Gillingham captain Barry Fuller is telling his team-mates to put Saturday’s defeat at Bristol Rovers behind them and focus on Tuesday's game with Yeovil.

He said: "I will try and get the boys going in training on Monday and ready to go for Tuesday. It’s another big game for us,

"Yeovil are around us and we know we have to take the points off them. Our home form is brilliant and we’ll just hope it stays like that until we start picking up points away from home."

Saturday’s away defeat was Gillingham’s eighth of the season but Fuller sees no reason why they should be struggling on the road.

"That defeat hurt," he said. "We knew it was going to be tough and we dug in. We’re walking away again saying we’ve got nothing when maybe we deserved something. We can’t keep saying that if we don’t get the points, nobody is going to give you any.

"We’ve just got to knuckle down when we’re away from home and get something.

"We don’t know what it is and we don’t prepare any differently. We’re trying to put it right.

"We’re so good at home and pass the ball on our pitch that maybe isn’t as good as some that we come to.

"Some of the pitches we’ve been to this year have been immaculate and we haven’t passed the ball that well, so we don’t know what that is, but we have to get it out of our system as quick as possible.

"Yeovil is the most important game now and we know we have to get the three points."
