Kevin Maher watched Gillingham's 1-0 defeat against Grays from the stands on Saturday and manager Mark Stimson is hoping that’s a good sign.

"I’m just waiting for the phone call now," said Stimson.

"He’s got a couple of deals on the table but I see it as a good sign that he was actually in the stand watching.

"I don’t want to tempt fate but I think that’s a plus."

Maher is considering offers from Gillingham as well as League 1 pair Swindon and Oldham.
