- During the 1920–21 English football season, Gillingham F.C. competed in the Football League for the first time. The team had previously played in Division One of the Southern League, but in 1920 the Football League decided to add a Third Division to its existing set-up and did so by absorbing the entire Southern League Division One. Prior to the season, the club apparently appointed Robert Brown as manager, but the arrangement turned out to be a casual one and he accepted another job before the season had started. Under his replacement, John McMillan, Gillingham's results in their first season in the Football League were poor, including a spell of more than three months without a league victory, and at the end of the season they finished bottom of the league table. Gillingham also competed in the FA Cup, being elimated in the sixth qualifying round. The team played 45 competitive matches, winning 10, drawing 12 and losing 23. Tommy Hall was the team's top goalscorer; he scored nine goals in Third Division matches and two in the FA Cup. He was one of three players who tied for the most appearances made during the season: Hall, Jack Branfield and Jock Robertson each missed only one game. The highest attendance recorded at the club's home ground, Priestfield Road, was approximately 12,000 for games against Southampton on 28 August and Millwall on 30 October. (en)
