Identity & place
What this club is really about
New Brompton bought the Priestfield site when the club began. Gillingham lost their League place in 1938, returned, nearly fell out again in 1993 and entered receivership in 1995. Five years later they reached the second tier. The Rainham End, the Brian Moore's Head fanzine and memories of Swindon ties give those years their own voices. The ground has changed around them, although the temporary away end has lasted more than twenty years.
