Gillingham manager Mark Stimson faces an attacking dilemma following the return to full fitness of 17-goal striker Simeon Jackson.

Jackson is ready to return to the starting line-up following injury ahead of an exciting finale that will make or break Gillingham’s season.

Gills boss Stimson, pictured, now has an array of strikers in form and he’ll need to pick wisely ahead of Saturday's trip to promotion-chasing Millwall.

Stimson said: "It’s good options and good headaches to have.

"Simeon played and came on the other day (against Southend) and looked sharp. That’s massive for us. He could be important because he can get a goal out of nothing."

Stimson is hoping that whoever does play will be in top form as they face a team unbeaten in nine games.

"We are looking forward to the challenge," said Stimson.

"We haven’t won away from home for a long time so it’s going to be a good game. If we can go and put in a performance like we did at Charlton, then we won’t be far off getting something."
