Doncaster Rovers 0 Gillingham 1: Reaction from Gills boss Neil Harris as Charlie Kelman scores winner in League 1 relegation battle

Gillingham were hanging on at the end against Doncaster but boss Neil Harris insists he was feeling calm on the sideline.

It was a fourth win in nine games for Harris as his adopted team continue to push towards safety - it’s the kind of form that over the course of a season would have left the Gills challenging for the play-offs. Gillingham had only won three games in their previous 28 before the former Millwall boss was appointed.

The play-offs are not to be for the Gills unfortunately but a 1-0 win at Doncaster leaves them level on points with the team outside of the relegation zone. It's big progress for a team who not long ago were being written off as League 2-bound.

Speaking after their latest positive outing, Harris said: “With only one goal in it, with so much at stake, you do fear that they may score a goal but there was a shot across the box that was never going in really, Pontus (Dahlberg, the goalkeeper) makes one good save and I actually thought we were more likely to score the second goal, from a counter-attack or a set-play.

“I was quite calm to be honest, I trusted my team and we didn’t have a lot of options on my bench to change the team or effect the game, the players on the pitch at the end were players I thought I could rely on shape wise and I felt relatively comfortable.

“I can control it with my subs and with my (team’s) shape but sometimes when you have very, very limited options, there is not a lot going through your mind.”

That’s how much it means!
