The 'Fleet First' Campaign
Published by Ed Miller on Nov 11, 2004
| 428 Signatures |
Target: Gravesham Borough Council & interested parties
Region: United Kingdom
Web site: http://www.whitebucket.net
Background (Preamble):
Gravesend & Northfleet Football Club faces the biggest threat in its 60-year history if plans to relocate Gillingham FC to the borough come to
fruition.
fruition.
Petition:
Moving Gillingham from their spiritual home would bring them into direct conflict with Gravesend &
Northfleet, Dartford and Charlton who enjoy strong support in the area. It would also alienate many of
their fans, 50% of which are based in Medway.
Fleet supporters are protesting against the proposal
and will be engaging with disaffected Gillingham
supporters and fans of football throughout the
country to fight these plans.
Fleet fans are arguing that to relocate Gillingham
outside Medway smacks of Franchise FC - MK Dons
- a move motivated by money. But to move the Gills
to within a mile of an existing, prospering
Conference club shows a heartless disregard for the
feelings of supporters of both clubs.
Please lend your support to the campaign by
