good time to play us, it's up to us fans to become our twelfth man and cheer us victory.

Nothing new for us there! 46 away games last season, one more won't hurt ;)

well it could be another JPT occasion where we just didn't turn up or the players could really thrive on it. On Talksport they said that Willis has been playing in and out of the team for the last 18 months but never played at the Ricoh (cov kid and all that) which is an interesting and sad fact.

I think the players will be up for it, we need to get behind them for the game and concentrate on supporting them rather than the negative SISU out part (for tonight at least)

I think they will be up for it too. The difference with this game to all the others is that there was something really big on the back of the other games (Crewe JPT, Wembley prize), Chelsea in the cup and games where we could go top 6 etc.

Tonight will be more like the last ever game at HR and the first ever game at the Ricoh where we thrashed teams. Tonight will all be about the feel good factor, with not so much on the game. It's not a must win for us other than in terms of wanting the missing fans to return again next week.

I am very confident tonight. I think the players will be swept along in a sea of emotion and I think we will win well.

I was encouraged to hear Steven Pressley state that the players were going to play the GAME and not the occasion. I feel for the JPT Crewe game that didn't happen not helped by the formation change that the then manager switched to for that one game. Of course we cant be certain that the players won't be struck by stage fright... but listening to the managers comments I fell he is doing all that he can to level the anticipation in their minds.

technically QPR was a sell out (even if not 30k) as we were only allowed to sell 23k - and won 3-0
