Full-back Clark, new to the team this season, said: “The rivalry has been mentioned and that gives us a bit more energy. We will want to fight for the club and fans. “If it is a passionate one for the fans, it is a passionate one for us.

We all want to win games, especially Swindon away. If it is one of the rivalries then we will be looking to get one up on them.” Gillingham have promotion aims this season but have already lost six of their 14 games, with the lowest scoring record of any teams in the division, netting just 13 goals so far.

Keith Millen’s been in temporary charge since Neil Harris was sacked on October 5 and Clark knows they need to start upping their game, with or without a manager.
