Rotherham 3 Gillingham 2

GILLINGHAM slipped to a second defeat in four days at Rotherham last night when they were unlucky not to snatch a point with a last-ditch revival.

Trailing by three goals after Mark Robins had given Rotherham a 33rd minute lead, which John Mullin increased in the 48th minute and Nick Daws in the 52nd, Gillingham fought back heroically.

They pulled back a goal through Iffy Onoura in the 76th minute and then produced a barnstorming finish when Marlon King made it 3-2 in the 85th. A minute later Guy Ipoua hit the bar when it seemed easier to score.
