We owe our fans, says Gillingham manager Mark Stimson

Manager Mark Stimson may not be
flavour of the month with Gillingham’s fans, but that didn’t stop
him praising those who followed the team to Brentford on Saturday
in great numbers.
The fact the journey was one of the
shortest of the season made a difference, but Stimson said: "The
support from the warm-up onwards was absolutely fantastic like it
was last year.
"I said to the players before the game
that to have that many people still chanting and wanting us to do
well, after what we have done away from home this season deserved
something back, and didn’t get it."
Gillingham lost the game 4-0, but
Stimson added: "My message to them against Tranmere is come
along, expect us to be on the front foot, get behind the team as
much as possible, and express their feelings in the right and
positive way."
