I have come here to play games, score goals and help Gillingham and it was great to have done all three last Saturday against Coventry.

I am critical of myself at times, though, and maybe I could have got another.

There were a few chances where, if I was fitter and sharper, I could have done a little better with. It was just down to timing and getting to know the other boys a bit more and what they are good at. It was good to get off the mark and hopefully I can crack on and get a couple more. We didn’t celebrate my goal for long because we just wanted to get on with it and go again, because we had them on the ropes.

They didn’t really give us many problems apart from the penalty and the chance Simeon pulled wide in the first half. They were the only two shots I could remember.

The keeper made a good save from myself in the first half. Had I shanked it, the ball might have gone in underneath him but I caught it too well.

We had a few other half chances, with Hess hitting the bar. We were knocking on the door and said at half-time it was just a case of getting one and then we could win. Decisions do level themselves over the season. We got the penalty at the weekend and I wasn’t sure – their player got the ball but also the player and it depends on how the referee looks at it.

It took us 80-odd minutes to get the first goal but we got two more after that and we’re feeling pretty upbeat after the result.

I made the decision to come here because I wanted to play football and it didn’t matter that there wasn’t a manager here. I wasn’t playing at Millwall. I had been on loan at a couple of League 2 clubs and got the chance to come here and play League 1.
