Gillingham's five-day trip to
Yorkshire will be "no holiday camp," insists boss Martin Allen.
A visit to Bradford on Saturday is
followed by a game in York on Tuesday and the squad will be staying
north for the duration.
Allen said: "The chairman has been
good to keep us up there for both games, which is fantastic. That
is the best thing for preparation.
"It is a long journey and games now
are massive. They are all important and we want to make sure the
preparation is spot on.
"It’s not a holiday camp. We need to
train and need to work and it helps people to get to know each
other a bit better."
Gillingham will train at Leeds
United’s Thorp Arch facility, near Wetherby and Allen added: "The
best way to get to know each other is on the training pitch."
