Gillingham assistant manager John Schofield writes exclusively for the KM Group
We've got five games coming up in just 15 days but our lads are
in top condition.
We’ve got matches against York, Barnet, Northampton,
Southend and Bristol Rovers and need to make sure we are the
best team we can be in every game and prepare the best we can.
There won’t be a lot of time for preparation. It’s just about
recovery and ticking over and a lot of it will be back to recycling
the work we did in pre-season.
We make the trip to York this weekend and they have found out
just how tough League 2 is this season. But we have seen that one
team can beat any other on a given day.
The players will have Christmas Day off this year and we
trust them to look after themselves. The good thing is that turkey
is quite a good part of your diet. It’s good lean, white meat.
It’s just those bits and pieces that go with it, things like the
savouries, that the players will have to be careful about.
But the lads know what to eat and they won’t just be hungry for
turkey this Christmas, they’ll be hungry for the three points on
the pitch.
