Gillingham v Huddersfield Town
GILLINGHAM midfielder Michael Flynn has spoken of his pride at the prospect of leading his side out at Priestfield on Saturday.
Flynn has been given the team captaincy, while central defender Ian Cox has been handed the role of club captain. Previous skipper Chris Hope left the club in the summer.
Flynn said: "It’s the first time I’ve been captain at any club and it’s the proudest moment of my career."
Jepson added: "He’s ambitious to do well and he’s a leader of men and he’s got hunger and will hopefully lead the lads well on the pitch."
