The Gills tweeted images of two men who they believe could assist them in their enquiries.

A tweet from the club, issued on Sunday night, said: “Late last week we were made aware of a break in at MEMS Priestfield Stadium.

“Valuable items were stolen and we are asking for your help in identifying the persons in the below photographs.”

The club have asked that any information if passed onto their chief exec Tom Lawrence through his email at tlawrence@priestfield.com.

The ground has been closed to supporters since the end of February, with all matches since then played behind closed doors and their banqueting facility closed.

Among the memorabilia at the club is the League 2 trophy, won back in 2013, but it’s not believed to have been among the items taken.

A spokesperson for the club was unable to confirm what was taken.

Kent Police say they are investigating a report of a burglary, which is reported to have happened on Thursday, December 17 between 11.15pm and 11.45pm, where a number of items were reported stolen.

As of Monday no arrests had been made but enquiries are ongoing.
