GILLINGHAM defender Ian Cox revealed he was "over the moon" after the club secured a clean sheet and maximum points on Saturday.

The 2-0 win over Carlisle was the first time this season the Gills had finished a game without conceding and it was a timely lift for the defender.

Cox said: "We kept a clean sheet, scored two goals and got the three points – it was a good day all round for us.

"Being a defender, getting a clean sheet is like being a forward and getting goals.

"It’s given me great pleasure keeping the clean sheet because it’s been a long time coming."

Heading into the game Gillingham had conceded 28 league goals, the second-worst in the division.
