    I've been watching most of the game, but I missed the goal. According to replays, it was a pin-point side foot by Milner outside the box. I have to say though, Gillingham are giving Villa a run for their money. I believe Gill had more possession in the first half, and they have had a couple of decent chances. I fancy Gillingham to equalize in the second half.

    There is one thing though, I was thinking that it could be good news for us (Arsenal) if Aston Villa stay in the FA Cup. If they get kicked out today, that gives them more focus on kicking Arsenal from the fourth spot in the Premiership... Ya feel me?

    Anyway, I'll fill you in after full-time.

    My prediction: Gillingham 1-3 Aston Villa

    Gillingham have just equalized. A break, and Jackson thumps the ball in off the post. Fantastic play. One-one, and game on.

    Great hustle by Gillingham, but the lack of fitness was evident at the end of the match. Young was brought down in the box by Miller (I think), and Milner slotted it home. There were no other chances, to be honest.

    Milner got Man of the Match, and Young was surprisinly bad.
