During the 2005–06 English football season, Gillingham F.C. competed in Football League One, the third tier of the English football league system. It was the 74th season in which Gillingham competed in the Football League and the 56th since the club was voted back into the league in 1950. It was Gillingham's first season in the third tier of the English league system since 2000, following the team's relegation from the Football League Championship at the end of the previous season. Prior to the season, Neale Cooper was appointed as the club's new manager, but after a poor start to the campaign he resigned from the role in mid-November with Gillingham in 22nd place out of 24 teams in the league table, a position which if maintained would result in relegation to Football League Two at the end of the campaign. His assistant, Ronnie Jepson, was appointed on a temporary basis but ultimately remained in the role for the remainder of the season. The team's results quickly improved, and they had climbed to 17th place by the end of 2005. Although a lengthy run without a win in February and March, culminating in a 6–0 defeat to Bristol City, led to Gillingham slipping back to 21st place and once again being in danger of relegation, they then won six consecutive games and ended the season in 14th place. The club also competed in three knock-out tournaments. In the FA Cup, they were defeated in the first round by Burscough, a team playing in the seventh tier of English football, in what was seen as a shock result. In the Football League Cup, Gillingham defeated Portsmouth of the top-tier FA Premier League before being eliminated in the third round. They also reached the second round of the Football League Trophy. Gillingham played 52 competitive matches, winning 19, drawing 13, and losing 20. Darren Byfield was the team's top goalscorer with 14 goals. Andrew Crofts made the most appearances, missing only one game. The highest attendance recorded at the club's home ground, Priestfield Stadium, was 8,128 for a league game against Southend United in October.
