Gillingham fans salute caretaker boss Steve Lovell after Rotherham win

09:00, 29 October 2017

Gillingham fans show their appreciation towards interim boss Steve Lovell after a surprise win over Rotherham on Saturday.

Two goals from Josh Parker and one for Tom Eaves led the Gills to a 3-1 victory over their promotion-chasing hosts.

Lovell has been in charge on a caretaker boss and is keen to take the job full-time. Fans made their feelings clear after the win at Rotherham.

It's now two wins, a draw and a defeat for Lovell in the four games he has taken charge of.

The long-time coach and former player took over following Peter Taylor's resignation. Taylor had been in charge following Ady Pennock's departure a month ago.

Gills fans are waiting for chairman Paul Scally to make a decision on who he thinks can take over as their next permanent manager. One of those hoping to get the job, Graham Westley, was in the crowd again on Saturday.
