John Nutter celebrated success on
the Wembley turf for the second time in three seasons in the League
2 play-off win over Shrewsbury on Saturday, but there was no
question over which win meant more.
The left-back was a member of manager
Mark Stimson’s 2007 FA Trophy-winning team at Stevenage and has
played more minutes than any other squad member for the Gills this
term.
"It’s doubly as nice," said the
26-year-old. "There was so much at stake for the club and it was
such an important game. We got the win that we deserved.
"It’s better than last time and I
can’t put it into words, it’s more of an achievement certainly and
it’s fantastic. It’s the best way to go up and we nicked it at the
end – I’m buzzing."
Nutter helped the side to their fifth
clean sheet in six games. "We have a settled back four and we’ve
all done well," he added. "We defended from the front and we’re an
organised side now. We’re looking decent and hopefully we can keep
that going.
"We were pleased with how we played on
Saturday. They had a little spell in the second half but we dug in,
stood strong, and got what we deserved."
