Gillingham have rescheduled their home Johnstone’s Paint Trophy area semi-final for Saturday, December 6

The Gills were left without a game that weekend following their first round elimination from the FA Cup.

The weekend is reserved for second round matches.

But with Orient also out of the FA Cup, the decision has been made to move the Trophy match. Kick-off will be 3pm.

Gillingham beat Orient 3-2 in a thrilling game at Priestfield on Saturday.

The winners of the Trophy semi-final will meet either Bristol City or Coventry City in the area final, which is played over two legs.

Wembley hosts the final, when the southern winners play the northern winners.

Adults prices for the match are £12, concessions £6 and £1 for under-12s.

Gillingham, meanwhile, will play Dartford in the second round of the Kent Senior Cup at Priestfield on Wednesday, December 10 (7.45pm Kick-off).
