Boss Justin Edinburgh is determined to get Gillingham’s home form back on track.

Edinburgh led the Gills to a 4-2 win over promotion-chasing MK Dons during his first match in charge at Priestfield but they haven’t won at home since.

Two draws and two defeats have ended the team’s hopes of a push towards the play-offs and Edinburgh wants that form to change.

Bradford are the visitors on Saturday and the Gills would put a serious dent in the Yorkshire side’s own hopes of making the play-offs with a win.

Edinburgh said: “There is no getting away from that – our home form hasn’t been good enough. That is something we have to put right.

“We have a few more games between now and the end of the season and have to do better.

“It is disappointing and frustrating. We have to keep going and make sure we finish positively. That is the mindset, the aim and the drive.”

Gills lost 1-0 at home to Fleetwood on Good Friday but almost bounced back on Easter Monday, going 3-1 up against Leyton Orient, before conceding twice and drawing 3-3.
