WILLIAMS' LATE GOAL IS A KILLER FOR TOWN

Veteran Shaun nicks Gills victory

- Tom Harle

GILLINGHAM manager Neil Harris hailed his side’s fighting spirit as they got back to winning ways with a last-gasp three-point haul over Harrogate Town.

The Gills looked set to chalk up a third successive game without a win as chances came and went and their momentum was punctured by a long delay due to an injury to Town’s Sam Folarin.

But veteran Shaun Williams struck four minutes into 16 added on at the end of the second half, firing home a rebound to send Harris’ side top of the table after seven games and leaving the visitors fourth bottom.

“ Huge credit to the whole group,” said Harris. “We were solid throughout and we looked reliable.

“That’s seven wins in ten games now, we’re doing enough and I have to be pleased with that.

“Despite not being at our best and making some poor decisions, we still dominated the game, and we got our reward late on.
