But it was a day they could be proud of the tributes they paid the 51-year-old, who died on April 11 having had kidney cancer which spread.
Players and staff wore T-shirts before the game featuring a favourite pic of the man they simply called ‘Gee’ or ‘Gee’er’ – while the motto they have adopted is PFG – Playing For Gee.

As for the match, Ramsgate won 4-2 to inflict City’s first defeat since the end of January. That leaves Chi fifth and means they will be away in a play-off semi-final on Tuesday, April 30, to Ramsgate, Cray Valley PM or Sittingbourne – with final league placings to be decided when teams play their last matches next Saturday.
