Lincoln and Gillingham did not meet for the first time until 1963 due to being placed in opposite sections of the original Third Division. They have played each other regularly since that time, although curiously they have never been drawn together in a cup competition. Gillingham have the advantage with twenty wins to Lincoln’s sixteen due to a dominant record during the last quarter of a century – Lincoln have beaten Gillingham only three times in the last thirteen games.
Playing connections include Alan Walker, Gary West, Steve Brown, Dennis Bailey, Leo Fortune-West, Paul Pettinger, David Puttnam, Mike Pollitt, Luke Howell, Tony Bullock, Aaron Brown, Delroy Facey, John Nutter, Craig Rocastle, Albert Jarrett, Mark McCammon, Josh Gowling, Rene Howe, Tony Sinclair, Gavin Hoyte, Chris Herd, Billy Knott, Jordan Roberts, John Akinde and Vadaine Oliver, all of whom have spent time on the books of both clubs during the last 30 years.
