Watford 2 - Gillingham 2
Published: 17:16, 30 August 2003
Danny Spiller's first league earned Gillingham a share of the spoils as the side twice came from behind to snatch a point at bottom of the table at Watford on Saturday.
The young midfielder headed home in the 63rd minute to level the scores at 2-2 in a pulsating second half.
Gillingham made the worst possible start when slack marking enabled Icelandic international Heidar Helguson to head home in the seventh minute.
Gillingham produced a much improved second half display and equalised in the 52nd minute through Paul Shaw.
Watford were level within a minute through Danny Webber and the goal looked good enough to win the game until Spiller intervened.
Watford were reduced to 10-men in the 89th minute when Neal Ardley was sent off for a professional foul on Mamady Sidibe.
Attendance: 12,793.
